Best Western Plus Inn at Valley View

8/10 Good

"The bathroom was a bit worn and needs updated, paint and wallpaper. The corners needed cleaning attention. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We left a bag outside the morning we checked out. They have assured us they would ship it to us. We’re waiting for it to arrive. It was convenient to a breakfast with so many choices."

The Promissory Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"In passing through Roanoke overnight, we decided on this property based off the Expedia rating. It didn't disappoint! As members we already had a sizable discount added on top of accumulated stay money , so it was extremely reasonable in price for the night. Our king bed suite was huge, large bathroom with nice tiled shower surround. We feel the best part was the adjoining restaurant, Suerte, a Spanish Tapas restaurant. It was excellent. Waitress was very nice, all our food choices were great! So for our one night stay and the restaurant experience, we would highly recommend!!"

Spark by Hilton Roanoke Civic Center

10/10 Excellent

"We had arrived a couple of hours before check in and we had asked when would our room be available. They advised us and we were waiting in parking lot and once it was ready front desk came outside to let us know ready. All front desk agents were friendly and advised of places to eat. Clean rooms, loved the bed and pillows."
