The Commonwealth is a lovely landmark hotel in a convenient part of the city for sightseeing, just one block from the Virginia State Capitol and easy walking distance to several historical sites. Very comfortable rooms, love the colorful art and decor! Each room comes with free high-speed wi-fi and 50” flatscreen TVs; the suite also includes a beautiful armoire for luggage and clothing. The beds are soft but firm enough for those who don’t like to sink down into the mattress, and while I usually have problems with most hotel pillows, I have NO complaints here; you can choose from several pillows of varying firmness—an option every hotel should offer, in my opinion! I also love, love, love their luxurious bathrooms with walk-in showers! The suite living rooms and kitchenettes are spacious, and I easily could have fallen asleep on a very comfortable sofa. An additional plus: the rooms all have multiple outlets and USB ports for electronics (*note*: ports are USB-A; bring a charger block or adapter if any of your devices use USB-C). At Rueger’s, their in-house restaurant, I had a BLT sandwich one evening and a cinnamon waffle with berries the next morning; both were delicious. Excellent, friendly service from all of the staff as well. I’ll definitely book here again the next time I come to Richmond.

The room was not like the room on the website. I don’t know if it was bc of me booking through Expedia or not. I was placed right next to the elevator. My view was the room across from me, so I had to keep my curtain closed. The a/c units were right next to my window so I heard that all night and also something that sounded like a furnace. The room is already painted black so it was super dark. I would give this property a 7. It was clean but it still needs work.

Downtown hotel
Downtown hotel on a holiday = quiet neighborhood with not much open. The suite was very nice (good size for the $$), but the restaurant was a disappointment. It was unexpectedly closed one morning due to someone calling out sick. We may try a different neighborhood next time.

We live in Richmond and spent the night in the hotel as a special treat to ourselves. I was delighted with the size of the Maymont room. We easily were able to walk to the Hard Shell where we had dinner. Check in and check out was incredibly easy and fast.

Liked: Cleanliness
The front desk people were nice and offered to hold my luggage while I attended a conference but then when I got up to my room, the drawers in the bedroom kept falling open and would not stay closed in the Lovely room, then when I went to take a shower I couldn’t figure out how to use the handle and it was loose like it was falling off. But the room did look like it had just been remodeled which was good. Then they told me I got free breakfast and when I came downstairs I was charged for the food I ordered. Regarding the shower issue, I called the front desk and the front desk lady was YELLING to her associate to have a man come upstairs to check it and she seemed like she didn’t know what she was talking about. Other than that it was fine

Roomy, comfort across from the Capitol
This nicely renovated classic hotel sits across from the Capitol and offers roomy suites at a reasonable price. The living room furnishings are comfortable and not econolodge cheap, too firm, upholstered boxes. Valet parking staff are excellent though the great location means there is loads to walk to directly. The front desk staff is welcoming and happy to offer local insight. A nice stay.

This was a prefect property. The room was a suite, so much space. This was a place I would live if it was an apartment. So quiet, the elevators were great, love that they only hold a few people instead of a mass of people. Loved my stay would stay again for sure!!!
