Construction begins on luxury boutique hotel in uptown

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Expect this $110 million boutique hotel to bring a little sparkle — and funk — to uptown.

Construction is officially underway on the Grand Bohemian Hotel Charlotte. Plans call for that 254-room, 15-floor hotel to open in March 2020.

A groundbreaking was held Thursday, but this is a project three years in the making, says Richard Kessler, CEO of The Kessler Collection.

“What we’re building will be here for decades. We’re adding to the city and skyline for decades to come,” he says.
