What people say
The hotel is older, so I was concerned. But it is well kept and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The price was very reasonable. And the two room suite set up was perfect for our GS troop - the leaders got their own room. The kitchen saved the cost of eating breakfast out every day. The pool was small, but the roof top setting made up for it. The view was fantastic and the location for shopping and restaurants was great. We will go back. all reviews »
Loved the separate bedroom and the Jacuzzi tub - the kids liked it more! Very friendly and accommodating staff. Arrived earlier and was able to check in early with no problem. Decided to stay an extra day and there was no problem. Engineering was so helpful when the washer broke during our laundry.
This place was wonderful! Located right on the ocean, and nestled in the
middle of absolutely anything you could want to do. The staff was
friendly and very helpful. The pool overlooks the ocean. My kids had so
much fun because the money we saved staying here instead of a more
expensive hotel!.
Rooms were spacious and view was spectacular. maid service was prompt and clean. Price was perfect as was the location. Terrace was a lovely spot for morning coffee or late evening relaxing. air conditioning was working well and the adjoining rooms were quiet and privacy was good.
The room had a fridge, micro wave and kitchen sink along with a couple place settings. There was also a separate living room from the bedroom. The balcony over the beach was nice and the people were so friendly and helpful. The jacuzzi tub was a nice bonus. Parking was easy.
We have been coming to Va Beach for 16 yrs . This is the first time we rented a room at the Dolphin Inn . Was absolutely pleased with everything , room was clean and very comfortable . Couldn't of asked for a better view of beach and ocean ! Will definitely stay here again !!.
This is our 2nd stay at the Dolphin Inn and it was just as good as the first time. Beds were comfortable including sofa bed. Room was clean. Restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Enjoyed watching dolphins from balcony.
The staff was helpful & very knowledgable of the surroundings. Great location right on the beach boardwalk. Great value balcony, jacuzzi tub, indoor pool, suite, comforts of home.. what more could I ask for?.
Convenience of walking everywhere (beach, shops, restaurants).
Beachstreet usa with nightly free shows for family entertainment. Good
variety of restaurants. Roof top in-door pool for inclement weather.
I liked the oceanfront location. the room was really nice loved the way the room was set up. was nice to have parking right at your hotel. really likes the rooftop pool, was little small but nice.
We love it. It was the cleanest hotel we have stay in. The staff was great. Everyone was friendly and talk to us every time they saw us. We enjoy our stay and will stay there again .
Two room suites. Very clean. Good location for restaurants. Great view of ocean and trapeze academy performances. Free parking. Good value for a simple motor hotel type.
I like the space of the room. And the view of the ocean. The boardwalk
was a short distance away. And shopping is just a step away. I would
stay here again.
It's central location on the boardwalk and close proximity to the pier. Loved watching the dolphins play in the surf near the pier in the mornings.
It was the perfect location for the fireworks, beach and amphitheter!!!
Absolutely loved it. The room was a pretty nice size kitchenette. :-).
Very clean...liked the set up of room. Bedroom in back so not much noise. Like the living room/kitchen set up. We would stay again.
Close to shopping, restaurants, attractions. Room was large enough to accommodate our family of 6. Being right on beach was great.
Love that all rooms are ocean views. Also like the idea that we
didn't have to go through the bedroom to get to the bathroom.
Loved the room and the location- right next to beach. Loved the view. Liked the indoor pool. Staff was friendly.
-the separation of the bedrooms from living room.
-the balcony looking at the ocean.
-being near the ampitheater.
Very helpful and courteous staff. Lots of room. Great location!!! Loved the jacuzzi tub and large bathroom.
I like the bedroom separate from the livingroom, location, and lower
price for oceanfront.
Check in was quick and easy. Staff was very friendly and the location was excellent.

Location and price.
They were great.

Great rates.
Location.
The first floor suites have patios, but a downside is that the room access is in the garage. But anything 2nd floor and up is great.
Some small items could be replaced...metal items in bathroom due to rust, shower could be bleached and regrouted (but it was very clean). Maybe fitted sheets because we kept having to pull the bottom sheet down :).
The furniture and upkeep aren't as nice as hotels that are more
expensive but that didn't hurt anything. Honestly, it was all
comfortable....it just isn't as "pretty" as others.
Outside was unattractive and rundown. Rugs and couches were stained an in need of better cleaning or replacement.
Elevator wait was always long and the doors closed too fast. Suggestion
is to update or service.
One elevator, but it was fast. Needed safety grab bars in the very large and tall-sided Jacuzzi tub. OK for able body people but not for older folks.
The neighbors next to our room were up all night slamming the door. The
doors are next to each other so this is hard to avoid. But, be warned
the doors need to be replaced for a quiet closure.
Parking is very limited and tight. They were working on second level parking which will help.
Parking really sucked! Very tight and extremely limited spaces. Need to
really reconstruct spaces and build a higher garage with more spaces and
capacities to fit large SUVs. I was really worried about the potential
of someone damaging my vehicle and vice versa.
Indoor pool was not like picture..no foliage, dingy. No toaster oven or cook top to cook meals.
I guess this is everyones complaint, parking. Guess it was planned out
when most people were driving smaller cars.
The parkimg, which was cramped and I was lucky to get a spot.
-hallways need more light.
-carpets and sofa need cleaned.
AC vent blowing hot air onto balcony. Older furniture. Bit of mildew on tiles around bath tub.
Parking is terrible, lot was too small and tight. The mattresses and
pillows were horrible! Very uncomfortable.
Parking. Looked for a spot on upper deck and when there wasn't any had to back almost all the way to the ramp.
Only complaint is the freezer did not work.
The room just didnt seem very clean. (Awful looking large stain on carpet).
The pool was small. Sofa bed sunk in the middle.
Construction was loud Friday morning starting at 8 AM. But I understand that will be finished eventually.
Parking is tight and pool is small
If a lot of people are there the pool gets crowded.
being on the 8th floor.
We had to change rooms due to faulty valve on the Jacuzzi which
caused water to shot out all over the bathroom and the area outside
of the bathroom.
the parking was tight.
The refrigerator was noisy.
The staff cleans daily, BUT the bathroom NEEDS DEEP CLEANING. Mold in grout, etc.
The homeless sleeping in the daytime on the boardwalk in front of the hotel isn't good. I am not surprised there are homeless, but sleeping on the benches in daylight is not acceptable.
Police do NOT enforce the "No biking on the boardwalk - No walking on the bike path" rule. Dangerous.
The police are present, but just seem to be passing through.
elevators were very slow, park space would was limited, would have liked a cook stove in room.
Crowded elevator! Why would you have only one?.
Pool too small.
there was no stove. had to pay for parking a block away.
nothing.
Cold morning shower, parking lot is very small. While its renovating, the hall way was quite dirty.
TV 's need to be updated.
Band playing next door until 10:45, too loud for the kids.
No Coffee bar or breakfast/lunch restaurant.
Elevator broke 2 times during 5 day stay.
coffee pot to small, bath room window ,sofa dirty.
Only one elevator shared by maids/maintenance. We couldn't set on the benches on the boardwalk two different nights after getting ice cream because of the homeless people having them occupied constantly. Also homeless hanging around the area between the stage and hotel day and night panning for money!! Your staff knows its going on and so does the police. Don't understand why this is looked over. I guess we'll have to stay on the north end of the beach from now on.
