Charlotte · Uptown
Furnished apartments for your conference — a short walk to the show floor, a full kitchen for a multi-day stay, and room to actually work in the evening. When the room block sells out or surge-prices, an Uptown apartment is the better multi-night value: more space than a hotel room, in-unit laundry, included parking, and a rate that amortizes over a 3–7 night stay.
How close you'll be
Every Trifecta apartment sits inside walkable Uptown, so you walk to the event and walk home — no event-day parking, no rideshare surge, no crawl out of the deck.

Where you'll stay
Real photos and live availability from the buildings we own and operate. Sorted by how close you'll be to the convention center.
2nd Ward · 0.5 mi
Same 2nd Ward as the Convention Center and right by the Brooklyn Village Blue Line station that abuts the venue — the easiest walk to the show floor, with 2-bedroom units that sleep a whole project team.
3rd Ward · 0.65 mi
A comfortable walk across Uptown from 3rd Ward, or a few-minute rideshare to the halls — with free resident parking so you skip the event decks.
4th Ward · 0.85 mi
High-floor lofts with skyline views in leafy 4th Ward — a longer cross-Uptown walk, or a quick Gold Line / rideshare hop to the south-side show floor.
4th Ward · Gateway District · 1.0 mi
Far-west Gateway District — separated from 2nd Ward by the rail yard, so it is best reached by the Gold Line streetcar (a stop is right outside) or a short rideshare into Uptown.
Or ride the Gold Line streetcar from Irwin Ave into Uptown

What guests say
40 guest reviews mention the stadium, a game, or a show — here are a few, unedited.
“Weekend trip for a dance convention. The property was great. We will stay there again when we are in Charlotte.”
“Perfect location!! especially if you’re in town for a conference. The place was clean and had all the essentials, which made the stay super easy. Management was responsive and quick to communicate, which I really appreciated. The cute balcony overlooking the pool was a nice bonus. Overall, a great and convenient stay.”
“Went to Charlotte for a work conference and the apartment was a nice place to relax between all the work!”
“Very close (walkable) to the convention center - great for work travel.”
“We enjoyed our stay here for a conference. It was about a 10 minute walk to the convention center which was very convenient. Beautiful and clean space!”
“I was in Charlotte for a conference. The space and location were fantastic. Highly recomended for a business or personal trip. Nice to have secure parking onsite as well.”

Apartment vs hotel
Feed a group before the game and skip the $18 stadium hot dog. Cookware, dishwasher, full-size fridge — all included.
A 2-bedroom sleeps six — one apartment instead of three hotel rooms, with a living room to actually hang out in.
Pack light for a multi-night run of shows or a season of home games. Washer and dryer in every unit.
For two nights or more, a furnished apartment usually beats a comparable Uptown hotel — and direct booking drops the 15–20% OTA service fee entirely.
The stadium sells no general parking and decks run $20–$60+. Stay within walking distance and skip the cost and the post-event traffic.
We own and operate every apartment. Book direct and you reach the people who run the building, instantly confirmed.
Getting around
The Convention Center sits in Uptown’s walkable 2nd Ward, connected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame and steps from the Spectrum Center, the EpiCentre, and 200+ restaurants. Leave the car parked — walk to the show floor, then walk to dinner and drinks after the last session.
The 3rd St/Convention Center station is directly across the street and the Brooklyn Village station abuts the building — trains run roughly every 7.5 minutes at peak.
Runs east–west across Uptown, with a stop right outside Centric Gateway in the Gateway District — the easy way in from the west side.
About 8 miles / a 15–20 minute drive; the CATS Sprinter (Route 5) connects CLT to Uptown in ~27 minutes for a few dollars.
Uptown is flat, gridded, and dense — leave the car parked and walk to the show floor, then to dinner and drinks after the last session.
Make a weekend of it
Pair the event with the best of Uptown and South End — all walkable or one Blue Line stop away.
Dean's Italian Steakhouse, Dogwood Southern Table, Fin & Fino, and dozens more within a 5–12 minute walk — easy client dinners or a team night out.
Bars, live music, bowling, and a cinema right by the venue — the natural after-session move with colleagues.
The Hall of Fame is attached to the Convention Center; the Spectrum Center and the Levine Center for the Arts museums are steps away for downtime.
Local vendors, Not Just Coffee, and quick bites — a good call for breakfast or between sessions.
Good to know
Savoy is the closest — same 2nd Ward as the venue, about an 8–10 minute walk to the show floor. Circa Uptown is 12–15 minutes, The VUE on 5th is 16–20, and Centric Gateway is an 18–25 minute walk or a quick Gold Line streetcar / rideshare from the Gateway District. Every building is in walkable Uptown; times are approximate and vary by exact unit.
Yes — that is exactly the fit. The connected Westin and nearby Uptown hotel blocks routinely sell out or surge-price during peak conventions, with hard cut-off dates. A furnished apartment is the better multi-night fallback: more space, a full kitchen and in-unit laundry, and a rate that amortizes well over a 3–7 night stay.
From most buildings, yes. The Convention Center is in walkable 2nd Ward with the Blue Line directly across the street, so you can leave the car parked and walk to the halls — then walk to dinner afterward. From the far-west Gateway building, the Gold Line streetcar runs straight in.
Absolutely. Exhibitors and installers often need more nights than the show itself for setup and teardown — a full week in one unit beats a string of hotel nights. Multi-bedroom apartments (a 2-bedroom at Savoy sleeps six) let a project team or consulting crew share one unit instead of separate hotel rooms, with a kitchen and workspace for evening calls.
The Convention Center decks and surrounding 2nd Ward lots surge on event days, and registration rarely includes parking. Most Trifecta buildings include resident or secured parking, so you park once for the whole stay instead of paying daily event-deck rates — and from most buildings you can just walk.
Yes. Charlotte Douglas (CLT) is about a 15–20 minute drive, and the CATS Sprinter (Route 5) connects the airport to Uptown in roughly 27 minutes for a few dollars. Once you are here, the Blue Line, Gold Line streetcar, and a walkable core make it a genuinely car-free conference trip.
