I stayed six nights at Wilmington's downtown Doubletree on a group negotiated rate. I'm also a member of the Hilton HHonors program. At the front desk, I was treated as the later, not the former. I point this out because it is not always the case.
My room fell within the parameters of all my "personal requests" made on the HHonors site and within seconds of walking into the room my HHonors extras (extra coffee, extra pillows) were delivered by a very friendly member of the housekeeping staff.
The free internet service was easy to access (I used the wired access & set up my own wireless network) though on the Saturday of my stay, the network was down more than it was up.
Service at the bar the two nights I used it was good and the pours ranged from reasonable to generous, depending on the bartender.
Room service, which I used mainly for breakfast, was very friendly and very prompt. I only had trouble one morning when they just didn't pick up the phone. I'm pretty sure that was an issue of short-staffing and not the fault of the staff itself. The quality of the food ranged between 6 and 8 on a 1-10 scale. The value for money was about average for this level of property.
The 24-hour workout room is small but nice and certainly met my needs, which are entirely cardiovascular. The pool (open 6-10) is big and nicely heated, though the area surrounding it is definitely the most worn of all the areas in the hotel.
The desk staff were friendly and prompt in getting me a taxi and handling my checkout. All in all, a good stay.
I am very likely
to return to the Doubletree Hotel Downtown Wilmington - Legal District.
I would definitely recommend it to friends.
Very friendly staff and they give you

I ordered the sweet romance package that was advertised through the Doubletree's website, and nothing was like the package discribed. The wine wasnt in the room at the time of arrival 2 hours later it showed up, breakfast in bed was cold, and the late check out! Ha! We were told we could check out at 2 o'clock and at almost 10 after 12 we recieved a call from the lobby telling us we had to check out.
My spouse and I visited Wilmington over the weekend and on a Saturday all the shops were closed. We couldn't find much to do around the location of the hotel. Also, we asked the concierge upon check in for what to do around town and he...

This is a nice hotel, they just finished renovations and it is now the Doubletree Wilmington Downtown. This is a new hotel, the staff was great. The indoor pool and shuttle service was great, too. It’s the only hotel in downtown Wilmington that has a shuttle, it’s nice when it rains. This hotel is nicer then the Dupont hotel, and it’s a much better value.
I am very likely
to return to the Doubletree Hotel Downtown Wilmington - Legal District.
I would definitely recommend it to friends.
