My husband and I stayed at The Duval Hotel for two nights during a bus conference, and overall, we had a good experience.
The Good:
- The staff was friendly and welcoming, making check-in smooth and easy.
- Our suite was larger than expected, offering a quiet, comfortable space with a sofa, TV, and bar.
- The king-size bed was comfy, though it slanted a bit towards the center.
- Valet service was quick and efficient, but they have a $36 per night fee (plus tips)
The Not-So-Good:
- The bathroom had a slide door that didn’t seal properly, which affected privacy. The lack of sound and light privacy from the bathroom, which was right next to the sofa and bed, was a bit bothersome.
- The rooftop lounge, which was one of the reasons we chose the hotel, was a bit of a letdown. The menu was limited, and there was no table service. We had to get up to order food and drinks from the bar each time.
- Shula’s restaurant didn’t meet our expectations based on poor reviews from friends, so we opted for an amazing meal at Il Lusso, a fantastic Italian restaurant nearby.
All in all, The Duval Hotel is a solid option for a stay in Tallahassee, but there are a few areas that could be improved for a more complete experience. Would stay again.
