Top Johnson C. Smith University Hotel Reviews

Omni Charlotte Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel for a quick visit. Very central but some of the areas outside were a bit sketchy"

Home2 Suites by Hilton Charlotte Uptown, NC

10/10 Excellent

"It was a pleasant stay downtown Charlotte, right in the middle of everything staff. The hotel was perfect. I definitely stay there again."

AC Hotels by Marriott Charlotte City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely worth the value."

Sheraton Charlotte Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great thanks so much!"

Moxy Charlotte Downtown

8/10 Good

"The Moxy was a great hotel. Staff was excellent. The roof top bar was great and such a cool vibe. Rooms were clean. Plenty of towels. Only negatives were no mini fridge or table in the room and parking was pricey. We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!"

Grand Bohemian Charlotte, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay"

Residence Inn by Marriott Charlotte City Center

8/10 Good

"Very good location, near the Sprinter bus to the airport and other local bus routes, plus a couple of train lines for other routes and connects. Also within a couple of blocks to many of the main Center City attractions, bars, and restaurants. The building is shared with another Marriott brand, so the elevators can be a bit of a wait, but the room itself was a decent layout and reasonable size. Clean. Comfortable beds. TV did not seem to be a smart tv, if that matters to anyone booking, but it did have a ton of plug spots for people who carry HDMI or other wires for connectivity. Reliable basic continental breakfast buffet. Friendly staff. We did not use parking, short trip."

Homewood Suites By Hilton Charlotte Uptown First Ward

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location close to City Center - - - parking was expensive - - - dog friendly."

Hampton Inn Charlotte-Uptown

8/10 Good

"The location was excellent for us to go to a concert at the Bank of America Stadium. We were able to walk there in about 15 minutes. The room was clean, breakfast was decent, and we felt safe. The hotel itself is laid out very awkwardly and somewhat difficult to navigate and we paid an extraordinarily high price due to the fact that they increase pricing quite a bit for events. I know this isn’t unusual and I understand it, but I do think that three times the typical price is a bit much. Still it was nice to be able to just walk back-and-forth and not have to worry about parking at the stadium or how to get there and back."
