The StateView Hotel, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

Kasa Village District Raleigh

10/10 Excellent

"Great location !"

Hampton Inn & Suites Raleigh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful experience. I was in town for literally 24 hours for a wedding, they were able to accommodate early check in which was so appreciated! My first room had an issue with the AC but I was rushing for the wedding so I mentioned it on my way out, hoping maintenance could fix while I was gone. Immediately Bee at the front desk had it handled! At 11pm when I came back from the wedding, she had arranged for my room to be switched and the AC in that room was perfect. Also a shoutout to Tiana and Ashley at the front desk. These 3 women are 10/10!"

Raleigh Marriott City Center

10/10 Excellent

Guest House Raleigh

10/10 Excellent

"If you are looking for a “not hotel” hotel in Raleigh, Guest House Raleigh is a good option. Clean and comfortable room, nice bathroom, quiet, and minutes walk from restaurants, convention center, etc. The amenities are basic - coffee in the room, basic breakfast stuff, and delicious cookies. After years of corporate travel, I prefer to stay where it feels more like staying in a home. Guest House Raleigh is that. Highly recommend"
