Barringer Hotel, also known as Hall House, was a historic hotel building located at Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. The 12-story, red brick building consisted of the main block constructed in 1940 and five-bay-deep rear addition in 1950. The tall first level of the façade featured Art Deco-style decoration including a cast-concrete frontispiece with a low-relief stepped parallel lines and terminated at the top into a zig-zag pattern. The City of Charlotte renovated the structure in 1983 to apartments for elderly, low-income residents.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[1]

It was demolished on November 6, 2022.
