Located at 505 North 2nd Street in Downtown Wilmington, The Hive is a limited-service boutique hotel. Suites feature king-sized beds, walk-in showers, and curated custom artwork. Pets are welcome in select suites with prior approval.
Halfway between a hotel and an AirBNB, The Hive offers a unique lodging experience. There’s no staff on-site though Gillis is only a text away (and quite responsive). While some travelers may find themselves missing some of the typical hotel perks, The Hive was perfect for our purposes. Situated next to CFCC and two blocks from The Riverfront, The Hive’s location is hard to beat. We found plenty to eat, drink, and do within a ten-minute walk.
Our suite was spacious and full of thoughtful touches (such as complimentary snacks and drinks). Creepy bathroom sloth painting notwithstanding, fun artwork and eclectic design helped give the suite a welcome dose of character. The amenities were also great: the bed was comfortable, the bathroom was huge, and the shower boasted strong water pressure. While The Hive is, on average, cheaper than nearby hotels, paying $19 a day for its lot across the street felt like a reach.
Overall,
we enjoyed our stay here. This Hive proved to be far from wretched and was, thankfully, scum and villainy free.
