Very nice rooms with comfortable beds and sitting areas and spacious bathroom and nice kitchenette area all just steps away from the pedestrian mall. We stayed with our teenage son and it was great for all.
We loved our stay at The Jeff! The room was clean and inviting. The location was great with many fun and interesting shops and restaurants in walking distance.
Was in for a show at the Jefferson, the proximity can't be beaten. The check-in process was super easy, and being right on the mall made for a nice evening of walking around and seeing things before the show.
This property was pretty great. Great location and nicely decorated. Comfortable bed. Would prefer less air freshener/artificial scent and more toilet paper. Overall would recommend!!
The Jefferson Hotel was nicely appointed, quiet and comfortable. Conveniently located on Charlottesville’s downtown mall, we were able to sample several great restaurants as well as pick up some nice souvenirs at local shops. It was also centrally located so that we could visit wineries as well as the historic sites. Loved it!
We came for a show at the Ting Pavilion, which made this boutique hotel an excellent place to stay. We could park in the garage and then walk to any place we needed to go, and no need to battle the traffic after the concert. The decor was fun, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom was sleek with its large walk-in shower. We will definitely consider staying here on our next visit to Cville.
The location could not be more perfect for a lovely weekend in downtown Charlottesville. The roomThe bed was super comfy and the bathroom was clean. Our only complaint would have been the air quality. The room smelled musty, like mildew and the windows do not open.
Easy check in and super simple check out. The location was amazing, right in the middle of the market area. The walk from the parking garage was exactly 3 minutes and was simple to do even with loads of luggage. The description was exact, included tips, and realistic expectations, like the stairs leading to our unit. The unit was well equpped, modern amenities and super clean. we will definitely stay here again.
We absolutely loved it! The location was amazing with a beautiful window overlooking the downtown mall. We went to many restaurants and two shows just steps away. The room was beautiful and super clean. The decor and amenities were just right. Checkin and checkout was effortless. Quick responses from hosts, even after hours. Any future visits to Charlottesville will definitely include staying at the Jefferson!
From the musty smell upon entering the room to the stained carpet and generally tired/dirty looking furniture, the property just wasn't clean enough to warrant a repeat stay.
