The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Petersburg/Dinwiddie By IHG

Comfortable Convenience Just Outside Downtown Petersburg

Modern and budget-friendly, the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Petersburg/Dinwiddie offers a relaxed stay just outside the heart of Petersburg, VA. Located off Boydton Plank Road, this hotel balances accessibility and quiet with a friendly, low-key atmosphere. Whether you're in town for a show or a quick getaway, you'll enjoy its easy access to nearby venues and interstate routes.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a short drive from venues like Sycamore Rouge Theatre and less than 30 miles from Richmond’s biggest concert stages, this hotel puts you within reach of the action without the late-night noise. With a 24-hour front desk and ample parking, it’s perfect if you're getting back late from a gig. The laid-back suburban setting also means fewer post-show crowds and a better chance of a good night’s sleep.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends road-tripping to see a show
- Solo travelers catching a bucket-list band
- Couples looking to mix music and relaxation
- Fans who prefer peace and quiet after a loud night
- Budget-conscious guests wanting value and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t have a full restaurant, guests love the free buffet and continental breakfast—great for refueling the morning after a concert. While there’s no late-night room service, the area features several nearby dining spots within a short drive. And for those midnight cravings, convenience stores and fast food options are close by.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find a bar onsite, but you’re just a short hop from local bars and lounges in downtown Petersburg. For a more relaxed evening, the hotel’s quiet surroundings make it easy to wind down in your room or lounge by the seasonal outdoor pool.

What People Say

Reviews on Booking.com and TripAdvisor highlight the clean rooms, friendly staff, and overall good value. Many guests appreciate the easy access to highways and the peaceful setting that makes for a restful night after a high-energy show. The free breakfast also earns high marks.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that the decor is a bit dated, and a few wished for more on-site dining or bar options. Still, most agree that the cleanliness and service more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

A solid, affordable base for concert-goers who want convenience, comfort, and quiet after the show’s over.

Katherine, Parkton Mon, 30 October 2017

We didn't come there for the breakfast, but for a good night's sleep. So our stay was very nice. I would definitely stay there again.

Liked: The bed was extremely comfortable and the rooms were clean.
Disliked: The breakfast was disappointing. The eggs were like rubber and the bacon was burned.

Good

Liked: Staff very courteous
Disliked: Location could've been better. Never researched this to verify, but we heard what sounded like a saw mill within a hundred yards or so, across the parking lot and behind a row of tall trees, where at midnight through early morning it chopped wood, the noise was loud. Our parked car had a thick layer of saw dust covering it when we departed the next morning. We did our best to clean the windshield. Our bathroom shower drain was black-rimmed with mold, and someone had removed the decorative covering of the drain, left it leaning inside the shower. Water pressure was extremely slow.

Not at all worth the...

Liked: It was close to the event I attended. Staff was friendly, if not helpful.
Disliked: The floors were sticky, dive bar sticky. When I complained at the desk, I was told, "we don't have housekeeping after hours", I was then offered a towel, and told to "splash some water on the floor to wipe it up" myself. There was also some type of unknown wadded tissue/toilet paper on the floor behind the headboard where the pillows lay. I paid WAY too much for the room for the lack of quality I experienced.

If booking for specific amenities,...

Liked: The hotel room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. The staff was lovely. The included breakfast was just ok
Disliked: The room did not have the amenities listed on the booking app. I don't fault the hotel for this, but I paid more than I normally would have because it said the room would have a bathtub and a dvd player. Update the app with current information, or advise users to call the hotel before final booking.
