The beautiful Hilton University Place Hotel!The Hilton University Place, the host hotel for this year's NWA Wrestling Legends Fanfest Weekend, is completely booked up.

If you're attending for the first time, you'll love your stay at the Hilton University Place. It's convenient, with easy access to Interstates 85, 485 and 77, and 15 minutes from Charlotte's Douglas International Airport.

Remember, Charlotte is the heart of stock car country (the hotel is just a couple miles down the road from Lowe's Motor Speedway and dozens of NASCAR race shops in the region,) and home to Paramount's Carowinds (the Carolinas' premier theme park and family entertainment destination, including Boomerang Bay, a 20-acre water park,) so why not make it a summer vacation and take in a little bit of everything?

Convention-goers will love the hotel's convenient location. Nestled alongside a picturesque lake and surrounded by distinctive specialty shops and restaurants, the Hilton University Place provides a peaceful lakeside setting just minutes from the hustle and bustle of downtown. For more information on the surrounding shops and restaurants, visit The Shoppes at University Place.

The Hilton University Place is a 393-guest room, full-service lakeside hotel, now offering complimentary wireless internet access in all guestrooms and public areas. All rooms feature coffee makers, hair dryers, irons and ironing boards, cable TV, dual-line telephones with voicemail. They also have executive rooms with in-room fax machines, private floor key access, upscale bottled waters and concierge lounge offering continental breakfast.

There will be so much going on at Fanfest, even if you're local you'll want to take advantage of this great rate at a great hotel so you don't miss a moment of the action throughout the weekend.
