I've never actually stayed here, but they have the most WONDERFUL tea time! You just call them up and make a reservation. They do it every afternoon between 2 and 5pm. If you've never tried it, you must! It's like a traditional English tea time. This is a great outing for female groups or families. My husband and I took our niece with us and read her some stories while we all sipped our tea and enjoyed the yummy treats that accompanied it.

You will not be disappointed with this fun tea time experience!

Great service and accomodations, BUT if it's gonna be 102F and 90+% humidity, you better have a killer pool, not some substandard suburban home type model.

History

Established in 1998

Our namesake, O. Henry, the distinguished and world-renowned short story writer, was born in Greensboro as William Sydney Porter in 1862. With the city's justifiable pride in its native son, we couldn't resist naming our hotel the O. Henry. The 1998 portrait of William Sydney Porter by Frank P. Holton III, commissioned for the opening of the O. Henry Hotel hangs in the hotel lobby.

Meet the Manager: Quaintance-Weaver R.

The O.Henry Hotel is privately held, and it is operated by Quaintance-Weaver Restaurants & Hotels. Mike Weaver and Dennis Quaintance formed Quaintance-Weaver Restaurants in April of 1988 and opened their first restaurant in Greensboro, North Carolina in 1989 called Lucky 32. They started the company because they are good friends and wanted to be in business together, and because they believe that providing the services embodied in our mission will result in a successful company.

Dennis and Mike are partners; Dennis plays point with the operations of Quaintance-Weaver and Mike contributes in all matters. Mike is also the Chairman of Weaver Investment Company and does a lot of volunteer work.

The company has evolved over the years to become Quaintance-Weaver Restaurants & Hotels. The family now includes Lucky 32 in Cary, along with five businesses in Greensboro: Lucky 32, Green Valley Grill, O.Henry Hotel, Proximity Hotel and Print Works Bistro.
