Hotels Near The Holy Rose in Raleigh

This hotel tries to be modernist. However, many things and services don't meet the standards. My husband and I are staying in this hotel. On the first day, there was no cleaning service. The housekeeping staff locked our door, and when I asked her to come back in 2 hours, she never did. You should also check your room for cleanliness. I found many small dirt spots on the floor, and the room was not cleaned during our 4-night stay. If you are a more traditional traveler, this hotel does not have a closet or dresser for you to put clothes in. Basically, you are living out of your suitcase. If you are staying for just a day or two, it might be fine, but for three or more days with a spouse, I would not recommend it. The hotel restaurant is called ”GOOD DAY GOOD NIGHT.” If you go there for breakfast, your ”GOOD DAY GOOD NIGHT” will turn into a bad day. We left the restaurant completely disappointed and hungry. If this is a Marriott hotel chain, what is the Marriott standard for this particular hotel? My husband and I went to the restaurant for breakfast on the day we checked out. The server was nice and friendly. She took our order for coffee but tried to avoid taking our breakfast order because the chef instructed her not to take orders until he was ready. However, we waited for more than 20 minutes and tried to get her attention for our order. That's when we found out the situation. We were completely shocked.

My six year old daughter and I came to Raleigh for an overnight girls’ shopping trip while her brother was at sleep away camp. This property came recommended from a colleague who frequently visits. I cannot say enough, good things about how convenient it is to the different places we were trying to go. Being Wolfpack fans, our Bell Tower view did not disappoint! More that, our experience was made by the front desk attendant, Dwight. He could not have been more friendly and welcoming, particularly to my daughter. He asked her name and used her name whenever he saw her on property. It made her night when we came back from shopping and he called out to her. He truly went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable- she was like Eloise at the Plaza!

Before I arrived, I had read there are future plans to demolish and replace this hotel. But I wasn't expecting there to be a complete lack of basic upkeep. Property is in serious need of some maintenance. Paint peeling, chips and cracks, only one elevator operational. Elevator shakes a bit, felt unstable, and looked like it hasn't been swept or vacuumed out in a long time. Overall dark, dirty, and dingy and feels like a deserted property. Room door hard to open and close, and there was a thick coat of white dust covering my room window. As a woman traveling alone, I really didn't feel comfortable being here. Train tracks are a very short distance away and horns blow multiple times a night making it difficult to sleep. Restaurant is closed and there aren't many amenities. Front desk staff was very friendly and the only real highlight here. Wouldn't stay again.

Fabulous Customer Service! Team members like Jamel make you feel welcome and he was so very helpful. He was so friendly, we had no problems. The hotel was packed but he made sure that my young adults and I had rooms right next to each other. It meant so much as we came in from different Cities. We had a marvelous trip to Raleigh.

The hotel is too stingy! The water flow is deliberately adjusted to be very small, as thin as a pencil, and it takes half a day to rub the towel. The water tank in the toilet was also working intermittently, and the sliding door of the shower room would slide open automatically when closed, so I had no choice but to use something to hold it up. I don’t even know how the four stars came about? Maybe it's just that the external environment of the hotel is good, but it's just fake! Will never stay at this hotel again.
