"Excellent safe location! Very clean!"

Homewood Suites By Hilton Charlotte Uptown First Ward

10/10 Excellent

"I didn't stay long because I had to leave early but the time I spent was perfect the staff was nice parking wasn't bad we paid to self park to not have to wait on valet but that was an option. Guest had to scan into the building so it felt safe I would stay here again. The suite was clean and affordable."

Moxy Charlotte Downtown

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay at the Moxy but there was a situation I want to make other guests aware of. There was a DJ playing on the rooftop one of the nights we were staying. My husband wanted to go up to the bar to grab a drink before we went to grab dinner and he was told he was not allowed to go to the bar as a paying hotel guest without paying $10 for the DJ show. They were extremely rude and unprofessional about the entire thing. Please fix this issue."
