Top Downtown Raleigh Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Raleigh

10/10 Excellent

"The property was well maintained for an older property. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. The staff was courteous, friendly, and very helpful."

The Longleaf Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My son and I came down to Raleigh for a concert at Red Hat Amphitheater and decided to stay at Longleaf Hotel. We had a great experience! From the moment we walked in, the employees were friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. Parking was only $10 a night, which I thought was very reasonable. Our room was clean, and all of the towels, washcloths, and bedding were fresh and clean. The bed was comfortable, and the pillows were BIG and so fluffy! After a long night, that definitely made a difference. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again if we come back to the Raleigh area. Highly recommend!"
