Courtyard by Marriott Charlotte Northlake

Relaxed Comfort Just North of the Charlotte Music Scene

Modern and welcoming, the Courtyard by Marriott Charlotte Northlake is a stylish spot tucked away in a quieter part of Charlotte, just a short drive from the city’s top concert venues. With a seasonal outdoor pool, on-site restaurant and bar, and free WiFi throughout, it’s a comfortable and convenient base for concert-goers looking to balance excitement with rest.

This 2-star hotel offers friendly service and smart amenities like a fitness center, business center, and sun terrace—all within easy reach of hotspots like Discovery Place Kids and the Shoppes at University Place.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel hits the sweet spot for music fans who want to be close—but not too close—to the action. It’s less than 20 minutes from many major Charlotte venues, yet far enough to enjoy a quieter post-show wind-down. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins a breeze, and free parking is a bonus for those driving in for the night. Public transport options are available, though having a car may be more convenient for late-night returns.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a chill hangout spot after a show
• Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list performance
• Couples making a romantic concert weekend getaway
• Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space
• Budget-conscious music fans who still want comfort and amenities

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up American fare, and there's a bar for pre- or post-show drinks. While there’s no official 24/7 room service, the hotel’s lobby market offers quick snacks any time of day or night. Breakfast is available and served à la carte—perfect for those sleeping in after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about relaxation than revelry, you're just a short drive from Charlotte's buzzing nightlife. Prefer a low-key vibe? Grab a local craft drink at the hotel bar or unwind on the sun terrace with friends.

What People Say

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that it's not walkable to downtown venues, so having a car or using rideshare is a must. Others wish for more variety in the on-site dining, especially for late-night cravings.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a Charlotte concert and looking for a peaceful, affordable stay with solid amenities, Courtyard by Marriott Charlotte Northlake checks all the right boxes.
