The 4-star pet-friendly Le Meridien Charlotte hotel, located a mere 9 minutes' walk from NASCAR Hall of Fame, features a sundeck, spa therapy, and a shared lounge.

Location

Mint Museum Uptown is merely 1.4 km from this charming hotel, and the 98-acre Freedom Park is 3.2 km from it. From the smoke-free hotel it will take around 20 minutes to walk to The Bank of America Stadium.

You can catch the bus at South Brevard Street at East Martin Luther King Jr Boulevard bus stop, right near the recently renovated Meridien. The property has a charming location — a 20-minute drive from Charlotte Douglas International airport.

Rooms

All of the non-smoking rooms are complete with a plasma TV set as well as a minibar, and some of them include a sitting area and a dining area. The bathrooms come with a lowered sink, a raised toilet, and a shower, along with a hairdryer and bath sheets. Guests can enjoy views of the city from Le Meridien Charlotte hotel.

Eat & Drink

The American-style Social Kitchen restaurant serves American food. The 24-hour bar which offers refreshing drinks is a great place to relax. The bar area includes a lounge. The Meridien Charlotte features a bar nearby, where guests can enjoy a variety of American cuisine.

Leisure & Business

An indoor swimming pool, a gym area are available at the hotel. This accommodation also provides a conference room and a 24-hour business centre for those arriving on business.

“Le Meridien Charlotte aims for a chic, business-focused experience in Uptown, but reported issues suggest a property struggling to maintain a luxury standard. Its rooftop bar and proximity to the convention center are definite assets. However, a full refresh of the rooms and enhanced attention to service are clearly needed to justify its four-star billing.”
