Top Johnson C. Smith University Hotel Reviews

Home2 Suites by Hilton Charlotte Uptown, NC

10/10 Excellent

"La ubicación buena queda enfrente del Museo de Nascar,!habitacion muy limpia, faltan cosas del aseo personal y cuesta que le den agua pura , dicen que solo para miembros la mayoría de hoteles dan agua pura para la noche, lo caro es que cobran el parqueo"

Hampton Inn Charlotte-Uptown

8/10 Good

"everything was clean and all employees were very nice. only thing is i wish breakfast didnt end at 9am!"

Residence Inn by Marriott Charlotte City Center

8/10 Good

"Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would stay again. Price was reasonable. Self parking rate matches other hotels. Staff was very friendly. Room exceeded my expectations. What I liked: Room was a mini suite. It had a kitchen with 3/4 fridge, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, coffee machine, real plates, glasses and tableware, some utensils including cutting board and peeler. There is a sleeper sofa (I didn't check it out) and desk on one side of room with swivel big TV between that room and the bed. Bathroom is spacious with walk-in shower. Dressing area has a mirrored counter. Breakfast was fine, except oatmeal was too thick. Bacon was wonderfully crisp. What I didn't like: Lighting is dim throughout. Light switches are odd - sometimes you have to switch the one at the door to turn on all overhead lights. Sofa is not comfortable to sit on because the cushions compact when you sit down. Then you have a problem getting up. Two hotels on top of each other may seem interesting but this seemed to make the elevators slow to come. You have to scan twice to get out of the parking lot. The scanners are too far to reach from the car so I had to partially open my door each time. And, there is no "out" in the first row of the P4 level so if there are no spaces, you have to back out or turn around carefully. Ice maker in fridge doesn't work bur you can get a small bag of ice from the little market area next to reception (at no charge)."

JW Marriott Charlotte

10/10 Excellent

"In town for a conference at the convention center. The JW Marriott is a beautiful hotel with excellent restaurants. We enjoyed both the pool and the gym. The is also plenty to do in the area and even more great restaurants in easy walking distance."

Sheraton Charlotte Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bedroom and bathroom were spotless. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our only complaint was that the bathroom door would not latch, leaving us to place a nearby luggage rack against it to close completely. I imagine that housekeeping would never be aware of such a problem, so we reported it upon departing. Otherwise, this is a location convenient to downtown Charlotte, and we'd consider it on future visits."

Grand Bohemian Charlotte, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, great check in experience, fabulous decor, and Great location. Loved the rooftop bar and restaurant."

SpringHill Suites Charlotte City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay and close to spectrum center"

Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly and nice staff. Valet parking team was very nice. Silias,Anthony and Dre did a great job communicating with me about the time my car suitor be ready. I definitely will be back again when visiting Charlotte again."

The Ivey's Hotel

8/10 Good

"WiFi had trouble. System down when I arrived, didn’t have card key first night. Not great for business travel imho. But super cool place for those cooler than me."
