Hotels Near Raleigh Park in Norfolk

So it was a quick in and out . Dropped car off at airport and just needed place with a shuttle for the morning. The two shuttle drivers were excellent. The lady who checked me in and the young guy who checked me out , both very good as well. Service was good , but the customer interaction was even better .

My family and I needed a short stay in Norfolk and I found this place. When we arrived, we were greeted nicely. I needed adjoining rooms, but the hotel was booked. The lady at the front desk accommodated me very nicely and I was happy. The breakfast was good and plentiful. There was access to water, tea and coffee at all times. And we were very close to the outlets. I recommend this place.

Would not recommend this hotel for families (anyone, really). Our experience here was a NIGHTMARE. Management is poorly trained and rude to customers as well as their own staff. I felt unsafe in the environment the managers created through their aggressive and threatening body language and verbal confrontations with hotel guests. It was an incredibly unpleasant and stressful weekend . Customers are not permitted in the lobby after 11pm; the manager sends them to their rooms. Yes, even adult guests. Expect to be clearly informed that the alternative will be eviction. How’s that for hospitality? On the second night of our stay there was a fire alarm. Again management demonstrated their poor training and interpersonal skills. It was clear they had no plan to support the safety of guests during the emergency. Manager Rob and Manager Joel were anything but calm and orderly, and instead screamed at guests streaming out of the lobby exit that they needed to get out of the way. No, I didn’t write this incorrectly. They were screaming for guests to get out of the way. Apparently no concern for whether guests were inside the building or not, or for keeping people safe. They even yelled at kids who had evacuated from the pool and were soaking wet, ordering them out into the 30 degree night with no towels. (A kind staff member later brought towels. Thank you, Stephanie). After the building was cleared by the fire department (false alarm) Manager Rob and Manager Joel then yelled at all guests who had returned to the lobby that the pool, bar and entire lobby was CLOSED for the night. All (PAYING!) guests were sent to our rooms at 9:45!!! Really there are so many other hotel options in the area that there is no reason to choose this one.

The room was very clean

Awesome

This hotel was clean, and the front desk staff welcoming. Be advised that there are no suites at this hotel with 2 beds. The 2-Queen rooms are smaller than the standard 2 queen rooms at other hotels, and they do not include an unholstered chair or corner desk with desk chair. Instead, there's a nightstand sized bureau, a long table under the walled TV, a desk chair, and a backless cushioned stool chair. Maximum occupancy is 4. I had offered an overnight stay to my niece and sister who wanted an extra day in the area for the beach and was surprised to find upon check-in that there was no sofa bed in my 2 Queen room. We reviewed the Hotel's online photos which were very misleading, since none of the 2 bd rooms are suites or include a sofa bed. Be advised that the suites have 1 King bd and a sofa bed in a studio or separated configuration. The separated configuration only has an upholstered chair. Breakfast was adequate, clean and nicely labeled, and the free airport shuttle was great. I could have paid less at another hotel for more room and the room accommodations I received though.

While booking our room there was a special request area on the website, I advised them that our arrival time would be rather late. Within a few minutes I had an email from them assuring me that it would not be a problem. Very comforting response. They were very welcoming upon our arrival, our room was neat, clean and comfortable. The air conditioner was already on so our room temperature was comfortable. The bed was comfortable. The center courtyard was a pleasant place to relax. We were looking for an independent small place, and we scored on this one. We would definitely stay there again.

The location is convenient and quiet, the room is suitable for business trips, spacious and comfortable, clean and hygienic, and the breakfast is delicious.

Up to the usual (low) standard I often see at an HGI. This one was last cleaned properly before COVID and the main issue is staffing. The receptionist was the rudest, most disinterested person I've had the displeasure of interacting with. The whole interaction just left me shaking my head as to how someone with such poor interpersonal skills could end up in this customer-facing position... The room itself was tired, dirty and depressing. It was a suite, but the main room was a huge space with a single sofa shoved in the corner. The bed was very worn, with a big impression in the space where 1000's of bodies have been before. The shower was a walk in that left a huge pool of water on the floor and the water took ages to run warm. Breakfast was another example of where cost-cutting is king. There was one server and one cook, and it took 30 minutes to get an omelette . I don't blame the server, she was running around like crazy, there just weren't enough staff for the volume of people at breakfast. There was also a very poor selection of fruit, yogurt etc. Just minimal effort. Overall a very disheartening stay. I won't be coming back!
