Stayed for a short convention. Room was clean and neat. Great view of the river and Norfork. Pool was empty during my stay

I absolutely love this hotel. I stayed here while attending a conference in Norfolk at Waterside. All the rooms were booked on that side, so I decided to go with the Renaissance. I was a little worried about the commute back and forth to Norfolk, but it turned out to be a perfect location. It took me no more than... More

This hotel met my expectations. The room was clean and well-appointed, plus it had a great view of the water and Norfolk. It was also next door to the ferry stop and that was convenient, as I planned to visit Norfolk each day during the stay there. I chose the hotel because I was going to a concert nearby with... More

Spent 4 days at the Renaissance Portsmouth Hotel & Waterfront Conference Center in Portsmouth , Va. In recent years the waterfront and old town Portsmouth have taken on a revitilization and it shows. Beautiful views of the Norfolk waterfront if you are on the Northside of the hotel. If you are into maritime history , the lightship "Portsmouth" which was... More

Its sort of an unerwhelming hotel but it was fine. Rather quiet area over a rainy weekend. Tried to catch the water shuttle across the river for dinner but we missed it; so we took a cab. Same thing on the return trip & since it was pouring rain, did not want to wait around but I thought it was... More

There was BLOOD on my sheet, and a pubic hair found on my pillow. I didn't notice the hair until after i laid down for a nap. I called the front desk around 7 pm and a... More

This hotel is really nice for the area that it is in. I was able to get a great deal online via Marriott.com that included breakfast buffett and Wired/wireless internet for only $99 per night. Check in was not to bad although we did run into one rude hotel staff, but everyone else made up for that one hiccup. We... More

I have stayed at this property on several occasions and I plan to continue to stay there when in the area. This really is a beautiful hotel that sits on the river across from Norfolk, VA. If you have a city side room it is a nice view during the day or evening. It is a bit of an odd... More

Very nice hotel. Very clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Had a wonderful view of the river. Could had sit all day and looked out the window. Very relaxing. Had trouble with the wireless internet, it was very slow. Cable TV went out one night and some channels are not clear. Great location. Walked to restaurants and to the ferry.
