ENJOY EASY ACCESS TO VIRGINIA BEACH, TOWN CENTER AND NORFOLK ATTRACTIONS
The ocean may draw people to Virginia Beach, but the array of attractions entices them to stay longer. Guests staying at Courtyard Virginia Beach Norfolk on a business trip, visiting an active duty member at a naval base or vacationing with the family will find Virginia is for lovers of the beach - and so much more.
Getting Around
Centrally located between Virginia Beach and Norfolk, our hotel offers easy access to the highway, the Virginia Beach Town Center and The Tide light rail with service to downtown Norfolk.
Heading to the oceanfront? There's a Hampton Roads Transit station about one 1 mile from the Town Center hotel. To walk there, take a right onto Newtown Road and stroll until you hit Virginia Beach Boulevard. If you're driving to the beach, turn right out of the hotel parking lot and continue straight past the first stoplight. This becomes the on-ramp for 264 East. Follow it for about 12 miles until it ends at the oceanfront.
