Once again the official hotel for Animazement is the Raleigh Marriott® City Center. Located directly across Fayetteville St. from the Raleigh Convention Center (RCC), the Marriott is seconds away from all of the Animazement festivities via underground access.

The other primary hotel for Animazement is the Sheraton Raleigh Hotel which is located near the Raleigh Convention Center just a few steps away from all of the Animazement festivities! It’s next door to the Marriott and just about as convenient.

Our additional overflow hotel for Animazement is the Residence Inn Raleigh Downtown which is located beside the Raleigh Convention Center. It is also just a few steps away from all of the Animazement festivities!

Opened in October 2024, this new hotel is conveniently located about 1 mile away from the Raleigh convention center.

Located in the brand-new mixed use development, Seaboard Station, this hotel is one of the stops on the R Line bus that makes continuous loop around the downtown area for ease of access!

In addition to the Primary hotels located adjacent to the Raleigh Convention Center (RCC), Animazement has arranged special hotel rates at hotels which are further away from the RCC. Please see the brief description for each of these hotels below followed by details for each.
