CANDLEWOOD SUITES - CHARLOTTE - ARROWOOD BY IHG, Charlotte

The hotel sits off a major highway, providing easy car access to Charlotte city centre (roughly 20 minutes away), Billy Graham Library (8 km), and Southpark Mall (10 km). Several fast-food restaurants and a Starbucks are within walking distance. The area is well-served for drivers; the property is also about 16 km from Bank of America Stadium and Spectrum Center. No airport shuttle is available, so plan for a taxi or rideshare for air travel. Free private parking on site removes the need for street parking or fees.

Suites are available with 1, 2, or 3 beds, and some offer a separate bedroom with a door for added privacy. Each room includes a large-screen TV, desk, seating area, and air conditioning. The kitchenette comes with a full-size refrigerator, microwave, stovetop, cookware, and utensils - ideal for longer stays. Note that the primary air conditioning unit may be in the living room, so bedrooms can feel warmer; this is worth considering for hot-weather visits. Cleanliness can vary between rooms, and first-floor rooms may experience more noise from hallways and foot traffic above. Upper-floor rooms are generally quieter. Rooms have no balcony.

The hotel does not have a restaurant or bar. Each suite is equipped with a full kitchenette (fridge, microwave, stovetop, cookware) so guests can prepare their own meals. A minimarket on site sells snacks and drinks. Fast-food choices such as Jack in the Box and Starbucks are within 0.5 km, and several other restaurants are within walking distance. Breakfast options are not consistently available; check your booking details if you require an on-site breakfast.

The outdoor swimming pool operates seasonally and features a shallow end and sun loungers for relaxation. The fitness centre is available free of charge. No spa is on site. Since the pool is seasonal and may be closed for maintenance or the off-season, confirm its availability before booking if swimming is a key part of your stay. Board games and a shared lounge/TV area provide indoor leisure options.

Free WiFi is available throughout the property. Free private parking is on site with no reservation needed; accessible parking is also provided. The 24-hour front desk offers express check-in/out, and a business centre with fax/photocopying (fee) and dry cleaning (fee) is available. The property is wheelchair accessible, with features including a lower bathroom sink, raised toilet, and braille signage. Pets are allowed with applicable charges.
