Authentically Winston-Salem, yet it feels more like you’re in the French countryside. One of the country’s most enchanting historic hotels is in our backyard. Graylyn Estates is a Norman Revival-style mansion on the National Register of Historic Places. The hotel doubles as a sophisticated and highly sought-after executive conference center and event space.
