The room was way bigger than expected. We stayed in the Mystic Suite. A huge beautiful bathroom on top of that. Marble shower. The suite was well appointed in every way. Furniture and furnishings all appropriate to their Great Gadsby theme. Even the wallpaper. These kind of efforts sometimes come off as tacky. Not so with this place. The staff were so attentive. Especially Erica. The location is perfect for getting around downtown Asheville. We were fortunate that the restaurants were just getting back to being open after the tremendous damage wreaked by Hurricane Helene in late September.
Nothing. We have family living in Asheville so this is the place we will stay when we return every other year.

The hotel is beautiful and stylishly decorated. The staff is helpful and friendly. Everything was spotlessly clean. Great location a block or two from downtown but not in the middle of everything. Really loved it and would recommend to anyone.
We had some noise from a nearby bar on our first night (but it ended by 11:30 pm.) The hotel was happy to switch us to a different room for the rest of our stay that was quieter. Breakfast was ok, nothing special. Would be nice to provide milk options for coffee other than half & half or Coffee Mate. But very minor complaints - really a wonderful play to stay.

Everything was quite nice. The entire compound is laid out well and very charmimg. Our suite had a huge wrap around porch that was amazing. The pics were not as nice as the real thing! Walkable to all of downtown Ashville. Biltmore is a 6-7 minute drive away.
Coffee/Breakfast doesnt start until 830am. That's a little late for the price point. 730am would be a more common start time. You have to pay to self park on site which seems unreasonable for the cost per night.

Loved everything about the property. From the moment I checked in until I left I was so comfortable and taken care of. I loved being able to send a quick text to ask a simple question and receiving such a prompt response. The ladies that checked me in were great and helpful. My room was comfortable and clean. I felt safe as a solo female traveler and loved the convenient parking. This has easily become one of my favorite places to stay in the entire state of NC. The location is also fabulous. 10/10
Absolutely nothing. It was perfect!

We upgraded to a suite, plenty of room, 3 thermostats so never hot or cold in any part of the suite. Nice bar, nice pastry breakfast with huge pastries, fruit, yogurt, etc. Very friendly staff. Rooms renovated to modern fixtures, while the outside was 100+ years old. In the heart of the breweries too.

The room was so nice, and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was a nice surprise, with wonderful, fresh savory pastries, fruit, and snacks to go! I would definitely stay here again!

Breakfast had amazing selection of fresh baked goods. Rooms were stylishly decorated in a Zelda Fitzgerald theme. Staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions of things to do. Rooms were spacious and clean.
The hotel was located just a bit off the beaten path. Otherwise, everything was delightful.

Attention to detail, decor, Location to things to do. Quiet and comfortable property, felt secluded but still close to everything.
Wish bar stayed open past 10pm, especially since that’s the only access to ice at the property.
