This Hotel is very clean, quite, and a great location on the riverfront. My wife and visit Wilmington alot, we have just found a perfect location for a quite getaway. We loved our room located on the 1st floor looking out on the river, and across to the U S.S North Carolina. Yes we will be staying here again in the near future. 10 out of 10 Stars.

Good visit. Elevator was out while we were there and had to walk up several flights. The door to the room did not latch and therefore the room could also not be locked. Discovered this after sleeping overnight. Door open outside to balcony so this made us feel unsafe in retrospect. River view and location were great tho!

Very friendly staff, and great location. The only issue we had is that our room had a strong musky scent. As the hotel sits on the river, this may be common, but I would think that the hotel could do something (eg de-humidifiers) to improve this situation l.

The Hotel is in need of an overhaul, it is outdated and needs repairs. The towel rod in the bathroom was loose and fell when I hung the towel back on the rod after a shower. The paint on the walls needs a fresh coat, the shower grout needs to be replaced and the wood decor on the exterior soffit is hanging in ff the building and will fall at any minute. The staff is friendly and the views from our room were fantastic.

As an unintended stop on a family road trip,,, I didn’t want to leave this place! We stayed in this hotel and couldn’t have been more pleased, but it was really this entire area of Wilmington that I really fell in love with! We just had an evening out on the waterfront and then got back on the road in the morning, but I will be looking for every and any excuse to come back to Wilmington, stay as long as I can, and would love to stay at this hotel or at least very near it!
