Linden Row Inn

My wife and I stayed here one night during April 2022. The building is historic and in a pretty quiet part of town. Our room was pleasant and clean but could have used some updating as things were a bit worn, although the bathroom seemed to have been updated more recently. Parking is down the street a block or so in a parking garage, so factor that into your plans if staying here. From the Inn it's possible to walk to the American Civil War Museum at Historic Tredegar, if you are reasonably fit. The Parterre Restaurant inside the hotel was very good and the beer was excellent. Other restaurants that we walked to were Kat's (breakfast), Perly's Diner (breakfast), and Penny Lane Pub (dinner). All were really nice. Other than needing a bit of a "refresh", this was a very nice experience. less

Lovely historic hotel! Well kept ! Close to many things downtown. We used the free street parking. The wine and pimento cheese at the hotel restaurant were great. Lovely staff at the front desk at both the morning and evening. Very clean hotel. We were two moms and our teen age daughters in town for a concert. There is some Edgar Allen Poe history tied to the hotel. He played on the grounds as a child. I added a photo of the parlor near the check in desk. less

I would like to commend the management staff at Linder Row in addition to the cool historic building and rooms. Richmond has a very laid back diverse vibe and this Inn delivers. The buildings, attached row houses, are historic and lovely with a charm of yesteryear, but with modern bathrooms and fittings. There is a lovely brick courtyard to further your relaxation experience. It is the staff that I offer the gold star to. We came to the hotel and stayed a few hours. Shortly after our arrival, we received a call that a family crisis was at hand and we needed to head home. We told the woman at the front desk that we needed to go. We needed to make haste and did not have time for much else. Within a few days, I received a refund, not fir the entire booking, but for a large portion of it. We were there for a few hours. I absolutely did not expect this, but was pleasantly surprised. Kudos to a management staff such as this - at a time when businesses are hurting due to COVID. Our room was full of character (some may feel that is a nice was of saying something is old) and historic, but with all the modern comforts. Spa style bath to boot. Really a very lovely Inn on many counts. We will be back - as this Inn excels at customer service - which seem to be a dying art overall. Thank you. less

We stayed three nights on the recommendation of a local friend. Overall we enjoyed our stay but there were definitely some pros & cons. Pros: The courtyard is lovely. We were upgraded to an ENORMOUS room. The bed was comfortable. The room was clean. It was a short walk to some good restaurants. Cons: There was a wedding in the courtyard one of our nights. Between the DJ and the gaggle of teenage girls staying at the hotel screaming to every song it was VERY loud after a long day. Luckily it ended by 9:30 or 10. Parking was one block away. Easy enough for us but it could be an issue for guests with mobility issues. Some front desk staff was friendly and welcoming, others not so much. The restaurant opened late (for us) but was closed mid-day when we hoped for a quick snack. There was a keurig coffee maker in the room but was tucked away in the armoire, making it difficult to use. As I said, we enjoyed our stay but would probably consider other options if ever in town again. less

Probabily 3.5 would be more appropriate but unfortunately it is not possible to use half points. On the positive side we have a good position and a friendly staff. The hotel is charming and the common areas are very nice. On the other side our room needed a renovation despite not having any particular negative point and being quite spacious. Overall we enjoyed our stay and with no doubt our experience was good, but not enough to say it was very good. less
