Tru by Hilton Wilmington Wrightsville Beach

The staff at this hotel were great! Rooms were clean and nice. Breakfast was good with lots of options! The hotel was in a safe area with shops and restaurants very close by. I like the sitting area with pool table too. I would definitely stay here again!

(+) The hotel is certainly new (as of August 2024) and everything feels that way (furniture, carpets, elevators, common areas etc.) (+) The area around the hotel is nice and convenient. ~10 min drive to Johnnie Mercers Fishing Pier and Wrightsville Beach, ~30 min to Topsail Beach. No shady people around the hotel, feels very safe. (+) Staff is very friendly (+) 24/7 access to coffee/tea in the lobby is a big thing in my book! Love it! (+) There is a pool table in the lobby!!! I think this is the first hotel I've ever been to with a pool table! (+/-) Breakfast is offered, although it is extremely basic and bland. (-) Room cleaning could be a bit better. We usually go barefoot in hotel rooms in the summer, and we took off our shoes right away when we first entered the room. We quickly realized it was a mistake as floors were simply dirty. We've seen roomkeeping staff with vacuum cleaners though, so hopefully this was not a systemic thing there. (-) Breakfast can be a hit or miss, both in terms of quality and quantity. The first morning it was okay-ish, but the second morning (Sunday) there were much more people in the hotel, and the staff had a hard time to refill omelette area in time for people coming down to have a breakfast. In general, I would not expect a free hotel breakfast to be great, but I feel like it was excessively bland here.
