aloft is ultra contemporary - very IKEA. Welcomed with smiles and welcomes. I got a great rate for one night as we were in town to visit the NASCAR Hall of Fame in conjunction with the Coca Cola 600. Everyone was accomodating, pleasant and knowlegeable. There are so many choices for food in the EpiCentre complex. Room was fine, Chelsea... More

Very nice business class hotel in a spectacular location. Has a very chic, "hip", feel....room was small, but nicely appointed. The lobby is hard to find...you have to take an elevator from the ground floor. Lap pool is small, but very pleasant. Hotel is at the Epicenter, which lives up to its name. Plenty of restaurants. Room was quiet and... More

Stayed at the Aloft hotel recently after a friend's recommendation. The location is very convenient to the NBA Bobcat's arena, however, it is overpriced, must pay $20 bucks a day for parking at the hotel although the rooms are $239 and up! Also the hotel smells like "cat urine!" Will never stay here again!

Not easy to find since we did not see any obvious signs indicating its location, had to ask a taxi driver. They have valet parking, for a fee of course, or several parking garages nearby. The lobby is located on the 5th floor of the EpiCentre. The staff were courteous friendly and helpful.There scores of restaurants and shops nearby; location... More

I chose this hotel because we were going to a basketball game at the Time Warner Center and because I am a Starwood Preferred. We drove around in the downtown area for about 20 minutes looking for the hotel with directions. It is actually on the corner of 4th and College, not on East Trade as their address states. The...

First, the staff were SUPER nice. However... You couldn't find the hotel as they had no external sign, the lobby has a pool table next to the registration desk which makes it loud. Our room on the 15th floor was not clean, but they moved us to another room, which was better. Rooms are small, but ok. Carpets dirty and... More

This hotel was a fresh approach to hotel accomodations...trendy set up, great design elements, awesome location in the heart of the nightlife. Having said that, it was noisy, elevators were slow or out of order, young staff but friendly and small rooms with zero space to store stuff if you are there for more than 3 nights. Great for a...

Dear ASUfromTO, Thank you for sharing your candid comments. I'm glad to read that overall you left with a favorable experience. I understand that the "center-of-it-all" location can result in some noise and your tip to future guests to request a room on the "quieter" side is a good one. Please accept my apology for any of the inconveniences you... More

This hotel is in a great location. Super clean. Trendy. In the middle of everything. Its the perfect place for business people, or people who want to party and crash downtown. I can't think of as many cons as pros, but it just wasn't my style. My room was paid by a third party, but I don't think I would... More

Location is great if you are interested in a fun nightlife. There are bars, restaurants and a theatre literally right out the front door. This does however lead to noisey nights. Service is great.

Stayed here recently and discovered upon walking out of the hotel you're right in the middle of a mini shopping mall with a movie theater, bowling alley and restaurants. Great location, however we both felt a tad unsafe at night time outside the hotel. The rooms are typical aloft, lobby with a pool table and snacks for purchase. Parking is... More
