The Jefferson Hotel
Great hotel and great staff.. our only real negative feedback is that the gym is middling at best if we are being charitable… and realistically disappointing relative to the hotel’s overall high price/high value positioning in the market. you all can do better!! equipment, lay-out etc etc ...

Linden Row Inn
Account for parking ahead - I had to go to a public lot a few blocks away but it isn't expensive anywhere around and I had no issues really, just had to figure it out. Really cool place to stay for a bit of Richmond history and very walkable area.
