Top St. James Hotel Reviews

River Hotel of Southport

10/10 Excellent

"The room was surprisingly spacious and well appointed. Loved the balcony with water view and the pool area. Close to waterfront activities in downtown Southport."

Admiral's Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoy out stay."

Comfort Suites Southport - Oak Island

10/10 Excellent

"At the front desk, Ted was very supportive when we had an issue. Very much appreciated. Hotel is older and somewhat shows its age. However, room was clean and bed very comfortable (as usual with Comfort locations). Toilet leaked however, flushing on its own a couple of times. Breakfast was very good, again as expected. We always try to use Comfort Suites or Inn as no surprises and sleep well."

Best Western Plus Westgate Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Clean friendly excellent breakfast and staff. Will recommend."

Wingate By Wyndham Southport

8/10 Good

"Nice to have large room, nice furnishings. Window A/C has more noise. Glad to not have traffic nearby, peaceful grassy view on back side. No fun to have sausage biscuit in wrapper instead of the expected hot eggs/bacon/sausage on the first day, but it was back after that day. Nice dining area, 2 choices with most items for breakfast. Elevator was creepy with the shuddering and noise as it came to a stop. Shampoo squirt container in shower was empty (found out after already in shower). Taller fridge than I usually see in hotels (no freezer). Loved having four lamps in the room - and they all had “real” light, and not just a 15watt bulb like most! Room was updated and comfortable. Bathroom had roomy countertop. Responsive front desk personnel. Great central location! Will stay there when I come to Southport again!"

Ocean Isle Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Renovations really enhanced our experience! We love the staff and the accommodations. Feels like a second home each time we come."

The Beach House

The Sand Dunes

"We Love sand dunes and admiral quarts usually stay 4 to 5 times a year"

Pirates Cove

"Didn't come ready to use the pool but looked clean and inviting. Didn't see others using it either."
