We’ve chosen Umstead Hotel and Spa for a pampering celebration of our anniversary. It was a great experience! Beautiful clean rooms and hotel ambiance, relaxing SPA with all possible amenities, amazing couple massage session and delicious dinner. Hotel stuff made our celebration special with the complementary treats and a champagne in our room. We definitely will be looking forward to come back!
Absolutely beautiful experience! Thank you! 💎
Horrendous customer service. Cancelled the spa appointments we had made months in advance for our anniversary with less than an hours notice and provided absolutely no alternatives or compensation. You get better service at a midrange Marriott. Could not get us into our room early. Made absolutely no effort to fix the situation they created. 0/10 recommend.
