The Spotlight on Candlewood Suites Richmond - South By IHG

Easygoing Comfort Just Minutes from Richmond’s Music Scene

Modern and welcoming, Candlewood Suites Richmond - South by IHG is a comfortable, budget-friendly base located just off I-95. With spacious, apartment-style rooms and free WiFi, this all-suite hotel offers everything you need for a relaxed stay near downtown Richmond. Whether you're in town for a big show or a weekend getaway, this spot puts you close to the action while giving you space to unwind.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just 15–20 minutes from major Richmond venues like the Greater Richmond Convention Center and the National. After the show, come back to a quieter part of town that's perfect for recharging. The 24-hour front desk and late 12 PM check-out mean you don’t have to rush in or out. Bonus: free parking and easy highway access make it ideal if you're driving in from out of town.

The hotel also has snack and drink vending machines on site. Nearby fast food and casual dining options are just a short drive away. Don’t feel like going out? Stock up and grill something tasty on the guest-use BBQ facilities.

Nightlife Options

You’re a quick ride away from downtown bars, rooftop lounges, and Richmond’s live music venues. Prefer something low-key? The hotel’s sun terrace is a chill spot to wind down after a show.

Horrible.

Liked: I liked everything about the hotel except the issues I had and the staff was horrible.
Disliked: Not 1 staff member was customer service friendly at all. Dealt with 3 different staff members and all were very very rude. Didn’t help. Had no care in the world. Was not even cordial at arrival. Fire alarm went off at 6am waking me out of my sleep after working 3rd shift. Black lady at customer service desk was not helpful and didn’t care. All guest were walking around asking each other what to do to exit from fire alarm. Agent at desk said she didn’t know what happened and there was no fire and she didn’t care because she was about to go home in 30 minutes. When we asked do we need to go outside she said it doesn’t matter. The safety of all guest lives were not cared about. The sink in my room was broken and wouldn’t drain water and garbage disposal didn’t work. When we reported to the front desk he said he was the only person working and would see what he could do. Nobody ever came to check or fix the issues and we were made to return to room.

Superb

Liked: Room was clean and large. The kitchen was awesome included full fridge and dishwasher. Bathroom was large, shower was hot with good pressure and plenty of room.
Disliked: It was set up for one person. One recliner one desk chair, the bed was the only place to sit as a couple. Very minor inconvenience for all the positives.
