rendering of future Hampton Inn & Suites in downtown Greensboro

I must say I wasn't expecting the hotel to be this tall. I was thinking 4 stories max. Looks like its 7-stories This project is a done deal. CN Hotels purchased the site in December and recently applied for a building permit. The hotel will be built within the same block of the Carolina Theatre on Greene St just one block west of South Elm St. You can see the General Greene Statue in the traffic circle in the foreground.

 

Opening date is set for 1st quarter of 2017 , around the time of the opening of the Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts.

This looks like its right behind McCouls?

 

meaning this is taking the place of the parking right there on McGee

Nice! And yes, from what I can tell it's going to occupy the L-shaped parking lot around the Exchange building, but not including it, since they don't own it.

Plans for a fourth downtown hotel are underway. Not sure if the Hampton Inn and Suites flag has changed but Greensboro based CN Hotels had planned a Hampton Inn and Suites on the site. The company is currently building one in downtown Winston-Salem. 

If built, downtown Greensboro would then have a total of 6 hotels. 

Marriott Downtown
Biltmore Greensboro
Hyatt Place
Westin Greensboro
Aloft Greensboro
Hampton Inn & Suites.
