CHARLOTTE, N.C. – In celebration of its 17th anniversary, The Ballantyne, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Charlotte unveils a multi-million-dollar makeover, encompassing newly designed guest rooms and public spaces. Designed by BLUR Workshop, the transformation pays homage to North Carolina's rich history.

From the moment of arrival, guests will feel a sense of warm hospitality. The stunning lobby envelops guests in a calm, welcoming environment, featuring a neutral palette of white, gold and grey, with hand-painted gold accents inspired by North Carolina's legacy as being the first state in the country where gold was found.

Named after a unit of gold currency during James VI of Scotland's reign, The Ryal is a vibrant gathering place that can be enjoyed as a lively bar in the afternoons and evenings. The Ryal features plush pocket seating and a glass balcony showcasing picturesque views of the lush grounds and superior golf course.

The Ballantyne also launches an exclusive partnership with Rare Tea Company of London. Rare Tea Company will be the official tea featured in the hotel's Tea Program, including afternoon tea service; handcrafted tea cocktails; select desserts including tea; and The Spa will feature the teas as part of specialty treatment rituals and in retail.

The Spa at Ballantyne's new color palette features warm neutrals and soft powder blues, inviting guests to escape the everyday.
