Top Wilmington Hotel Reviews

SpringHill Suites® by Marriott® Wilmington Wrightsville Beach

10/10 Excellent

"My only complaint was that I wish they had a bigger mini fridge. Other than that everything else was great."

Fairfield Inn & Suites Wilmington / Wrightsville Beach

8/10 Good

"The staff were helpful and professional. They were attentive to your needs. The breakfast could be better. The grits did not taste like grits. They tasted as if they were mixed with cream of wheat. The sausage did not taste like sausage. Additionally, the hotel should have lotion in the rooms. It has refillable containers with shampoo, conditioner and hand soap. It should add a container with lotion. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would return when we have an opportunity to do so."

Courtyard by Marriott Wilmington / Wrightsville Beach

8/10 Good

"I’d say it is decent stay for the adequate price if you just need a room for a weekend at the beach and you don’t want to pay $1500 and up. AC, shower, parking, shops nearby, close driving distance to the Wrightsville beach- all boxes are checked. We will stay here again."
