Lantern Lodge Asheville Biltmore Village

Lantern Lodge Asheville Biltmore Village

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed our stay. The suite was clean and very roomy. Felt much better than a standard hotel room. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for visiting the Biltmore and other attractions in the area s well as great places to eat. Loved having. Full kitchen so we could have leisurely mornings in the room. The on,y thing was the tub dripped constantly but it’s isn’t affect us at all"
