Customer Reviews
I would not stay at this hotel again. The rooms were okay/clean, but the water in the hotel never got hot. Luke warm showers! The elevators all rattle like they are about to break and you are going to plunge to your death. I picked this because the game room looked fun but it was relatively small compared to the pictures and there was no availability. Other have noted it is frequently broken—so don’t get sucked in. The biggest issue is that their food service is not efficient/properly integrated. Their site boasts about the Katherine, but they don’t tell you that hotel guests are not given any priority and that it is a separate entity. We were not able to get a table, but thankfully were able to eat in the bar as we got there relatively early. Others were not as lucky. They offer the abi
Positive: The pet policy (no breed/weight limits, no deposit) brought us in to the Kimpton brand, but it's also an amazing stay. The beds are supremely comfortable, the rooms are quiet, and the staff attentive. This location has a free parking garage nearby, too. Negative: Took me a few stays before I discovered the game room - if you have kids, or you're a kid at heart, check it out. There are two bowling lanes (if you're a spinner, know they're not oiled), a half basketball court, pool table, shuffleboard, and more.
Overall, I found my experience to be very positive, as the rooms were spacious, the staff was friendly, and the breakfast was great. This hotel offered everything needed for a business trip.||Took one star off because of the quality of the bedding and the bathrobe provided. They felt noticeably substandard and seemed out of place in an otherwise high-quality hotel environment.
This was my second time staying at the Kimpton Cardinal. Last time was for work, this time was with family for a quick weekend visit to the area. Both visits were outstanding. The building is the old RJ Reynolds corporate office. It has an amazing art deco vibe and turns out it was the precursor to the Empire State Building. You can definitely sense it. The lobby has a large sitting area where they had a wine social from 5-6pm. The other side of the first floor has a bar and restaurant. The food at dinner and breakfast was excellent, and the service was top notch. Taylor, Kristina, Gregory and everyone else was really attentive and friendly. The menu was a bit more fancy than my preference, but I enjoyed an arugula salad at dinner and a veggie quiche for breakfast. My family got a 1 bed
My fiancée and I are getting married in downtown Winston-Salem this year and wanted to stay at the Kimpton Cardinal Hotel for our wedding night. We literally live one block away and only needed one night. Because our wedding falls during High Point Furniture Market, they told us we must book a four-night minimum stay just to stay one night. When we first called, they told us to call back in February because the policy might change. We waited and called again in March… and were told the exact same thing. To make things worse, when we tried explaining the situation, the employee hung up on us. It’s disappointing that a hotel in the heart of Winston-Salem won’t accommodate something as simple as a local couple trying to book one night for their wedding. During High Point Market it’s clear
