The Mansion on Forsyth Park

In the Fall of 2022, this historic 126-room property began a multimillion-dollar phased transformation and expansion project, offering a new urban resort that is expected to be completed in spring 2024. The Mansion on Forsyth Park will be reimagined as The Bardo, a member of Leading Hotels of the World. The Bardo will have 149 guestrooms and a range of food and beverage concepts, including a main restaurant, club bar and lounge, pool restaurant and bar, lobby bar, multiple event spaces, spa and retail options.

Spring 2023 will introduce a new restaurant concept inside the original mansion, which also houses the current restaurant. The mansion also houses a culinary school where guests can hone their skills and the school will remain operational in the new urban resort.

Originally built in 1888 as a private residence for the Lewis Kayton family and converted to a hotel in 2005, the new Mansion on Forsyth Park, The Bardo, will offer a range of amenities and programming. Guests will have access to special events, bespoke local shopping experiences, holistic wellness programming and signature retail offerings. The Bardo will offer holistic wellness programming elevated with luxurious and restorative experiences tailored to each guest. Guests will have the option to relax poolside or indulge at the spa, as well as explore a number of hidden hideaways that will be found throughout the grounds.
