DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Wilmington

10/10 Excellent

"All systems working as expected. Just the way I like it."

SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Brandywine Valley

10/10 Excellent

"We were in town for the HORROR FEST FILM FESTIVAL. Check-in was super easy and the staff was delightful. Our room was very clean, well prepped, and slept well. The only dislike was the loud neighbor, but I will not hold that against the place. The breakfast was great and filling, lots of options. Definitely recommend for anyone traveling though. Great shampoo provided. Good prices, and an actual modern tv that was nice to relax watching during the stay."

"This location is ideal for what we wanted to do! Short travel to everywhere, including Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, shopping and antiques. Great food was everywhere! The home has plenty of room to spread out, nice kitchen well accessorized if eating in. While we did not use the pool, it is private and lovely. The neighborhood was easy to find, and very quiet, with convenient off street parking. We initially had a couple of issues to address, and the owner was responsive, issues were taken care of."
