Beautiful overall but lacked in comfort with broken AC and hard beds.
Pros:

Location was amazing for what we came for. The hotel is beautiful when you walk in. Maintenance man we met was very nice. The restaurant looked nice but we didn’t try it. Parking deck being attached to the hotel is wonderful.

Cons:

They didn’t have my reservation. Changed my room type which was okay I guess. The pool was like a sauna and it was 90 degrees outside. Couldn’t swim. The rooms AC was broken and they couldn’t move our room so we were given box fans for the duration of our stay. The forced “incidental” fee just to force spending at the hotel is weird. Beds were kinda hard so didn’t get a great nights sleep.

Top Notch Valet and Service
Pros:

I have stayed at the Raleigh Marriott probably 75 times but all pre-Covid. Found my way back finally for work and had a great experience as always - nothings changed here in all the right ways. Terrill and another Valet with a company called PMC was there to kindly welcome me - took quick care of getting me inside and just the best service. Room wasn’t ready but I was early - sat at the bar to grab lunch and Chris served me. Super nice - right amount of kind conversation and quick to help. Always great being here!

Excellent stay
Pros:

I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but the valet team at the Marriott Raleigh truly earned one. Robert, Luc, and Gabe went above and beyond with their friendliness and professionalism from the moment we arrived for our Conference in April.

I have to give a special mention to Gabe - when I found out he's still in high school, I was genuinely blown away. He carried himself with more poise and professionalism than many seasoned adults I've encountered in hospitality. He was attentive, warm, hard-working and made us feel genuinely welcomed and safe.

All three of these young men are a huge asset to the valet team and honestly a credit to the Marriott Raleigh as a whole. They are exactly the kind of staff that turns a good stay into a great one.
