Top Raleigh Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn Raleigh Midtown

8/10 Good

"Very clean and great location. Breakfast and pool was great and staff very pleasant. Overall great value!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Univ Area Chapel Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Loved being here. The night before we spent at the University Inn in Durham. What a dump! Noisy, brightly lit, foam bed and huge pillows that were unusable. On and no breakfast and about $30 a night more expensive. The only thing going for it was a shuttle to Duke. Far better to stay here, drive to Duke and park in a university garage"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Raleigh Downtown North

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was good"

Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley

8/10 Good

"The room was functional, but small. Bathroom was tiny."
