It was a lovely hotel. The room was generously sized. It was clean and the staff was courteous and helpful. The restaurant was excellent for breakfast. The only thing that could be a concern for some guests is that noisy heating/air conditioning in room. It didn’t bother me but some guests might find it annoying. I strongly recommend this hotel.

The room was clean, quiet, comfortable, and simple. The front desk was kind and helpful. I didn’t realize I was required to use the valet and the fee of $37 each day. It was hard to find good places to eat nearby. It was rather pricey for the experience.

We reserved a suite and expected more from a 4-star hotel. Two small windows and a pretty awkward room. We saw the room across the hall and it was much nicer, and probably the same rate. Unfortunate. Other than that, the service and people are nice. The location was good as well.

This is our second stay at The Commonwealth as a family. We stay here because it has proximity to the Richmond Convention Hall and the suites are large and comfortable for a family of 5. The hotel is clean and pleasant. The bed is comfortable. The suites have a microwave and fridge. The only downside is the staff. We used valet (the only option) and had to wait an hour for our car. Once I realized how late the car was, my kids and I walked to the Convention leaving my husband to wait. We missed our first session. I asked for that day's valet (about $35) to be comped and I got a runaround about needing to speak with the GM who was not there.

Valet parking is the only option and it was a comedy of delays both days. The restaurant and bar is limited to say the least. Had to request a crib three times before it arrived. Amazing building but feels like the operation is run on a shoe string.
