Stayed here for a prof development course @ Darden school of business. Hotel right on campus so not a normal hotel setup but rooms big & clean. Big TV, comfy bed, nice room. Not a traditional hotel setup but very nice ambience if u staying here for campus business. Pub downstairs is nice too.

This place is absolutely perfect and is an outstanding value. Gracious hosts, lovely rooms, sparkling clean, a great location, delicious snacks available all day in the gatehouse, and a superb breakfast in the morning. I even bought the wonderful bathrobe! We will be back!

We mostly enjoyed our stay at the Inn at Darden and would definitely stay here again, but I'm giving it only 4 stars because it wasn't perfect.

We stayed here two nights while visiting the UVA Law School. The cost was quite reasonable. The room was very clean, the bed comfortable and the employees very friendly and helpful. However we are senior travelers and found it to be a bit of a hike from our room to the parking lot. Also the one elevator was in the... More

I went on a business/pleasure trip over the weekend and found the Inn to exceed all my expectations. Room was comfortable, bed was great and rooms were clean. They even serve breakfast. For the price, it is a true bargain and beats nearby more expensive lodging. The rooms are much better appointed than the photos in the review. Parking can... More

I can't give a full evaluation of the Inn because we only stayed five minutes. The building is lovely, staff very nice and the room was pleasant looking. The problem?
