Richmond is a fun city to visit and the Berkeley Hotel is perfectly located for accessing everything. Business travelers who might have business downtown and can easily walk there. The hotel is right off the highway for quick commute to the museums on Monument Ave. and colleges nearby. Last time we stayed in this historic area of Richmond, there were more restaurants within walking distance of the hotels. Not sure why many were closed, maybe high rents, but still lots of choices to dine at. The hotel is very clean, the help is so friendly and the rooms are very large, high ceilings, nice furniture and comfortable beds. I would definitely stay there again.
Positives: My daughter felt like a princess staying there. We both slept like logs.
Negatives: Didn't expect to pay for parking.

Water was cut off on last night so in morning could not shower or use bathroom. Staff was not empowered to do anything. They said Manager would call to discuss and after almost a week have not heard one word.
Positives: Convenient location in downtown.
Negatives: Water was cut off on last night so you could not shower or use bathroom. Parking is a pain.
