The Jefferson is a Richmond landmark and although some of their staff were underwhelming and unhelpful, partly because of the yearly "Ring Dance" university event being held their, it still remains something that all visits to Richmond should include. More

Our sincere apologies that you received less than stellar service from any of our staff members. While you kindly mentioned that your visit fell over a special event weekend, this is certainly not an excuse for our level of service to be compromised. We do hope that you will choose The Jefferson again for a future visit to the university... More

I needed to stay one night in the Richmond area for a business meeting I had early the next day. I checked in about 6pm, the valet and front desk staff very efficient and accommodating. I was upgraded to a suite because I had booked thru Am Ex FHR. Everything was very clean, the bathroom very nice, but I found... More

This hotel is one of the best hotels in the Richmond area. The hotel is located in a very convenient location to tour the Richmond, VA Area. Lemaire restaurant is by far a A+++ dining experience. Rooms are very comfortable and the staff is exceptional. More

We did, however, have a couple of problems. It was chilly for Richmond and the heating system in our room was unable to get the temperature above 65 degrees. The engineering staff couldn't... More

This past Christmas Eve we were with family members who live in Richmond. Following a church service they suggested we go to the Jefferson Hotel to see the Christmas tree, other decorations, and enjoy some cookies and hot chocolate. I thought, "Yeah, right."
