As a leader of a corporate presentation team I travel intensively with my colleagues. As a HHonors Diamond member, I try to stay loyal to Hilton properties. The overall condition of the Wilmington NC Hilton makes it hard to convince my team of Hilton quality standards. The condition of this property shows little or no investment in upgrades for many...

My reservation was made with the hotel because I was requesting a special rate; it was efficiently and correctly handled. Upon check in the rooms were correct and the front desk staff was efficient and pleasant. I'm still a little taken aback that some properties have begun requesting picture IDs, but no big deal. The room was well furnished and... More

I found the room to be nice & clean. The front desk attendants were very nice & helpfull. The location is perfect. Just walk to restaurants, shops & riverfront! In comparing prices with many of the other hotels in area - the Hilton is priced about right. In fact, why pay the same to stay in a 3 star hotel... More

This was not up to the standards I would expect from a typical Hilton hotel. The positives: the staff was very helpful and friendly and a pleasure to deal with; the hotel was easy to get to; they have a shuttle to the airport; shuttle will also take you to other destinations upon request; very clean. The negatives: very small... More

Nice hotel, clean and quiet. Great location to the market district. Be sure to get a room with a water view. There is a Ruth Chris steakhouse on site, as well as a Starbucks. Staff is very friendly. Only downside is that they charge $9 a day for parking. More

This was our third visit to this property. What a disappointment this trip. Our "River View Deluxe King Room" had a river view by looking past the service buildings and parking lot. This was the only time in my memory that our hotel room had a night table and reading light on only ONE side of the king bed. We... More

My first-time experience with Hilton Wilmington Riverside earns a very positive review. Check in (with Johnathan) was pleasant and efficient. Daniel of the bell-staff did an superb job in helping me to my room, getting my car parked, and making me feel like a valued guest. An early evening dinner in the all-but-empty Innovations (restaurant) was wonderfully handled by Christine,... More

If you are coming to Wilmington NC and want to stay downtown in the midst of it all, then this upscale yet unpretentious hotel is definitely for you. It has everything you need, restaurant and bar inside, and in the summer, weekend bands poolside to enjoy. Everything is within walking distance, bars, shops, cafes, restaurants. The breakfast buffet is OUTSTANDING,... More
