Hotels in Charlotte, United States

Named Charlotte in the eighteenth century in honour of King George III's wife, this North Carolina town is best known as one of the largest centres of finance in the United States.

Gold was initially the reason Charlotte evolved but when this dried up its chief export became cotton.

Places to visit while in Charlotte could include the Carowinds Theme Park, the Mint Museum as well as the Trolley and Air Museums. The best way to see the town is to book yourself onto one of the walking tours. If you find you have a surplus of energy left after all that walking, head to Catawba River boasting activities such as water skiing, fishing and tennis.
