SUITE retreats By Joanne Spataro THE BRASS TAP THE IVEY'S HOTEL WHETHER YOU'RE HERE FOR WORK, TO VISIT FAMILY OR TO PLAY, CHARLOTTE'S COZY ACCOMMODATIONS NEVER CEASE TO ELEVATE YOUR STAY. If date nights have become few and far between since the little ones arrived, don't fret. Drop the kids with your parents and check into The Ivey's Hotel, located in Charlotte's historic Ivey's department store building, for a getaway that requires no effort and affords all the frills. Inside your elegantly appointed lair, which overlooks Uptown's vibrant West 5th Street, reclaimed French oak hardwoods, luxurious Italian linens and lavish fixtures marry in a design that offers a proper tip of the hat to the building's historic roots. Dressed in something fancy and spit-up-free, head downstairs to the guests-only Club Lounge on the second floor, where savory martinis and sumptuous leather seating welcome adult conversation and ultimate relaxation. After cocktails, cross the street to the Belk Theater for a showing of the wickedly amusing "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," which runs April 11 through April 16. Humming the show's brilliant musical score, cap off a sensational evening over seared Chilean sea bass and sake braised mushrooms at The Capital Grille. Spooning up every last bite of your crème brulee, you'll be dreaming of the cloudlike bathrobes that await you back in your room.
