Property Description
Once the architectural muse for the Empire State Building, the historic R.J. Reynolds building is now home to The Kimpton Cardinal Hotel. We’ve enjoyed mixing Southern manners and modern flair, with a little mischief thrown in. Step through our magnificent Art Deco entryway into a lavish social living room or meet us on the patio for Chef's Daily Oysters. Step outside to explore downtown Winston-Salem and her thriving art, music and foodie scene.

I decided to spend a little more for an overnight stay in Winston-Salem by selecting this Kimpton Property downtown. I typically expect over the top quality at Kimpton Properties. NOT THIS TIME. NO HOT WATER IN MY ROOM. After informing staff, I was told that the engineers checked the boiler and it was heating. However, it wasn’t in my room. Luke warm at best and more often cold. The only way the water would get warm was to run the shower and sink on full blast hot at the same time. UNACCEPTABLE KIMPTON. You failed a basic guest amenity - Hot Water!! Not even a mention about my experience at checkout despite the fact I had several contacts with the front desk staff. Buyers beware! Apparently the standard Kimpton brand quality does not apply to the Cardinal Kimpton in Winston-Salem. Disappointing!!

Another great stay! This is our third time at the hotel and we will certainly be back! Rooms are spacious and clean, staff is friendly and attentive, and onsite restaurant is great!! Also love the activity space downstairs - the bowling and basketball were a hit with our family!!

I had an incredible meal here tonight and because the steamy mussels reminded me of my sauna loving man’s son, K, I shall write this review from the K perspective: Tonight I went on a mission. It was mollusks vs me. Unfortunately due to the agile nature of their intuitive little foot, I was not able to complete my feast. Mollusks have defeated me in the art of course combat. Now, K, back to me…. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal! It was absolutely beautiful. The plating was perfect, the taste was incredible, and yes…I was too full to finish. I would absolutely recommend coming to this restaurant. It is really a culinary masterpiece! Amen for a chef who takes the time to make something so perfectly plated.

Had trouble finding the Hotel. Poor small signage and bell hops looked like part of downtown crowd and couldn’t tell they were bell hops
