Location

The Hilton Charlotte University Place
"The Hilton at Charlotte University Place is located at The Shoppes at University Place and offers a variety of diversions for a sunny afternoon. You can explore the walking trail that skirts the perimeter of a picturesque ten-acre lake, located at the center of the facility, or pass the time exploring a combination of unique, local specialty shops and well-known national retailers. After satisfying your shopper's cravings, rest under a patio umbrella and enjoy a glass of wine or an ice cream cone while you consider where to have lunch or dinner. The Shoppes offer a variety of restaurants from which to choose - Chinese, Mexican, Italian, sushi, seafood, snack foods, fast food - you name it. And after your meal, why not round out the evening and visit the movie theatre on site and take in the latest blockbuster?"
The room rate is $109.00 USD. Be sure to ask for the CAPPA room rate when reserving your room!
Area Information & Attractions

Our hotel is surrounded by The Shoppes at University Place, a large shopping complex offering more than 80 stores! Relax after a long day of socializing and learning with a pedicure or a quiet dinner with friends. There's even a lake - complete with swans! - for you to escape to.
Shopping aside, Charlotte is North Carolina's largest city (and the 19th largest in the country), so plenty of entertainment options are available to you. There's a reason it was chosen as one of the best places to live in 2008 by several publications, including CNNMoney.com! The Mint Museum of Art, Latta Plantation, Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens, and Concord Mills shopping mall are just few of the interesting attractions located within a few miles of the hotel. The Lowe's Motor Speedway is also nearby, so NASCAR fans should be sure to make a stop there after conference hours!
Policies
Mothers may bring quiet, breastfeeding babies less than three months of age. We ask that you bring a support person to watch the baby outside the conference area between feedings. Fussy or disruptive babies will be asked to leave the conference area as it is a learning environment.
