The hotel is clean, comfortable and aimed at 20's to 30's age range. We loved the lobby and general decor. Without asking, after arriving back from... More

“Very nice and very modern”

Reviewed 11 May 2012

My wife and I recently stayed here and the modern feel is very nice. It has a nice casual common area near the front desk with a bar and several private seating areas. Also, they have a chef on staff to prepare made to order breakfast foods (an extremely nice touch). The rooms are hip and modern. Mr. Mina Banoub... More

“WOW! What a hotel”

Reviewed 1 May 2012

We stayed at Aloft in late April for just one night (en route from Florida to Ontario) but wish we'd had longer! The most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, wonderful staff who go out of their way to make sure your stay is enjoyable, fabulous food (limited selection but all delicious) and a great heated pool! We have four... More

“Very fun weekend at Aloft!”

Reviewed 19 April 2012

I found a great deal on this hotel online (40% off second night), and I had wanted to try out this hotel because of its contemporary design. My friend and I went to Charlotte for a Girls' Weekend. This place ended up being a perfect fit for us. We both loved the design of the hotel. Clean lines, modern look,... More
