The building is a little old, but it's charming. Location is amazing. Found a lot of great restaurants in the area that are within walking distance. However, me and my best friend had to cut our stay short. Came back after a night out and our room had been entered while we were gone. The shift manager was kind and allowed us a refund for the night.

Nice property, made to look historic but quite modern. Walkable to restaurants and capital building. Seemed to be only one person as valet/bellman. Plan ahead to get your car-took 40 minutes.

Perfect location, sweet front front desk staff
Perfect location for out get-away. Across the street from The Tobacco Company Restaurant which was perfect for our group. The hotel is a little tired BUT the front desk staff was so sweet and we had a very enjoyable stay.

The staff who greeted us and our dogs were amazingly friendly. The rooms were super quiet and dark shades to help sleep in morning. Pillows great. Shower hot but could use more pressure. Bed slightly firm. The area had great restaurants and bars in walking distance. Right off 95 so easy to get back on out way in morning. Coffee in lobby was excellent and hot. We will be back. Eric the bell stand attendant was extremely helpful.

Loved the decor. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Didn’t get a chance to eat at their restaurant, which I regret. There were 3 cars of people out by their cars on Saturday night/early Sunday morning that were loud and keeping me awake but since there are no phones in the room and I had lost my cell phone that day, I had no way to contact the desk.

This hotel has been under renovation for about 3 years. The black curtains make it look awful. Front desk was unoccupied for a while when we wanted to check out and check our bill. Kitchen staff was not helpful when we needed ice. Room staff was friendly and nice.

Nice hotel, but room smelled horrible
Hotel was charming and clean. The room was spacious and nicely decorated.. Staff was friendly with good service. Our only complaint was that our room reeked of cigarette smoke. It was awful. We asked for a different room, but they were supposedly fully booked.it really ruined the stay. Room 414.

Won’t use this hotel again.
This hotel is pretty dated. The air conditioning wasn’t working in either room we tried. Even the lobby was extremely warm. No microwave or refrigerator. Coffee bar in lobby was stale and not warm. Staff were very helpful and apologetic, and did their best, but it was the worst hotel experience we ever had.

The Berkeley possesses "old world" charm. It's location provides ease of access to many of Richmond's most desirable tourist sites downtown. Some work needs to be done as regards regular maintenance of high-use lobby areas. My wife and I agree that the Berkeley would always be at the top of our list of Richmond weekend stays.
