Posted — UpdatedCARY, N.C. — Cary could soon be home to the next five-star hotel. The new Umstead Hotel and Spa is marketing itself as a world-class luxury hotel.

Officials said some of the hotel's amenities include Italian furniture and wood ceilings from South America. In addition, its staff will have customized uniforms.
The hotel will have 150 guest rooms. Starting Monday, rooms are $295 a night. In three months, the fee jumps to $350 a night.
The spa will open Jan. 28.
