Schooner Inn

10/10 Excellent

"First time stay. Over"

Norfolk Waterside Marriott

10/10 Excellent

"Recommended. Caroline helped us with a room change. She was great!! The breakfast buffet was good too. Super easy walk to the cruise port. We parked in the Main Street parking garage on floor 3 and used the bridge to the hotel. Then parked there for the 8 day cruise. $104 Would definitely stay again."

Holiday Inn & Suites Virginia Beach North Beach by IHG

8/10 Good

"Loved everything about our stay. The room was so nice and spacious. The only downside was that the outdoor pool water was literally freezing (it was June) and the indoor pool was out of service. The kids still made the best of it though."
