“The Virginia Hotel feels like a true haven, with its elegant appointments and an almost palpable sense of warmth, amplified by attentive staff who clearly take pride in their service. Mornings here are a delight, with thoughtfully prepared breakfast options that feel more akin to fine dining than a standard inclusion. It's the kind of place you discover and then find yourself planning your return before you've even departed.”
