Hyatt House Raleigh Downtown/Seaboard Station

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful and clean room: the restaurant on the 7th floor was a plus!!! Beautiful view from room, enjoyed my stay!!"

Sheraton Raleigh Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Hampton Inn & Suites Raleigh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was good"

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."
