Service was lovely — the hotel and gardens were gorgeous and so enjoyable! The food was delicious — the bartenders needed a bit more training though as they struggled to keep up with guests / attend to people arriving quickly (although they were so sweet!).

We had an awesome stay here! The location was perfect and it was a super easy to walk to the stadium. The rooms were super clean, and the hotel had everything we needed. The sports bar downstairs was such a nice bonus and had great food. The Hatch Smash burger was so good! Definitely recommend staying here if you’re in town.

The Kimpton Forum in Charlottesville is a terrific hotel with everything you’d expect from a new, high-quality property. The facilities are spotless and modern, with excellent amenities and beautifully maintained landscaping that makes the whole place feel inviting. Its location right on UVA’s campus is hard to beat, and the meeting spaces are spacious and well-designed — perfect for events or conferences. A great choice whether you’re visiting for business or leisure.

10/10 Exceptional

Staff is very courteous and helpful. Clean rooms and nice sheets. Stayed for several nights. Only one criticism, I stayed on the first floor, people smoke right outside the doors on the benches and when the door is opened during and after their smoking, the smoke gets sucked into the hotel and smells the hallways up with toxic smoke fumes instead of healthy nice smelling air. It’s a beautiful property with wooded trails in the back. Pet-friendly! Front-desk staff, manager, and valet staff are all polite and respectful and genuinely friendly. I recommend this hotel and I stay only at Kimptons whenever I travel.
