Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel announces Nov. 1 opening

Kimpton to welcome guests to its first hotel in Queen City
Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants will officially bring boutique to Charlotte’s skyline when Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel, located at the corner of Third and Church Streets in uptown, opens its doors on Wednesday, Nov. 1.
Providing a modern spin on Southern hospitality, Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel is the company’s first boutique hotel in the Queen City.
From its three-story elegant glass lobby to the expansive views from its rooftop lounge and event space, the 18-story Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel marries the sophistication of the New South with the authentic service that has made Kimpton beloved among travelers and locals. Set in the midst of a vibrant activity center anchored by Romare Bearden Park and BB&T Ballpark, the boutique hotel presents a fluid, graceful façade evoking the contours of the 5.4-acre urban park.
Connected to the new 300 South Tryon office tower, the hotel’s 217 rooms – including 14 suites and a 1,300-square-foot presidential suite – offer views of Romare Bearden Park or uptown Charlotte. Kimpton Tryon Park’s lobby, with eye-catching crystal chandeliers and a staircase that allows guests different views of the park as they ascend upward, serves as a dynamic introduction to a new kind of luxury hotel experience in Charlotte underscored by Kimpton’s genuine, personalized customer care.
Robert Hannigan, general manager of Kimpton Tryon Park Hotel, said: “Kimpton Tryon Park will deliver the unique design, unrivaled service and top-flight amenities our company is known for, but with a distinct local flavor. We look forward to opening our doors and sharing Kimpton’s heartfelt hospitality with our guests in Charlotte.”
On its third floor, Kimpton Tryon Park features more than 9,300 square feet of flexible meeting and event space, with names for each meeting room inspired by the works of Romare Bearden, the Charlotte-born artist for whom the public park was named. The crown jewel of the hotel’s meeting spaces is its 4,000-square-foot Rhapsody Ballroom, which features 14-foot ceilings and jewel-like lighting elements that create an ideal setting for weddings and social events. The Berkeley Green Room offers an elegant setting for brides and wedding parties preparing for the ceremony or for smaller meetings and events, while the 800-square-foot Iliad Board Room includes a stately conference table with technology hubs and handsome ergonomic chairs, all overlooking Romare Bearden Park.
For an indoor-outdoor event space, the hotel’s nearly 2,000-square-foot rooftop event lawn adjacent to the 19th floor Merchant & Trade rooftop lounge boasts stunning views, a retractable rooftop and a video wall that can be used for ambiance, art, entertainment or sports viewing.
All catering for meetings is provided by Angeline’s, an Italian-inspired modern American restaurant adjacent to the hotel. With a menu created by executive chef Robert Hoffman, Angeline’s serves seasonally driven, inventive cuisine with simple, flavorful and inspired compositions.
Guest amenities at Kimpton Tryon Park include all of Kimpton’s signature offerings, such as luxurious Atelier Bloem bath amenities; its “Forgot It? We Got It!” menu of travel and vacation essentials; a thoughtful mini bar with a hint of local flair; free Wi-Fi for Kimpton Karma Rewards members; complimentary morning coffee and tea service in the living room; hosted nightly social hour; and health-minded wellness options, such as complimentary custom PUBLIC bike rentals and in-room Gaiam yoga mats. Unique to Kimpton Tryon Park, the fourth floor fitness center also features a connected outdoor yoga deck large enough for a 25-person class. As with all Kimpton properties, Kimpton Tryon Park is pet-friendly, welcoming all four-legged guests and providing them with their own services and amenities upon registration at no extra cost and with no breed or size restrictions.
