Charlotte Where to Stay Guide

Description:

Although it can't be said for every metropolitan city in the south, Charlotte offers a little bit of everything when it comes to accommodations. Charlotte features hotels that rise above the landscape, historic mansions converted to bed and breakfasts and even hotel resorts. While in many southern cities you may only find one or the other, Charlotte offers a full gamut of lodging options.

If you're the type of traveler that stays in the big brand luxury hotels, then you'll have no problem finding one to satisfy your taste in Charlotte. Hotels on the luxury side include several Marriotts spread throughout the city and a Westin Hotel. For a complete vacation, the Ballantyne Resort Hotel in Charlotte is a city in itself with a luxurious spa, golf course, tennis, restaurants and other activities. If you want something a little more cozy and down to earth, there are many quaint inns and bed and breakfasts. The Duke Mansion, formerly the home of James Buchanan Duke, is a Charlotte bed and breakfast that has built for itself a reputation of providing outstanding service coupled with elegant accommodations.

    Description:

    Constructed in 1929, this is one of Charlotte's oldest and most historic hotels. These days, the big names often go elsewhere, but old-timers still prefer the Dunhill's European-style comfort and charm. (The doorman out front often greets returning guests by name.) In the old days, it was called the Mayfair Manor, and some of its most loyal clients still refer to it that way. The artwork in the public areas is by North Carolinian Philip Moose, and a piano player entertains in the stylish lobby. The restored guest rooms have a warm, cozy feeling; they're furnished with handsome reproductions and often with four-poster beds. Monticello's is the hotel restaurant, offering excellent cuisine throughout the day. Health-club privileges can be arranged.
