Rocky Mount is an ideal place for travelers to recoup and reenergize after exhaustive journeys on I-95 and U.S. 64.
With hotels lining exits and ranging from 4-star to boutique to tiny house living, travelers have a plethora of choices of lodging in the Rocky Mount area.
Homewood Suits by Hilton, a 4-star hotel, offers a wide range of amenities to satisfy every need with pet-friendly rooms, free breakfast, outdoor pool and fitness center.
Traveler Catrina Vitez said she was particularly pleased with her stay there. "The front desk and hospitality staff (breakfast staff) were so welcoming and friendly,” she said. “They greeted us, ensured we
had everything we needed, and went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful experience. The rooms were spotless and roomy. We will definitely be back next time we are driving through. Thank you again for making my family and I feel welcome and part of the Homewood Suite family."
Homewood Suites by Hilton is located just off U.S. 64.
Country Inn & Suites by Raddison, a 3-star hotel, is full of amenities that will ensure your stay is comfortable, including petfriendly rooms, free continental breakfast, a fitness center and indoor pool. "There is a hot breakfast every morning and it’s good. I would for sure stay again,” traveler Chelsea Allen said. “The staff is so incredibly nice and helpful and even showed my 9-year-old son where the cookies and hot coco were in the lobby when we checked in. I’d honestly say this is one of the best experiences in a hotel I’ve had in a very long time. The rooms are super clean and the bed was so comfortable I almost didn’t wake up on time the next day.”
Tru by Hilton is a boutique-style hotel that offers free breakfast, pool, a fitness center and is also pet-friendly. The hotel is off of U.S. -64 and three miles from Rocky Mount Mills.
Visitor Raeann Stratton said the rooms are "super clean, beds extremely comfortable.”
“It's good quality and definitely better than the small, generic ones you find at most hotels (or) motels,” Stratton said. “We would definitely stay again if we ever find ourselves back in Rocky Mount."
