The hotel staff were so kind and helpful. The Barrister's restaurant was exceptional and so were the staff. Gourmet meals with southern flare, and great cocktails. A simple breakfast and coffee are provided each morning, except for Sunday. There is a nice Rotary built park on the back side of the hotel that was nice, as a Juntenth celebration was held during my stay. A great location just outside of Charlotte, but close to other cities that offer great activies to visit each day. ##### Cynthia Gregg Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bobby Jan 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff was great, super friendly and helpful with suggestions for places in the area to eat.
