Venues & Event Spaces in Charlottesville, VA

“This is the best craft store I have EVER visited!! As an avid crafter it is a true dream to find a place that is helping to reduce, reuse, recycle the many odds and ends of supplies! Not only that but when you're knee deep into a new craft venture and need a very specific item, don't need packs of 10-20+ items, or are looking for inspiration The Scrappy Elephant is 100% the place to find what you need (and if you're like me, always room for some extras too ?). It's hard to describe how perfect a shop this is for all my making needs but most importantly it's the way The Scrappy Elephant has focused on the community that keeps me coming back time and time again. Their commitment to keeping prices affordable AND letting shoppers choose the local orgs that will get donations generated by your shopping, FANTASTIC.
Thank you The Scrappy Elephant for being a crafters/makers haven and spreading good vibe in our community too!! ??”

“We were just laying over on a train excursion and looking to kill some time. The Paramount was showing "Chariots of Fire" and we decided to go see the movie. The facility was great. It was restored to all its glory when it was built in the '20s.”

“Drink and food selections all went hand in hand. The atmosphere was very comfy and yet still elevated. The live music also made it a wonderful place to spend an afternoon ☺️”

“Reviewing the restaurant 1799. Wonderful service, wonderful food. Especially like the servers -knowledgeable and friendly. Okay especially like the food too. Great place to be with wonderful food in people.

Food & drinks: Love the food”

“It's a very nice interior, and lots of great, often nationally known bands come through, but ticket prices have gotten very high and the bar prices are ridiculous. And advance tickets are only available via TicketMaster with whom I personally won't do business, so in order to avoid that one must either buy tickets at the box office on the day of the show or in advance. It'd be cool if they used EventBrite or another alternative.”

“This was our destination place to have a picnic overlooking the vineyards. Then we went inside for wine tasting and it was an excellent experience. The ambience and the atmosphere were very nice and the servers were very delightful.”

“No entrance fee, great atmosphere, good music, grassy area for blankets/picnic, beer and drinks available within the pavilion, very diverse crowd, located at the end of Charlottesville Downtown Mall where plenty of food is available.”

“This hotel went well above my expectations. The room was big, full of amenities, quiet and clean. The staff were so genuinely kind. The lady running the breakfast was so so nice and truly cared about making sure everyone had what they needed.”

“Be sure to grab the Petit Verdot, probably my favorite red they make. If you’re looking for a quaint tasting room where you can get to know the staff and enjoy hearing about the wine then this place is for you. They also have some food options, not meals but snacks for tastings. We got the cheese and cracker option. You’ll love it here!”

“Stopped in for a quick coffee and breakfast on my way to a meeting. Was pleasantly surprised by the quality and pricing. Paid $4 for a latte and $6 for a fairly large breakfast sandwich. Honestly, it was delicious, the service was great, and it's quite lovely inside.”

“From signing our contract to the end of our rehearsal dinner and welcome party, The Space (we were working almost exclusively with Laura) was a dream to work with. I have an email chain of probably 50 emails back and forth with Laura as we figured our menus, layouts, décor, etc. She was so patient with us as we had so many questions during the planning process. They have a variety of menus you can built your dinner from (we chose a plated dinner), but they are able to really create anything you want even if it’s not on the menus. We requested a few different indian-style appetizers (paneer, samosa, etc.) which they absolutely delivered! All the food was amazing. Following the rehearsal dinner, we opened to a welcome party for all our wedding guests that were traveling into town for the weekend. We had desserts and an open bar available for our guests which they were able to seamlessly accommodate. The staff there was so attentive and continuously made sure we were happy throughout the event. They also have connections with someone who you can hire to decorate the awesome chalkboards they have behind the bar! They were the perfect venue for what we needed to kick off our wedding weekend!”

“My husband and I joined the Greencroft Club two years ago. We love the dining experience and are now converts to Pickle Ball. The courts are world class. We have made new friends and have enjoyed relaxing by the pool.”

“We’ve been on a road trip and have stayed at multiple Hyatt Places. This was by far and away the best one. Very clean, accessible and front desk staff were very helpful and friendly. Microwave in our room. Breakfast was the same as the other Hyatts but the presentation was better than the others we’ve been to. They even had pool noodles in the pool area for the kids which was a hit! Highly recommend if you’re passing through Charlottesville!

Rooms: Super clean.

Walkability: Can walk right across the street for food/drinks and some shopping. Not too far from Monticello.”

“Our organization hosted its annual holiday gathering at Level10 this past week and our staff/guests were head-over-heels in love with the space. The experience we had in planning and hosting the event was unparalleled -- Level10 management staff were accessible and accommodating through the process. Not to mention the VIEWS! My, my... I'd give it 6 stars if I could!”

“Beautiful venue. I catered a wedding & got a chance to speak to two of the ladies operating the venue. Mimi Esminger is such a beautiful soul along with Katie or Kathy i cant remember her name but she was sweet & funny”

“Easy to get to and park, really close to grounds and the corner and a short trip to the downtown mall.The Inn was super accommodating for our engagement and were able to get me exactly the room I wanted and put my flowers in the room in advance. Easy to work with and a great price too with the Virginia resident discount.The room was very comfortable, bed super soft, ceiling fan and AC control in the room were nice bonuses. The soaker tub in the king suite was also unreal.”

“Oakhurst Inn was a special place to stay on my birthday and it has overwhelmingly attentive front desk and valet service. I spent my birthday here and it was a last minute plan after finding out my dog has a terminal illness. The staff were so kind and helpful. My trip to Charlottesville will be remembered for many reasons. It will be a fond memory and keepsake of this trip with my dog during this time in her life. Thank you, Oakhurst Inn for providing this service and making things so seamless. If you travel with pets, Oakhurst Inn offers select rooms. Call in advance to make sure one is available. They don't have a refrigerator in the room so plan ahead if you have any food or items that are perishable. Enjoy your stay with your furry friend.”

“I am not sure why the rating isn't at least 4 stars across-the-board! When I review/rate places, I try and look at it as a whole and yes, some of the particular details as well. I account for imperfections (because no one is perfect) and lastly, the general feel of how an establishment makes me feel is very important! With all that being said, Home2 suites is amazing! Because of contractors, and issues with my apartment. I have been staying in hotels for over a month. I have switched a few times because of supply and demand. What I can say is, of the 4 places I have stayed Home2 Suites is by far the best! This is my experience from my past 2 lengthy stays: Home2suites has been consistently friendly, welcoming, definitely accommodating, and kind. They make me feel always wanted and cared for by each and every staff member I have had communication with. I have a king size suite, and it is very reasonably priced. My room is clean in good condition and has all the amenities one could ask for.! There is a full-size fridge with a separate freezer in my room! This is very important if one would want to freeze water bottles have frozen dinners, ice cream, etc. Many hotels have fridges with tiny freezers that are connected inside the fridge. So the freezer part never really stays frozen. Bathrooms have all the tissues towels, shampoo, soap, and conditioner, make up wipes, hair dryers, and everything else you can think ofTV is huge and easy to figure out attaching my fire stick ( for Netflix,Hulu, etc.) I love how this hotel has full-size washers and dryers!!! These are free to all the guests and they're down by the gym, just bring your own washing soap. (Or you can buy it there) Breakfast is free and every day omelettes are made, muffins, granola, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, oatmeal you name it...you got it !When I wanted a certain kind of coffee, they took the Keurig out and put a different machine in (maybe Nepresso?) for my coffee tastes!! How cool is that! Anyway, I could go on but this hotel is amazing whether you want a room or a suite they got you covered! You can literally walk to the downtown mall or IX park which are both great places for Saturday morning markets ! This is an extremely good location and beautiful property ... there is a really nice outdoor covered seating area with a fire pit right by the front entrance! And I think I saved the best for last ... the STAFF !!! I don't know who does your hiring, but they have done well. These employees are some of the best people I have met and I live in Charlottesville ! Well done Home2 Suites, I definitely will be back and I will send any out-of-town friends (who can't stay with me) straight over to you !”

“We were so happy that the Summer passes have returned again this year! As such, we frequent the alley most days/weeks. The customer service at this bowling alley is top-notch, especially Justine, who is incredibly friendly and attentive. The lanes are well-maintained, and the atmosphere was fun and inviting. The food and drink options were also great, with quick service and delicious choices. We will definitely be coming back soon!”

“Great place to stay! Close to VU and Monticello. Rooms and amenities are great. Gym has weights and Peloton. Marissa in the cafe is great! Coffee, breakfast danishes and lunch are excellent. Staff is very professional and welcoming.”

“Older kids very aggressive in dodge ball area. Not monitored well til our kids needed ice packs for their faces. Manager did give vouchers for future visits. Very nice”
