We booked the executive floor since it offered all day access to the lounge. The lounge offers all day coffee and beverages. They also host a happy hour where you can purchase drinks. Snacks and breakfast are also provided. The lounge has nice floor to ceiling windows with views of the harbor. Our room was very nice with a couple of comfy chairs. Our floor to ceiling windows also gave us a harbor view. The hotel has a couple of bars and restaurants. We didn't get a chance to eat at the restaurants but we did imbibe at a couple of bars. Service at these bars were great. The staff was attentive. It's a super nice hotel with some highly rated residents and bars. We would definitely stay here again.

Do NOT stay at the Glass Light Hotel. As experienced travelers, we have never been treated with…read moresuch disrespect. After a 9-hour train ride, we arrived for an almost $2,000 stay (fully paid and confirmed), only to be met with cold indifference and zero effort to accommodate us. We were left sitting and waiting with no consideration, treated worse than at a roadside motel. It was abundantly clear that the staff are ill-equipped to handle or respect multicultural and multilingual professionals. The complete lack of empathy, professional care, and discriminatory tone forced me to cancel my reservation on the spot. Save your money and stay somewhere that actually values basic human respect and hospitality- all English Speaking Caucasians welcome

The location is truly incredible, right in downtown Norfolk with easy access to the waterfront and so much within walking distance. That said, I was a bit disappointed with the vibe on my last visit this past weekend. I was expecting more of a true refresh or "facelift," but it still feels like the property needs additional updates to fully match its potential and prime location. During my stay, there were also noticeable maintenance issues, including an escalator that wasn't working, peeling wallpaper, chipped paint, doors not locking, sheets with makeup stains, and areas that felt generally dated. As for parking I suggest using the paid lots, though they do offer valet. Overall, it's still a solid hotel in an unbeatable location, staff was friendly, check in was a breeze. I would stay again for the convenience and nostalgia alone, but I'd really love to see a more thoughtful, comprehensive remodel to truly bring it up to its full potential.

Recently stayed at the Residence Inn by Marriott Norfolk Downtown. The spacious suite offered a…read moretwo-bedroom, two-bath layout, a full-size refrigerator, stovetop, and separate living area at a good price (compared to comparable hotels in the area) that was especially convenient for our 5-day, 4-night stay. The room was clean, nicely appointed, offered great storage, and included a decent (although limited) complimentary breakfast (a nice perk). Self-parking was conveniently located directly across the street and was reasonably priced at a fixed daily rate with unlimited in-and-out privileges. Staff members were friendly, professional, and accommodating. Overall, our stay was good. The only area for improvement would be requiring key card access for elevators to hotel room floors as an extra measure to enhance guest safety. I would recommend it to visitors to the Norfolk area.

I recently stayed at the Residence Inn Norfolk Downtown and unfortunately my experience did not…read morematch the expectations I have for a Marriott property -- especially for the price I paid. At around $300 per night, I expected a much higher level of quality and comfort. When we first entered the room, there was a very strong and unpleasant odor. Maintenance had to come and spray Lysol and ZEP to try to eliminate the smell. We ended up opening the windows and the door to air the room out, which eventually helped, but that is not something guests should have to do upon arrival. There were also several maintenance and cleanliness issues in the room. The closet door would not slide properly, the carpet had visible stains, and the bed sheets had a noticeable stain and were wrinkled. The comforters also appeared worn and not very clean, and the sofa looked old and stained as well. While the kitchen area appeared to be cleaned, the rest of the room definitely needed more attention. Another inconvenience was that only one elevator was working. A gentleman who stays there often mentioned that the second elevator had reportedly been out of service for about two months. The breakfast was mediocre at best -- nothing particularly impressive. On a positive note, the staff was friendly and the lobby and hallways were nice and clean, which made the condition of the rooms even more disappointing. Overall, I expected much more from a Marriott property at this price point. The hotel has potential, but the guest rooms need significantly more attention to cleanliness, maintenance, and upkeep.

During my stay, their bistro and bar was closed the entire time. Not sure why, they had just mentioned it was closed. They have a small convenience store in the lobby that was insanely picked through and didn't look like it had been updated in weeks. The room was okay. It was a decent size, rather clean, and overall it was super quiet during my stay. The tub appeared to be dirty or stained which was a little off putting. The TV itself was suuuper small for the scale of the room and dresser it was on. On the plus side, the hotel is pretty conveniently located around everything in town and seemed like a rather safe place to stay. Not sure if I'd opt to stay here again, but it's not the worst place in the world.

I like that it's close to the airport so I can feel less of a rush getting to my commute. I usually stay downtown at the Sheraton waterfront but decided to try this place out.

You might think that they are noisy with planes constantly flying overhead, but that is not the case. I usually look for them because they are usually reasonably priced with good amenities. Hampton Inn always has the features we like and this one in Norfolk is no exception. Upon check-in, we were given a room at the end of the hall on the 2nd floor. It turns out the hotel wasn't too full and we were upgraded to a large junior suite! Our very comfortable suite was easily 600-700 sq ft vs a regular 250-300 sq ft room and was long enough to have two windows facing the street. There is a wet bar area by the entrance with sink, refrigerator, coffee machine & microwave. Behind that was a large closet and a separate bathroom sink area outside of the shower/bathtub/toilet room. A king-size bed, 52" HDTV, desk and pull-out sleeper couch filled up the rest of the room. There are plenty of outlets & USB ports conveniently located on the desk and nightstands to charge all your phones, earpods, watches, ipads and laptops. The TV was even mounted on a swing-out mount so that you can see it properly from either the couch or in bed. The WiFi was adequate but you had to sometimes reenter your info to login. Breakfast served from 6am-10am everyday was adequate, though other Hamptons have better spreads. The one chafing tray with 3 compartments usually had scrambled eggs or omelet, sausage or bacon and home fried potatoes or biscuits and gravy. Get some toast or a bagel with fresh fruit, juice and you're all set for the day. The all-day coffee carafes are located in the lobby by the elevators though, not in the breakfast area. You can also enjoy a hot, fresh made Belgian Waffle from the DIY waffle irons, with a full size and a 4 mini iron. If you're on the run, the staff sets out quick grab-n-go breakfast sacks by the front door with bagel & spreads, fruit & yogurt. We didn't get to use the indoor pool, but we did use the gym once, even though it was small with only 3 machines. The gym opens at 6am though. For a long weekend stay, this was really nice and I would stay here again in the future.
