Top Downtown Roanoke Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Roanoke Airport

8/10 Good

"The hotel room was excellent. The staff were very helpful and professional. The hotel was very clean and quite nice. My only complaint was breakfast. It was supposed to be ready at 6:00 but it wasn't until 6:20 that the prepared eggs and sausage patties were served. The sausage was like rubber and not quite warm. I'm guessing they were leftovers from the day before. The eggs weren't even room temperature. They were actually cold. Everything else was fine."

Hotel Roanoke & Conference Ctr, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The property was well maintained and most enjoyable; the staff members were very pleasant and helpful; however, for the occasion, the dining room staff was under-manned, wait times were too long, the meal had cooled and the dessert was over cooked."

Spark by Hilton Roanoke Civic Center

10/10 Excellent

"We had arrived a couple of hours before check in and we had asked when would our room be available. They advised us and we were waiting in parking lot and once it was ready front desk came outside to let us know ready. All front desk agents were friendly and advised of places to eat. Clean rooms, loved the bed and pillows."

The West End Flats

10/10 Excellent

"When we got there before 3pm the place was empty and we got kind of skeptical but then we followed the instructions at the door got easy inside and at night the place got busy with the brewery, it was awesome and definitely will do it again. Clean place, good customer service by text, a/c and kitchen all good. The couch had better days but it was ok for our dog 😂. Lol."
