Venues & Event Spaces in Charlottesville, VA

“Excellent theater in Cville, have done around 10 shows here, great to perform on and comfortable for the audience. Dressing rooms are comfortable, and parking is better than in some areas. Plenty to eat or drink before a show but not a theater to miss out on.”

“My daughter and I love this store. Her passion for art was getting prohibitively expensive at Michael’s but this place makes it so much more affordable. We are overflowing with art supplies now and yet we always find more things to use every visit.

The staff is always super kind and generous when stuffing the bags.

We did her birthday party in the studio and it was great. All the kids and parents had a lot of fun.”

“We went for the Patti Griffen concert on August 1. We had the best seats in the house; E1 and E2 on the right side with uninterrupted views of the stage. The theatre is small and cozy and intimate. We like this so much better than the mega concert venues. The acoustics were great. The theater is situated in the downtown mall area, so wicked convenient to our hotel and favorite restaurants.”

“You can actually watch the grapes come in and go up the conveyor belt to the press. They have s glass floor we here you can see it in real time. They Harvest for the rest of August & September. Its a beautiful facility & you can see the vines from. The tasting room. Its a must visit.

Even if you are not a white wine person, try tge saviginin blanc”

“Eastwood Farm & Winery hosted our Porsche Club group the final evening of a 6 day drive along with local members. The libations, food and music were great and the venue relaxed and near our hotel.”

“The view from the front porch of this vineyard is one that I could just sit for hours and stare at. Some of their wines are award winning. Enjoyed petting the horses that came up to visit us as well.”

“My first time coming to this venue. The venue is great. The staff that I interacted with were friendly as well. water bottles were passed out during the concert as well which was very nice to see. The bathroom was pretty clean considering how many drunk people there were using it!”

“We chose The Space Downtown for our wedding reception, and it completely exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we walked in, we were absolutely blown away by how stunning it is. The exposed brick walls give it such a warm, industrial-chic feel, perfectly complemented the beautiful large bar. We loved the option to customize the chalkboards, and the lit lanterns hanging from the ceiling created the most magical, romantic ambiance, especially once the sun went down. Our guests are still raving about how gorgeous the space was weeks later. The food was another standout. They offer a wonderful variety of menu choices and options, so we were able to create the perfect spread for our guests. Everything was absolutely amazing, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Multiple people have told us it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had, and we couldn’t agree more. We especially appreciated how they personally paired wine selections to complement the chosen dishes, which elevated the entire dining experience.
Beyond the aesthetics and cuisine, the location is ideal. Nestled right in downtown, it offers easy access to parking and plenty of nearby spots for guests to grab drinks if they arrive early. It made the whole evening flow effortlessly. A huge shoutout to Laura, the event coordinator. She is truly one of a kind, professional, incredibly communicative, and always got information back to us in a timely manner. Working with her was an absolute pleasure and took so much stress off our plates. Choosing The Space Downtown was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We couldn’t have been more thrilled with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for a venue that delivers on beauty, quality, and service, look no further. Highly, highly recommend !!!”

“Looking for a quieter non-chain stay for our anniversary, this seemed a good fit. The history of the property is neat. Needs cosmetics, food is a touch underwhelming, and there isn’t much to do or places to relax on property. Staff is very friendly and helpful.”

“We absolutely loved having our wedding at Old Metropolitan Hall! The space is so unique and full of character—it was the perfect setting for our celebration with 65 guests. It felt intimate yet spacious, and created such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Everything came together beautifully, and we’re so happy we chose this venue for our special day!”

“Great hotel in every way; location amazing and staff and cleanliness stood out above all. Really a nice place, well kept, and I would highly recommend it and also happily stay here again.”

“My husband and I joined the Greencroft Club two years ago. We love the dining experience and are now converts to Pickle Ball. The courts are world class. We have made new friends and have enjoyed relaxing by the pool.”

“Lovely location with quality food and coffee! I’ll definitely be back to try something different - many options. Beautiful building - open and quiet breakfast spot. Very attentive - super pleasant barista. Delicious latte, could have been 10 degrees hotter but flavor very smooth. Had two really good pastries. I appreciate that they are nice sized! A strawberry rhubarb turnover and cranberry crumb cake. Both delicious. Will be back to try the pizza in the brick oven.”

“EXCELLENT! We hosted a rehearsal dinner / welcome party for our son and now daughter-in-law at LEVEL10 in April 2024. This venue is incredible. All of our guests loved the views and elevated space! We worked with Taz to set up everything and she was fantastic. Taz went above and beyond to get us perfectly set up and then completely packed up at the end of the night. I was planning everything remotely and Taz was able to answer all of my questions and then also offer some great recommendations that made the night run without a hitch! Located on the 10th floor - there are beautiful views of the mountains and downtown Charlottesville. The patio is so well heated you can be comfortable your guests can mingle inside or outside without any concern! With AMPLE parking and the access to the space only for guests attending it was perfect for our guests. Everything you need is in the space from the sound system, to video screens, to lighting. LEVEL10 is a truly awesome spot to hold any event!! THANK YOU LEVEL10 for an outstanding evening!”

“Clean, modern, spacious rooms. Convenient location - if you are a Tesla or EV driver, this hotel is hard to beat with both slow CCS and NACS superchargers in parking lot. Proximity to Stonefield Shops is very convenient.”

“Oakhurst Inn was a special place to stay on my birthday and it has overwhelmingly attentive front desk and valet service. I spent my birthday here and it was a last minute plan after finding out my dog has a terminal illness. The staff were so kind and helpful. My trip to Charlottesville will be remembered for many reasons. It will be a fond memory and keepsake of this trip with my dog during this time in her life. Thank you, Oakhurst Inn for providing this service and making things so seamless. If you travel with pets, Oakhurst Inn offers select rooms. Call in advance to make sure one is available. They don't have a refrigerator in the room so plan ahead if you have any food or items that are perishable. Enjoy your stay with your furry friend.”

“We absolutely love The Barn at Turkey Ridge, not only for the beauty of the venue but also for the beauty of those who run it. Millie and Judy are the sweetest and most helpful venue managers, helping us find multiple of our wedding vendors and to visualize our big day. Not only that, they easily accommodated our shift from an April wedding to last weekend, a rescheduling request no one wanted but that was needed amid a global pandemic.Speaking of which, as the venue’s only couple this year to go through with our big day, I feel extra inclined to share how wonderful it was to work with both Millie and Judy. They were super responsive, they allowed us to visit multiple times and for our vendors to visit as well, and they were great day- and week-of in making sure we were all set. They care about each of the couples that hosts their wedding at the Barn - and it’s easily seen in how they participate in the wedding day, from opening the barn doors for the big reveal to helping the catering team and cleaning up at the end of the night.The barn, Millie, and Judy hold special spots in our hearts, as we wouldn’t have had nearly as special a day without them.”

“Very cute hotel!!! Bed was SO comfortable. The bar was really cute and the bartender was really friendly (studying to become a mixologist so offered to craft our cocktails based on what we were craving). Parking is valet only and $15 per car. The pool area and main building were all very cute with a cozy polished aesthetic throughout. Only (very minor) down side was I was looking forward to a morning sauna session before checkout but it wasn’t on and would probably take all day to heat up. I would 100% stay here again!”

“I am not sure why the rating isn't at least 4 stars across-the-board! When I review/rate places, I try and look at it as a whole and yes, some of the particular details as well. I account for imperfections (because no one is perfect) and lastly, the general feel of how an establishment makes me feel is very important! With all that being said, Home2 suites is amazing! Because of contractors, and issues with my apartment. I have been staying in hotels for over a month. I have switched a few times because of supply and demand. What I can say is, of the 4 places I have stayed Home2 Suites is by far the best! This is my experience from my past 2 lengthy stays: Home2suites has been consistently friendly, welcoming, definitely accommodating, and kind. They make me feel always wanted and cared for by each and every staff member I have had communication with. I have a king size suite, and it is very reasonably priced. My room is clean in good condition and has all the amenities one could ask for.! There is a full-size fridge with a separate freezer in my room! This is very important if one would want to freeze water bottles have frozen dinners, ice cream, etc. Many hotels have fridges with tiny freezers that are connected inside the fridge. So the freezer part never really stays frozen. Bathrooms have all the tissues towels, shampoo, soap, and conditioner, make up wipes, hair dryers, and everything else you can think ofTV is huge and easy to figure out attaching my fire stick ( for Netflix,Hulu, etc.) I love how this hotel has full-size washers and dryers!!! These are free to all the guests and they're down by the gym, just bring your own washing soap. (Or you can buy it there) Breakfast is free and every day omelettes are made, muffins, granola, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, oatmeal you name it...you got it !When I wanted a certain kind of coffee, they took the Keurig out and put a different machine in (maybe Nepresso?) for my coffee tastes!! How cool is that! Anyway, I could go on but this hotel is amazing whether you want a room or a suite they got you covered! You can literally walk to the downtown mall or IX park which are both great places for Saturday morning markets ! This is an extremely good location and beautiful property ... there is a really nice outdoor covered seating area with a fire pit right by the front entrance! And I think I saved the best for last ... the STAFF !!! I don't know who does your hiring, but they have done well. These employees are some of the best people I have met and I live in Charlottesville ! Well done Home2 Suites, I definitely will be back and I will send any out-of-town friends (who can't stay with me) straight over to you !”

“I've been there several times for birthday events, job events, and just to hang out. One of the best atmospheres and great customer service. The music and food is top notch and the workers really care.”

“The Omni is a pretty hotel that is in a fantastic location. The front desk staff, valet staff, and the staff in the Conservatory were great. The Hillock, not so much though (more on that in a bit).

The room was pretty clean and away from the elevator, as is our preference. There was plenty of clothing storage, both hangers and drawers, which seems to be rare these days! The bed was a bit hard, but that is fairly typical for most hotels.

We loved The Conservatory. We had drinks there one night and dessert another night. It's very pretty and the staff was great.

Now for the bad. We ate breakfast one morning at The Hillock and it was terrible. We were waiting to be seated and apparently the folks in front of us were with a wedding party. The manager spoke with them at length and completely ignored us while blocking the way when another staff member came to seat us. Unfortunately things did not get better. It took 10 minutes to get coffee. We never got menus (and we did ask for menus) so we decided to try the buffet, but it was barely edible. We eat buffet breakfasts in hotels a lot but this one was about the worst we've had. Definitely not worth the price. Maybe the ala carte is better, but our experience was bad enough that we didn't want to give a second chance.”

“We were visiting from out-of-town and attended Toddler Time. Our toddlers had the best time and didn’t want to leave. Between the trampolines and the play area for littles, we had plenty to keep us occupied for the 2 hours!

The manager, Caitlyn, was very personable and stopped by to check-in. She interacted with our kiddos and made us all feel very welcomed. We appreciated the extra effort!

The treats at the end of our play time were an added bonus!”
