“Good Hotel Good Location but check prices through other sites”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 17, 2012

We had a family function in North Carolina near Lake Norman so we booked into this hotel as we often stay at Country Inn Suites in Florida. I booked a Queen Suite for 2 nights. I thought the price seemed high for the time of year, but booked anyway. I received my conformation and was still bothered by the price so I started checking other sites and sure enough found a much lower price through Hotwire. Country Inn Suites online booking promises to beat any price you find lower then their own site by 15% if you contact them within 24 hours of booking. I emailed them the information and they totally honored my lower price and adjusted my rate. It was well worth the time to check rates.

The hotel itself is in good shape. The lobby is attractive and they kept restocking the free cookies and coffee. The room was nice with a separate bedroom from the TV area with a closeable door. The free breakfast is more then adequate but no hot food was served. They did have make your own waffles with whipped cream and strawberries as well as microwaveable bacon, egg and cheese biscuits. The free Wifi worked well and parking was easy.

The pool area was off the breakfast room and looked nice but we never went in. They also had a business center ,where we were able to print out our boarding passes. The hotel staff was friendly and attentive. We had a small problem with a drain in the bathroom and it was fixed very quickly with little disruption. All in all our stay was pleasant and if we are back in the area we would probably stay there again.

Room Tip: Check prices and request a room away from the interstate.

“More than I expected”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 8, 2012

I've stayed at several Country Inns & Suites (in multiple states) since October of 2007, and I have to say that this was one of THE BEST trips for me. I recently had to travel to New Jersey to take care of my 97 year old mother-in-law, and I stayed in both Roanoke, VA (North bound) and Lake Norman, NC (South bound) on the way to and from Georgia to New Jersey (and back). Both the staff and the accommodations in both cities were beyond my expectations. The staff at both locations provided me with all kinds of information and directions to different restaurants and nearby attractions, and made sure that my stay was excellent. Kudos to everyone in both locations, and I look forward to staying with you again!!!!!!

“Excellent Charlotte Area Accommodations”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 8, 2012

We live in Huntersville. We stayed at the Country Suites last night because our air conditioner was shut down for the evening for repairs. The accommodations could not have been better. The suites are well furnished and attractive. The staff was professional and cheerful. The continental breakfast was much better than average.

The hotel is conveniently located at Exit 25 on I-77, about ten miles north of Charlotte. There are several full service restaurants within the complex that guests can easily walk to, including a Chili's and a Melting Pot.

“Very Accomidating”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 23, 2012

We always stay at Country Inns because they are one of the few hotels that can accommodate six people in one room. In addition, they have in door pools, which means you can have fun even in the winter and when the weather is rainy. But to this specific trip and hotel. We were traveling and our van was running hot to the point that we had to get it repaired. We contacted them before we even got to the hotel and they were able to direct us to a couple of shops next to the hotel. Due to the time we got in, none of the repair shops were open and I had to take the van to the repair shop first thing in the morning. As expected, the repairs took much longer than expected. The staff at Country Suites was extremely accommodating and allowed us to stay up until 4 PM in the room until they said they would have to charge us a 1/2 day or we could pay for a full day and spend one more night. In addition, they offered to shuttle me back to the auto repair shop when the van was fixed. It was very nice to be treated kindly when we were in a bad situation and really did not want to pay for an additional nights stay. The room was clean and nice. Nothing was broken and no funny smells. A+++ in my book.

“Perfect Night! (Romace Package)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 10, 2012

I purchased the Romance Package through this Hotel. It included a $50 Dinner voucher to The Melting Pot (just steps away from the hotel), a dozen handmade chocolates from a local candy store, and a nice bottle of champagne.Then of course one nights stay in a king jacuzzi suite. This was an anniversary gift to my husband and one of the best anniversaries we have EVER had!! The staff here was very friendly and had great communication with reserving our dinner reservations as soon as I booked. The hotel was very beautiful and clean. I had one of the best nights sleep I have had in a long time due to the wonderful king bed and soft plush pillows. We WILL stay here again. I highly recommend the Romance Package! It was money well spent!

Room Tip: Choose the Romance Package!
