Tucked away from the hustle-and-bustle of Richmond in a West End community called Glen Allen is the elegant and estate-like Wyndham Virginia Crossings Hotel. Sitting on 20 beautiful acres, this colonial-style hotel is wreathed in manicured lawns and boasts a country club resort ambiance that is so pretty many weddings have taken place here. Yes, the property is off the beaten path but no need for concern — the Wyndham is a mere 16 minutes from downtown Richmond and 20-minutes from the Richmond airport.

The hotel is comprised of three buildings, each named after a famous Virginia President: Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe Halls. The property offers two dining spots: The Glen Restaurant where a lavish breakfast buffet happens every morning, and The Tavern & Grill, where guests can pick up lunch or dinner. The grill’s outdoor patio sports more of that country club-feel with beautiful tables, umbrellas, and a fire pit, all overlooking the beautiful pool, whirlpool and more seemingly endless green spaces. The property also has both a volleyball sandpit, basketball court and large fitness room, all kept in pristine condition. The property shoulders a stunning 18-hole golf course.

The Wyndham has 183 guestrooms each with a flat-screen, a mini-fridge, an iPod-friendly clock radio, data ports, and free Wi-Fi.
