Leisure & Business
There are bands and bowling organised on site. Arrive Wilmington Hotel offers a variety of activities including canoeing, boating, and bowling.
“I think the location is superb, steps from downtown and dozens of restaurants, and a short walk to the Riverwalk; plus, I appreciate the outdoor spaces with fire pits that encourage guests to gather. The decor feels trendy and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches in the rooms and curated mini-bars, making it a comfortable spot to relax. I consider it a cool, locally-focused hotel.”
