Below are several other nearby hotel options that we recommend.
AC Hotel by Marriott Raleigh Downtown
Great location near welcome party with amazing rooftop bar views!
The Longleaf Hotel and Lounge
Very cute and trendy with a fun bar onsite.
Holiday Inn Raleigh Downtown
Cheaper option in a hilariously shaped building. Conveniently located about halfway between welcome party and wedding venues.
Hampton Inn & Suites Raleigh Downtown
A few blocks farther from the venues but in a fun area of the Glenwood South neighborhood.
Transportation
Raleigh-Durham International Airport
RDU Airport is just about 25 minutes from downtown Raleigh and the wedding venue, with plenty of rental car options onsite if desired.
For those flying into Raleigh, relying on ride share apps and walking is likely the cheapest and easiest way to get around. (Public transportation here isn't great.)
The hotel is about a 25-minute ride from the airport, and once you're downtown, everything you need will be within walking distance or a very short ride. The wedding venue is a 15-minute walk or very short drive from the hotel.
If you wish to spend a lot of time exploring beyond downtown Raleigh, including Durham and Chapel Hill, a rental car may be more convenient. Parking at the hotel is available for $14 per day.
