We liked its proximity to downtown, and the bed was very comfortable. The HVAC unit in the room was on the border of being too noisy, and the bar was lacking basic mixtures for cocktails.

Not as nice as other renaissance hotels but good enough. Elevators were horribly slow, not sure if they were being worked on. This spot doesn’t use Aveda which I would expect. Very walkable to downtown.

The stay was great and so was the view overall it was great place to stay and everything is within walking distance. However when we went to use the bathtub to take a shower there sewage backed up that came spewing out all over the tub, thankfully we were given a new room with no questions asked. Great hotel overall.

Return to Asheville

This was a return trip for us exactly one year from our first stay. Booked for the location because we were in town for Billy Strings weekend! Walkable to everything including the concert venue. We were worried about how things would be considering the enormous damage to the RAD from Helene but the hotel was in great shape. A few suites were blocked off due to damage but all other amenities were available. The Writer’s Bistro was wonderful as usual. Thanks for hosting us and we’ll see you next time Billy is in town.
