RALEIGH, N.C. – Located in Raleigh’s cultural epicenter, The Casso, Raleigh, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel has officially opened under its new name, destined to captivate travelers with its culturally-inspired design, southern-rooted charm, and good old fashioned manners, embodying a true sense of home.
Named after one of Raleigh’s largest and most popular hotels in the 1700s and 1800’s and the registered birthplace of U.S. President Andrew Johnson in 1808, Casso’s Inn, The Casso delivers an authentic guest experience synonymous with Raleigh.
The eclectic hotel features 126 guest rooms, as well as an effortlessly hip and magnetic design, thoughtful amenities, stylish meeting and event space, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, and the chef-driven, and full-service restaurant and bar, Good Day Good Night. Throughout the hotel, guests will enjoy character-filled social spaces with noteworthy art installations, including a larger-than-life mural of Sir Walter Raleigh, the city’s namesake, that welcomes guests upon arrival.
Each floor is designed around a different locally inspired theme, with every space intentionally connecting guests back to the community. The history of the Warehouse District’s distinct vibe is also brought to life through interior design, featuring industrial millwork, concrete floors, exposed ductwork, patterned tiling, modern furniture and a bold use of color.
