Big news from our favorite small city.

New Bern, NC is full of new adventures to welcome travelers in the new year — headlined by the grand opening of the Tryon Riverfront Inn, a stylish stay in the heart of the cozy coastal getaway.

The 73-room boutique hotel features dreamy riverfront views, plus an unbeatable downtown location just a few steps from historic hotspots like Tryon Palace and the Birthplace of Pepsi.

Whether you’re looking for an easy-to-get-to waterfront retreat, a nearby Spring Break locale for the kids, or just a quiet weekend sipping and strolling through local shops, the new Hotel makes for an oh-so-luxurious home base.
