Virginia State University is a public, historically black college located in Petersburg, Virginia. The university is the first fully supported, four year institution for African Americans in the United States and is one of two land-grant colleges in the State of Virginia.

The university was founded on March 6, 1882 as the Virginia Normal and College Institute after the state legislature passed a bill sponsored by Delegate Alfred W. Harris, a black attorney, which chartered the university. The state established the university to serve the needs of a population that was at the time excluded from other public institutions in Virginia. Virginia Normal and College Institute opened as a teacher training college for both male and female black students but it also included a modest liberal arts curriculum. @ Virginia State University

9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,340 reviews)

Loved this hotel! I would definitely stay here again. The only complaint I have, is the lighting in the room. The light over the headboard wasn’t too bright. Overall, I enjoyed my stay. The hotel was nice and spotless, the staff were very friendly. Not to mention, it is close to Union Station.
