Hilton Garden Inn Raleigh/Crabtree Valley
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Worth booking for most visitors to Raleigh who have a car: it had the best guest score of the 10 hotels we compared and cost less than the city median. Skip it if you want to walk to sights, since the nearest one in our data is about 49 minutes away on foot.

This is our Best Value pick in Raleigh, a 3-star hotel at 3912 Arrow Drive. It suits travellers who drive, want a reliably clean room and care more about service than about a central address. Our data tags it as pet-friendly, which may help if you travel with an animal, though the policy and fees need checking.
It is a weaker match if you do not have a car and want to explore on foot. It is also not the cheapest option, so pure budget travellers should read on to our Budget pick.
Location and getting around
The North Carolina Museum of Art is about 3.9 km away, roughly 49 minutes on foot. Holy Name of Jesus Cathedral is about 6.4 km, around 80 minutes. WakeMed Soccer Park is about 9.2 km, roughly 115 minutes. These are straight-line estimates, and all three are far. Plan on driving, public transport or a taxi.
Free parking is listed, which makes driving the practical choice. Guests still rate the location well, with a score of 9.1.
What guests say
The overall score is 9.0 out of 10 from 265 reviews. That put it first on review score among the 10 properties we compared.
Cleanliness and staff carry most of the praise. Guests describe tidy, well-maintained rooms and bathrooms, and a friendly, polite team that helps when asked.
Breakfast is the soft spot. Guests call it tasty, but say some items are dry or that the choice lacks variety. A buffet breakfast is listed. Our data does not confirm whether it is included in every rate.
Price and how it compares with our other two picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults was €148.96 a night, about €298 for both nights. That was about 14% below the sample median of €172.26. These are reference prices, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, Best Western Plus Raleigh Crabtree Valley Hotel, was €104.14 a night with a score of 8.4. Our Luxury pick, The StateView Hotel, Autograph Collection, was €265.79 a night with a score of 8.7.
The case here is simple. You pay about €45 a night more than the Budget pick and get a clearly higher guest score. You pay about €117 a night less than the Luxury pick, and the guest score is still higher than theirs.
