| - Not so bad, really. I got an Expedia deal relatively last-minute, and with the Triple A discount, it averaged less than $200 a night for the executive floor. Get Triple A, people. They'll come jump your battery if your car dies AND you get discounts on hotel rooms. What's not to love?
The room was nice, bed was huge, and view was pretty. Front desk staff was super nice. The restaurant isn't bad, although the service was spotty at the tables and the bar. The conference space was fine, not so sprawled out that it took you twenty minutes to get to sessions. You're also centrally located in uptown Charlotte, so it's easy to get to wherever you need to go. Parking wasn't crazy, even for two days. The executive lounge was okay, but again with the wine prices. (And I am not cheap, I just don't like paying so much for mediocre wine. Step it up, I'll stop complaining. Maybe.)
Downsides were absurdly high-priced wine for the location (even for a Hilton.) Conference lunch was awful. And when, oh when, will upscale hotels stop charging for wi-fi? If you're already eating your financial lunch to have a $12 glass of wine that doesn't suck, please give me my internet. It'll gain you customer loyalty points that will go a lot farther, I think.
