The Historic Cavalier Hotel and Beach Club Autograph Collection (Virginia Beach, USA)

The Cavalier Oceanfront Hotel in Virginia Beach offers a stay in a beach locality and proximity to several areas of attractions. The Capri Henry Lighthouse is about five miles from it and museums and art galleries are around three kilometers.

The 400 rooms with interior hallways are spread over ten floors. The rooms have private balconies either facing the ocean completely or partially. All rooms are equipped with cable TVs, coffeemakers, minifridges and microwaves. Suites have an extra balcony, a living room provided with pull out sofas, Jacuzzi and wet bar.

The hotel has a large outdoor pool open seasonally and an indoor pool. A fitness and health center and games room with kids programs is present. A tennis court and playground are also featured. The hotel has three restaurants and a bar and a complimentary continental breakfast is served. A sundry shop is present on site. Guests can hire bicycles to explore the beach and city. Wi-Fi can be freely accessed in the rooms and in other places of the hotel.

Parking is an issue at the hotel as guests have to either park their cars across the street or pay a high charge to park it in the hotel parking lot.

Breakfast crowd is too huge and guests have to wait long hours in line each morning. The hotel runs out of food, sometimes before many guests get to have breakfast. They find the food average and repetitive.

Housekeeping is not regular and at times guests find their rooms not cleaned at all. The elevator entrance, patio and pool area have overloaded trash cans around, which guests find unpleasant.
