Top Wilmington Historic District Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn University

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and the staff was great. Great hotel for family"

Embassy Suites by Hilton Wilmington Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Last time I stayed there I received 2 complimentary drinks at happy hour. Did not get those this time. The hot water was turned off in the bathroom sink. I had to turn it back on. The sink stopper was broken and had to pull it out and lay it on the counter to use sink. Even with those items, I enjoyed my stay."

Golden Sands Carolina Beach Oceanfront, Tapestry by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We found the staff very friendly and helpful; they responded quickly to requests. Room was clean but in need of upgrades, especially the bathroom which was small for 2 people and the air conditioner unit which was very loud. Pool area was large and well maintained. While a nice property, it did not meet the standards of a Hilton."
