The March edition of Raleigh Magazine highlights the most recent boutique hotels in Raleigh. The article mentions three out of five Maurer projects that have opened since 2015, or will open later this year. Raleigh follows Durham’s lead in the introduction of boutique hotels to the Triangle area. The Durham Hotel, also a Maurer Architecture project, played a part in inspiring this growth trend of boutique hotels, which is exemplified through its continued success.
Five years ago, Raleigh’s hotel scene was limited to chains, with standard Hiltons, Marriotts and Comfort Inns leaving little to the imaginations of visitors passing through.

The Bull City led the way with Unscripted Hotel, 21c Museum Hotel and The Durham Hotel. But Raleigh wasn’t far behind; in 2018, Guest House opened downtown, with many more to follow, including the recently opened Longleaf Hotel replacing a Days Inn that had, well, seen better days.
