Accessible accommodations Raleigh, NC

[justrollin]

I’m going to be visiting Raleigh North Carolina in a couple months. Can anyone recommend any accessible accommodations and/ or things to do in the area?

Try Google, Travelocity, Trip Advisor, etc.

Thanks Braced4Impact! I did find some on google. Just wanted to see if anyone on here have been there and could recommend any places to stay or visit.

There’s an art museum, and some great restaurants. On weekends sometimes live music inside bars and outside, but not sure what everything is going on with coronavirus now. If you like being around more weird people go to the Ugly Monkey. If you prefer a more bougie scene with wide variety of draft beer, go right across the street to Flying Saucer. Check out downtown, and enjoy the City of Oaks!

And wear your fucking mask. And be safe. And actually, don’t go to the bars I mentioned. Maybe just do the art museum and stay outside. And don’t go to the Hilton because their Starbucks can only be accessed at the bottom of some stairs, which really pissed me off. Like braced said, just Google. That how I find everything when I go to a new city.

I had luck with the Marriott brand in that area (this includes Courtyard, Residence Inn, etc.). But that was 5 years ago, the hotels are pushing to high beds with a platform that doesn't have space underneath for a lift. Call ahead and ask to make sure. Sorry, I don't recall specifically where I stayed.

Hilton Garden Inns in Durham (near Duke) and near Crab Tree are good if you need a roll in shower. The Durham Hotel downtown is nice, rooms are tight though.

Thanks for the info! I’m definitely gonna check out the museum and a bunch of restaurants. There is a Flying Saucer in South Carolina I went to a few years ago. Very cool place. Who can resist going to a place called the Ugly Monkey? LOL! Good heads up on the Hilton. That shit makes me crazy!!! I’ll check out the Marriott. All hotels seem to be going to the platform beds. It’s so aggravating. I’m going to visit people down there. I can call the hotel and have them go look at the room to be sure it’s fully accessible. I hadn’t looked at any outside Raleigh. I definitely need the roll in show. I’ll look into the Hilton Garden Inn too. Thanks again all!
