Top Smith-McDowell House Museum Hotel Reviews

Renaissance Asheville Downtown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Property needs a little updating but it was a very nice stay overall"

Courtyard by Marriott Asheville Biltmore Village

10/10 Excellent

"Great 2-night stay here to enjoy a Biltmore weekend. The rooms were spacious, and the staff was very accommodating."

Clarion Pointe Biltmore Village

10/10 Excellent

"Located only 5 mins to the Biltmore. In the same parking lot as Texas Roadhouse. The only downfall is that it is right off the interstate. So if you are a light sleeper.. probably not the place for you. The hotel itself was very nice, clean. Beds comfy! Breakfast was ok as well."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Asheville Biltmore Village

8/10 Good

"Very convenient hotel for Biltmore Estate or Biltmore Village. We have stayed here many times. Will consider other places due to the amount of homeless people and random non- guests hanging around the property. Staff doesn't seem to care about this when brought to their attention. Non-guests in the elevators, at the breakfast buffet, etc. Too bad! Was once a go-to property for us when visiting."

Oakland Cottage Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our time at the cottage: great location, rooms were adorable and well stocked, house was beautiful and cozy, the hostesses were great-knowledgeable, friendly and the breakfast was the best we had! I highly recommend!"

Residence Inn by Marriott Asheville Biltmore

8/10 Good

"Convenient location for the hospital visits we needed to make. The room was clean and bedding comfortable. Everything worked out well."

Cedar Crest Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the carriage house and it was my mom’s favorite part of our trip to Ashville! We had the whole house to ourselves as no other visitors had booked during this one night stay. Breakfast in the dining room was fantastic. Just what you needed. Hard boiled eggs, bagels @ cream cheese, juice, homemade granola, yogurt, coffee! All delicious. So fun to read all of the history of the Cedar Crest. We came from Northern California and knew very little about this area. This was our first night of our stay in Ashville and couldn’t have imagined a better stay."

AC Hotel by Marriott Asheville Biltmore Village

8/10 Good

"We had a brief stay …. Unfortunately had to leave a day early and the management couldn’t have been more helpful with the 2nd night cancellation . The staff A+! The room was clean & modern & very quiet ! We had a lovely dinner @ The corner kitchen . Nice stay . The breakfast was bizarre ! 17 $ just simply bad ! I think that needs to be completely rethought ."

Grand Bohemian Lodge Asheville, Autograph Collection®

10/10 Excellent

"Prettiest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Love the woodsy decor. Spa was awesome too!"
