Celebrate Above the City
Take your celebration to the top of the tower in the Fayetteville Room, where 20th-floor views stretch across Raleigh. Gather for dinner upstairs, welcome a larger crowd in our lobby-level spaces, then keep the celebration going with guest rooms just an elevator ride away.
The Occasions
Nights Worth Dressing Up
Some nights call for a bigger celebration. Bring your favorite people together in the round tower and make an occasion of it. We’ll help you find the space that fits the moment.
The Big Day
Weddings & Receptions
Celebrate from ceremony through reception in the round tower. The Fayetteville Room brings the occasion to the 20th floor, and on-site guest rooms make it easy for everyone to stay close to the celebration.
Black Tie & Beyond
Galas & Fundraisers
Give your gala a setting that feels worthy of the occasion. Welcome guests on the 20th floor, then bring everyone together in the Fayetteville Room for dinner and the evening’s program.
Milestones
Birthdays & Anniversaries
