Once the architectural muse for the Empire State Building, the historic R. J. Reynolds building is now home to The Kimpton Cardinal Hotel.

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.
