HOME AWAY FROM HOME
The Berkeley is my home away from home. I stay here often and they never fail to take excellent care of me. From check in to check out the staff always goes above and beyond the call to insure my stay is a pleasant one.

Great location, great view, great staff!
Finding any kind of balcony in the city is hard, so we ended up in a King Terrace suite at the Berkeley. What a great decision! Seeing the sun set and rise over the city was breathtaking, and the room itself was beautiful, too. Staff was extremely kind and helpful. Outside of the hotel, many of my favorite RVA spots were just within walking distance. I will be back again!

So Disappointed
The service at the Berkeley has really gone down over the years. We were expecting an elegant stay and that wasn't at all what we received. In the past service was impeccable. This time the employees were annoyed they had to work.

Private Luncheon
We had a private luncheon for 40 in the Christopher Newport room. Planning the event was super easy and the day of the event, everything went seamlessly. Staff was very professional and helpful. We will definitely host more events here!

Very Enjoyable Stay
We stayed at the Berkeley Feb 9 - 12, 2020. We were very happy with the location as we walked to almost everything we wanted to see. The hotel was very quiet which is something we always look for. The hotel staff especially Starlett and Beverly really made us feel comfortable and appreciated.
