Charlotte Convention Center

Although this is a large convention center it was easy to get around. Very convenient to restaurants, hotels and restaurants.

First time visiting this convention center. Easy to get to from the highway, and several parking garages in the area make it an easy spot to get to for events. It appeared the local train also had a stop at the convention center as wellThe space is large, a bit chaotically laid out though. Bathrooms and all areas were well maintained and kept clean. Security was friendly and helpful with pointing people in the right direction as far as getting in and out of the building. There is a Starbucks and a few food options in side. There is also concession stands with surprisingly reasonably priced burgers and sandwiches.There are many hotels and restaurants within walking distance which helps make things convenient for people in town for several days. I'd attend more events here

Do Not Hold Your Meeting Here!! The Crown Ballroom is freezing and constantly smells like cigarette smoke. All the Convention Center employees take their smoke breaks in the stairwells behind the Crown Ballroom. Additionally the set up crew will remove your cable ramps so the can run tables right over you fiber optic cables. All the attendees are bundled up in their winter coats, hats and gloves because it is freezing. It took 3 days to get a house engineer to come to the room in order to gain control of the house lights. When you want security, you cannot use the house phones because they are connected to NOTHING! I will also add that what doors to the center were open when was not consistent. I never entered the building the same way twice.

I'm spending the day at the Charlotte Convention Center for the Spirit of Hope cheer competition. Teams from all over come to this event to compete. This event has been named in honor of a young cheerleader named Hope who was diagnosed with cancer, but in her fight she encouraged other athletes to always press on and never give up hope. The athletes are super excited to come together for this competition, not only to compete but to learn a lesson in humility, and in the spirit of young Hope's birthday to "March fourth" in a positive spirit.

The layout of this convention center is a bit confusing but the signage helps. Otherwise, this venue is very clean and spacious. They also have really great staff and delicious food options here.

What an experience! Whoever designed this building had fun! One elevator took you to one side, then had to figure out which other one took you to the other side. One escalator took you here, a different one took you there! After the 2nd day we thought we had it figured out, but NOPE! Day 1 my daughter twisted her ankle on a chair and grinned and bared it until day 3 when we finally had to have a medic look at it. Dixie from Sports med at Atrium was amazing! Wheeled her into our next to last seminar and told her to stay off it. (We refused transport) I knocked a star off due to the crazy heat, we saw the thermostat at one point stating it was 74° inside. There was also not nearly enough seating, we sat on the floor many times to eat lunches due to this. Not fun

Its a convention center... so it's hard to love it or hate it. I was there before 7am and interacted with a security guard who was friendly. Everything seemed to be clean. There were hand-sani stations around which is a nice feature in today's environment. I had a catered lunch and the food and staff were fine. No issues, but the parking is too expensive. That's life, eh?

I've been to this location three times now and I've enjoyed it every time. From the location, to the size, and the amenities. This location is across the street from the blue line station. This was my preferred mode of travel. No worries about parking, traffic, or parking fees. The convention center is huge and provides plenty of room for any need you may have big or small.

Great location in Uptown Charlotte with hotels and parking nearby. But for me, I like it because it's super accessible by Light Rail with a stop right next door! There are restaurants nearby, too.It's a very large facility on multiple floors with lots of space. Restrooms abound and they were clean. There was a wifi signal that I was able to connect to, but I don't know if that's always online.I was here for the Lego Brick Fest. Of course, there are lots of other events going on, too!

I was at the Charlotte Convention Center to attend an event that was hosted by the local Mental Health Of America of the Central Carolinas. It was an EARLY event, as it started promptly at 730am. Breakfast was served that consisted of a plate of an assortment of breakfast pastries & a coffee cup full of various fruit that served as an "appetizer" before the main breakfast dish was brought out. Drink options were water and orange juice. The servers asked if you wanted coffee upon being seated. The reason I'm giving this review 3 stars is because I had a higher expectation for the food. I'm typically impressed when I go to convention centers or hotels. It could be because majority of the time I eat either lunch or dinner. The chicken sausage was pretty good and I appreciated the non beef and non pork option. The Roma tomato: I could have done without. Maybe it's a personal preference, but I enjoy them cold and hard. You could tell this was cooked or warmed up or whatever, but it wasn't seasoned and it was soft. The spinach quiche didn't taste like anything spectacular. That too tasted as if it were void of seasoning. The potatoes were regular as well. The service provided was great though. They cleared the tables quickly and without much disturbance and were very efficient with ensuring those at my table kept their cups full of coffee.
