A true grande dame hotel. Architecturally important. Large rooms. Old world atmosphere. Housekeeping excellent. Staff attentive. Room service breakfast on time and superb. The exterior window caulking is falling off. The rooms could use a refresh. The hotel needs some TLC. All in all a delightful experience.

This is the prime example of a grand hotel, Richmond style. The service is what you would expect from a five star hotel: impeccable. We especially appreciated the concierge, who took care of us when we had forgotten certain toiletry items and when shirts had to be laundered quickly. Breakfast and dinner were marvelous, although one of the hostesses could have been a bit more accommodating and friendly. Rooms and bathrooms were large and well appointed. Anyone contemplating a visit to Richmond should stay at The Jefferson. You will be glad you did.

Not worth the money
I was disappointed in my room. For the amount of money spent for one night, I was expecting to be wowed. It was just like any other hotel room to me. Not to mention, i was woken up by someone's yappy little dog barking in the room next to mine at 0630am. If i wanted to be woken up by barking dogs, I would've stayed home. Also, I thought it was ridiculous that I had to pay $20 to park my car in the parking lot across the street. For the price of the room, parking should have been included. And I had to park my own car, it wasn'teven valet parking. I will not stay at the Jefferson again.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize that you were disturbed by another guest's dog so early in the morning. We are a dog friendly hotel but do ask guests so stay with their pets to make sure there is no noise disturbance. We have refunded you the cost for self-parking.
