Engaged couples, BEWARE! Do not book room blocks here. We were automatically charged $1900 without receiving an invoice. We have called repeatedly, and no one will return our calls...
. We can only assume it's due to us not booking enough rooms in the block, but we cannot confirm that. We reserved a block of rooms that Hilton released a month before our wedding. Legally, they have a duty to mitigate (aka attempt to rent out the rooms), and they have provided no evidence of doing so. We also had multiple guests unable to reach the sales department (who is in charge of room blocks) to book rooms, which decreased our usage of the block. Overall, we have had a horrible experience, and Hilton has been no help.
We recently had a wedding at the John Marshall Hotel (John Marshall Ballrooms) on 5th Street in Downtown Richmond, VA. We decided to get a room block at the nearby Hilton Hotel. ...
This hotel was absolutely amazing. The thing that stood out the most was their excellent customer service. The valet parking people, the breakfast staff, the housekeeping, front desk, and management treated us all like royalty. It is rare this day and age to get this level of customer service and that really stood out to not only us, but everyone that stayed there. The hotel has a restaurant on the first level named, “La Grotta Ristorante”, which was amazing!! Next, this hotel was formerly a famous department store that was renovated. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, the lobby is amazing, and the hotel has a full amenity package and parking. The historic plaques on each level were pretty neat to read, too. If anyone is ever planning to stay in downtown Richmond, this hotel is the best and it is walking distance to lots of great restaurants.
