Review of Omni Charlotte Hotel

It was my first time in North Carolina, and I wanted to meet up with an old college friend who lives in Charlotte and go out. I chose this hotel based on location, and I was very pleased with the what I booked. The hotel is within walking distance of various uptown bars and night clubs (A lot to be found at the EpiCenter) and some great restaurants. If you are looking to close out the bars with friends, I would definitely recommend staying here.

HOWEVER, if you are looking for a quiet place with a good night sleep to rest before an early weekend flight or have children in tow, I would advise against it. I stayed on the 10th floor on a Friday night and could clearly hear the loud music from a neighboring roof nightclub starting at around 8pm. After leaving for the evening, I returned to my room around 1:30am and could still hear music until the club closed at 2. I don't think the club is open M-W, but I could imagine it being very hard to sleep.

Other than that, the rooftop pool was nice, the bed was very comfortable, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and if you sign up for a complementary e-membership for the Omni, they give you free WiFi (I just provided my old e-mail address from high school where groupon deals and other special offers go to die).
