Just stayed here for our son's graduation from Virginia Tech. I'm going to discount the fact that it's graduation weekend and the prices are jacked up with a three night minimum (up from two last year I'm told). They probably do that for football weekends as well - and not just at this hotel or in this university town. The... More

This Holiday Inn is located literally across the street from the VA Tech campus. Now that you know the reason for its continued existence, let's talk about "the rest of the story." This is branded as a "Holiday Inn," rather than an "Express," "Select" or any of the other brands within the family. At one time it was probably the... More

The hotel had been totally spruced up and the rooms are very attractive. The location--for a Hokie fan--is great, as it is very close to campus. It is also within walking distance to shops and various eateries... another plus. (Any knitters around? Mosaic, a wonderful yarn place, is only a few minutes walk from the hotel!) But, back to the...

This hotel is very nice! Friendly staff, great shuttle service and so close to the VT Campus you can walk to any of the sports events or check out the beautiful campus. The value and location are tops for the area, you will not be disappointed. It is especially fun during football games and there are often tailgate parties and... More

Having been to Blacksburg many many times, I can tell you this is the best option of both business and pleasure. They also recently renovated the rooms to a level ahead of its competition in town.

Excellent stay in a very clean hotel with extremely nice staff. Love the location so close to the campus. Quiet room with a huge television made it very easy to relax. Plan on being a frequent guest in the future.

We booked this hotel thru Hotwire, which had claimed we were entitled to a complimentary breakfast. Unfortunately this was not honored by the hotel staff. Our room had no toilet paper, which was promptly brought to our room upon request; I just do not feel the room should start off with empty rolls. Our room faced the road which was... More
