Top Wilmington Riverwalk Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton Downtown Wilmington - Legal District

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is being renovated and while this did not really impact our stay, the limited use prevented late checkouts. Nonetheless the aesthetics of the lobby/ chill areas, fresh cookies and excellent sleep quality you're used to getting with Doubletree is still present. I'd come back for sure!!!"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Wilmington Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was amazing and river view room was lovely. It is absolutely time for them to reupholster all of the common area furniture and some of the room furniture. It was dingy and worn; and the quality of the room cleaning needs improving. There were crumbs inside the pull-out sofa, so we didn't use it. And there was no comforter for the pull out sofa. Coffee was not good. Great location. Great staff. Great view from room."
