Top Wilmington Railroad Museum Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Coastline Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms. The view and the staff is so so nice!!"

Hotel Ballast Wilmington, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The hotel was fine and in a good location (along the river walk) in downtown Wilmington. The free airport shuttle service was handy and prompt (10-15 minutes from airport. Staff was friendly and competent. The most negative comment I have is the room amenities. Weirdly, there was not enough drawer space for clothing. And only 4 hangers in the closet. The room should be supplied with a folding luggage rack."
