Wonderful room, great museum, awesome bar...
Roy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location and great place to stay

Amazing staff and managers! It was such a fun art gallery combined with a very comfy room. The location is also awesome! You can walk to a ton of good restaurants and be sure to check out The Parlour if you want a scoop of ice cream.
Kirsti, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not nice!!

We didn’t feel safe in the area. The restaurant is very mediocre, specially the restaurant.
Patricia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Classy with a hard bed

Very nice place - well kept - very clean and modern. Art museum running through three floors was a very nice addition to the experience. Bed, however, was rock hard. I’m sure everyone has their individual preference but I’ll have to stay somewhere else in the future just for that reason. Excellent neighborhood and great restaurants all around.
David, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing - must go again!

This was one of the best experiences in a hotel, and I have traveled around the globe. The staff here was absolutely phenomenal, and the manager at the front desk was absolutely lovely, caring, accommodating, and kind. From the housekeeping staff to the valet it was absolutely amazing. The restaurant staff is something to be desired, but hopefully they will learn in time because they all seemed new, but we’re absolutely lovely even though they didn’t know much about the menu. That’s just me being brutally honest. The room was absolutely clean and comfortable, and the best of all was that it was quiet. Everything about the hotel was chic and cool and I couldn’t have wished for better for my short stay to visit my friend in Raleigh.
Claire, 1-night trip

The staff from valet, front desk, house keeping, maintenance, and restaurant were friendly and polite, made our experience lovely!

Unique Hotel

This hotel is unique with an art museum inside the hotel. As you walk down the halls, you enjoy paintings, sculptures as well as small exhibits. The room was comfortable and had everything you need for a nice stay. We loved the reusable water bottles waiting for us in the room. The restaurant, The Counting House, has a small dinner menu, but everything we had was delicious. This old bank building is charming and has some of the original features of the bank including the large vault in the basement. There was a sauna and a steam room, a small fitness room with enough free weights and exercise bands to get a decent workout. It was a hot summer weekend so I would have loved a pool, but other than that, everything was great! We used the municipal garage down the block instead of the valet parking. There are nice coffee shops, restaurants and bakeries all within a few blocks of the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for an evening at the Carolina Theater.

Jackie, 1-night trip

Staff were all very helpful, but the air conditioning in our room didn’t work. They moved us to another room. The art work in the hotel is a definite plus. The hotel is a moderate walk to several restaurants.

Beautiful Art Museum
Leah, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

I felt like the room was way overpriced! I also felt that the lighting in the room was a lot to be desired. The way the buttons worked, either all the lights were on or all the lights were off. That was the most unusual thing I’ve ever seen in our room, and I travel quite a bit! I also felt my throne was very small with little or no sitting space.
Anthony, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was top notch, and the aesthetics pleasing. I did, however, find the beds, bedding, towels, and robe to be subpar. Not a great sleep or shower experience.
Kristie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was a great place to stay with convenient distances to bars and restaurants
Shane, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel is in fair condition and room was clean. Downside is the room AC which didn’t work properly and room was a bit musty. We had to swap rooms in order to get a less musty experience. For some reason we didn’t have hot water running at all in the evening nor in the morning…not to bad since the weather was hot, but this is not a 3 star hotel should miss in any circumstances. I recommend other hotels near by for weekend stays/visits.
