Top Southwest Raleigh Hotel Reviews

The Umstead Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"N"

Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location to walk to Crabtree Mall or to get to the 540, 440, 40, RTP, Briercreek. The room & bathroom were clean, as was the entire hotel. We didn’t use the pool, gym, bar or restaurant. Parking was convenient and very short walk into the hotel. The only issue we had was the attitude of the Receptionist (Sarah), she was not welcoming & had no professional grace. A sad start but we didn’t interact with her again."

The StateView Hotel, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"This property is splendid and it would be absolutely flawless if it weren't for two things: (1) the bathroom--particularly, the shower; and (2) the lack of soundproofing between rooms. The whole property has such a luxurious feel about it that it was surprising to step into the shower and find a low-budget setup and uncomfortable shower head and handle. And late at night, we could hear conversations from the room next door as if the guests were in the room with us. Besides these two flaws, the rooms are spacious, staff is super friendly, the property is impeccably clean from entrance to room. The shower would be the only reason I wouldn't stay again."
