Top North Carolina Museum of History Hotel Reviews

Tempo By Hilton Raleigh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel & conveniently located"

Hilton Raleigh North Hills

8/10 Good

"The hotel was really nice. The events were unlimited, to the point there were no parking for the customers staying there."

Hyatt House Raleigh Downtown/Seaboard Station

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our stay here! The hotel was very clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect and the breakfast wasn't too bad. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance, making it a great spot if you’re staying in downtown Raleigh. The only issue we experienced was on our last morning, when there was quite a bit of noise from what sounded like furniture being moved above us around 5:30 a.m. It woke us up earlier than expected. This was only an issue that one morning, though, and otherwise our stay was great. We would definitely stay here again!"

Sheraton Raleigh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay when attending a show"

AC Hotel by Marriott Raleigh Downtown

8/10 Good

"My stay was okay overall, but there were several service issues. When I arrived at the hotel, the front desk staff had difficulty finding my reservation, and it took quite a while to resolve. Eventually, I was given cards for complimentary breakfast the following morning for both myself and the person I was traveling with, as I had booked two rooms. The following day, by 2:00 PM, my room still had not been cleaned. I had to call housekeeping to request that my room be serviced. I feel that daily room cleaning should be provided without guests having to call and request it. After my room was cleaned, I noticed that housekeeping had not left soap in my bathroom. I called Guest Services, but after waiting for more than an hour, nothing was done. I had to call again before someone finally came to bring the soap. I also noticed that the other room I had booked had items provided that were not left in my room, such as shoe-care items and cotton swabs. I would expect the same basic amenities to be provided consistently in both rooms. Overall, there were several avoidable service issues during my stay. I hope the hotel improves its housekeeping and front-desk service."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Raleigh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Can't say enough about how pleasant of a stay this was. From the room, to the breakfast, to the friendly staff. Just 5 star all around!"

The Casso, Raleigh, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place; great location; great staff"

Residence Inn by Marriott Raleigh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best that I’ve ever stayed at. The location is right next to the convention center. So clean and spacious! I particularly love the high ceiling"
