Sonesta Select Raleigh Durham Airport Morrisville

10/10 Excellent

"We were looking for a hosel where we spend the night before our early flight, get an airport transfer, and could leave our car while we were gone fir a week, it was beautiful and the best $ for parking. Looks like they’re still doing some painting touch ups, but we enjoyed our stay,"

The StateView Hotel, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at The StateView Hotel in Raleigh for NC State Parents Weekend! It was such a lovely home base for spending time with our daughter and enjoying the weekend. The hotel felt welcoming, and we were happy to have a relaxing place to return to after busy days together. With our daughter at NC State, we hope to have plenty of Raleigh visits ahead, and we would gladly stay here again. Highly recommend to fellow Wolfpack families!"
