Hilton Richmond Downtown
The parking situation was not ideal. You either had to pay $40 for valet parking or pay $12 to park across the street but wake up before 6 am to extend the meter.

Graduate by Hilton Richmond
Hotel is nice and clean/modern and the location is convenient. Valet, check-in staff, and breakfast staff were all very courteous. Rooms are spacious and I got an unsolicited upgrade to a larger room, which was nice, Room amenities could be nicer, especially the bathroom amenities.
