It was my first time staying in the Raleigh North Hills area, and I had a lovely stay. I stayed at the Marriott's Renaissance Raleigh North Hill Hotel. It was perfect for my stay, and I highly recommend it to my travel clients. The hotel, located in an upscale shopping area, offers several restaurants and shops within walking distance of the hotel. My favorites on this visit were Bar Taco ( extended hours, quick service), Firebirds (extended hours, terrific menu options), and Coquette Brasserie ( authentic French cuisine). All three restaurants delivered outstanding customer service. The Renaissance offers ample above and below complimentary parking and valet parking for a fee.
