Top Wilmington Historic District Hotel Reviews

The Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"I thought the breakfast was excellent every day we were there. Housecleaning did not understand our needs the language barrier was definitely the issue."

Embassy Suites by Hilton Wilmington Riverfront

8/10 Good

"Tables were not bussed during the breakfast buffet times. It was difficult to find a clean table at times during breakfast hours. Also, I was unaware that there was a $30+ per night parking fee. I don't remember it being stated in the property description."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Wilmington West - Medical Park by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was exceptionally clean ,the staff was helpful and welcoming and nice. The breakfast was great. The oatmeal was real, not just the open up package of Quaker and put it in a bowl with hot water. Parking was free. I couldn’t find anything wrong with the place, I was very happy. It was rated three stars,I think when I made the reservation so I wasn’t expecting much ,believe me,I’m a snob. This was way beyond what I was expecting .Above all comfortable sheets, not the plastic ones that you get at the usual three star star hotels, nothing was wrong with this place. I was so pleasantly surprised. If I had to give you one negative maybe a little isolated. It’s in the middle of a Medical Center, the Medical Center closes at five so not much around that’s operating but that’s it."
