Hotel Roanoke & Conference Center, Curio Collection by Hilton

Stayed at this hotel for just one night. Our room was clean and had all the facilities that we needed. Fortunately, when we called in, at around 13:30, they were able to allocate us a room, so we could unload all of our luggage, and go off and enjoy the rest of the afternoon, at the attraction that we'd intended to visit, without the security issues of leaving property in our car. Our room on the 6th floor was a little on the small side, but had a wonderful view. Shower was excellent, and the bed comfortable, so we got a good night's sleep. We didn't eat at the hotel, so can't pass comment on the hotels facilities.

Convenient location, close to downtown Roanoke via pedestrian bridge over the railroad, yet easy access from I-81. We always use Hotel Roanoke for our mid-trip stop overs when traveling north/south along I-81. The front desk agent was very kind by offering to relocate our room from the king we had booked (which was only available on a floor where guests from two large wedding parties were staying) to a two double bed room on a different and quieter floor — we took advantage of that change and really appreciate the thoughtfulness of the front desk. Dinner in the hotel dining room was superb with fine food and also an excellent three piece band and dance floor.

Dinner in Pine Room exceptional and very accommodating. Waitress, Penny, was great. Оn the other hand, breakfast was tired, dry and not tended to at 10 AM (supposed to be available until 10:30). Hostess preoccupied with putting in tickets when we arrived and took way too long to get seated. 20% tip automatic add on a buffet unacceptable.

The room was very nice, spacious. The bathroom was a bit small but expected in an older property. The hotel itself is beautiful. Unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy any of the restaurants, so no comment there. They did however look beautiful, white tablecloth, set very well.

I was very impressed with the architecture and design of the hotel itself, especially the interior and artwork in the lobby/reception area. My room was appropriately styled to match the historical but luxurious nature of the hotel. Additionally, the hotel has a skybridge connecting to downtown Roanoke over the train tracks; very convenient.
