It looks like we’ll have to wait a little longer for the 229-room Renaissance Hotel at North Hills to be finished. Originally scheduled to open in December, it likely will be opening sometime in January now.
I called them a few days ago to see if there would be a room available for my grandparents, who are coming into town for Christmas next week. It was a little strange that the lady on the phone couldn’t tell me if the hotel was open or not without me giving her the dates they’d be staying there. She ultimately told me the hotel wouldn’t be open in December, but it would start accepting reservations on the 26th. But she couldn’t tell me when the exact opening would be in January.
Has anyone else heard when the Renaissance Hotel will definitely open? Will you recommend that your friends and family from out of town stay there when it opens?

Yesterday was the first day of the Renaissance Raleigh Hotel’s three day-job fair. The hotel is looking to hire up to 200 employees in time for its opening in mid-December. Construction has been steadily moving along on the 10-story, 229-room hotel, which is a joint venture between Kane Realty Corporation and Raleigh-based Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company.
Almost 500 people applied for positions yesterday, but you can still check out the job fair today from 8am - 5pm or Saturday, November 1st from 8am - 12pm. Job opportunities range from front-desk level to management and will pay between $8-to-$10 per hour - with some paying up to $14 an hour. While this is still a tough economy to find work in, it’s nice to know that there are opportunities available in select places.

Yesterday Kane Realty announced a partnership with Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company to build a Hyatt Summerfield Suites hotel to the new part of the development at North Hills. When this is complete in 2010 (expected) North Hills will have two very nice hotels (The Renaissance is scheduled to open in the Fall this year), and be a great place for business travelers to stay and explore.
The Hyatt Summerfield Suites Hotel at North Hills will have 140 rooms spread out over seven stories and 100,000 square feet. Other details and features include:
- full kitchens
- living area with a 32 inch flat screen TV
- separate bedroom
- complimentary full breakfasts
- free high-speed internet access
- 24-hour Guest Market with snacks and quick eats
- interior access to a fitness center and pool
- evening socials - Monday through Thursday.
Has anyone ever stayed in a Hyatt Summerfield Suites before? What did you think? And what exactly are the evening socials (and are they fun)?
