Pros

Close to business locations including Dominion Enterprises and Norfolk Southern

Accessible facilities throughout, including pool, business center, and restaurants

Located off Interstate 264 for easy transportation access

Cons

9.5 miles from Norfolk International Airport

No outdoor pool or terrace space

“Courtyard By Marriott Norfolk Downtown is a mixed bag; while its downtown location near MacArthur Center Mall and the jazz festival is undeniably convenient, there are some significant drawbacks. I noticed mentions of cleanliness issues and a lack of expected amenities, which is especially concerning for a Marriott property. The location and helpful staff are positives, but potential guests should be aware of the reported inconsistencies.”
