Smells good, very nice rooms, really high quality amenities, and an excellent restaurant with great cocktails and thoughtful wine list. TVs are new and have a built in Roku (idk if it’s actually Roku but you can sign in to Netflix and stuff). Very nice hotel. Google says 3 star but it’s closer to a 4 star hotel IMO.

The Embers is perfeclty located in downtown Blowing Rock offering easy access to the main street restaurants and shops. The property was clean and fresh and has great views of the surrounding area. It also has a great bar and restaurant onsite. We could not have been more pleased with the accomodations and overall experience.

The front desk person from 3 pm until 11 pm, probably should consider a different career given the obvious torture she appears to be in at work. Our stay is always exceptionally nice, with the exception of any afternoon or early evening contact we are forced to make with the unhappiness at the front desk. Cheers!

A hotel above and not just in altitude.

Super stay of 5 nights over the July 4th weekend. Room was on 2nd floor facing the town. Afforded us with great view, nice cool morning and afternoon, evening breeze. Were able to view from the balcony the parade on morning of the 5th and then a surprise viewing of fireworks display from a nearby location, all from the balcony. We mostly came up for the cooler air, but got so much more. Hotel has only one guest elevator that was out of service for a few hours. We went out and upon returning found it was repaired. Great job to the management for getting this attended to so quickly. Just a couple of suggestions. First is to get the main entry doors on automatic electric openers. This really should be a priority, comifrom someone that has been involved in hotel construction for many years. 2nd is, and trying to be picky, but the young lady that was attending the bar really would be so much better with a smiling attitude towards the guests. She always appeared to be so busy that it was too much trouble when asked for assistance. Yes, she did the job, but given the bar is a prominent focal point when entering the hotel, the attitude displayed is very much also a focal point. Food for thought. Thank you for a wonderful time. We will return.

No room service. They have take out but it comes in boxes. You order at the bar and take the carton to your room. You have to eat out of the carton since no plates were provided. Had no choice. My wife hurt her feet hiking and could not walk and go to the dining room.

No sleep-disturbingly loud AC and so close to bed!

Horrible stay, beautiful looks aren’t everything. The worst of all which impacted us the greatest was the extremely loud AC in the room. Plus, the AC unit was within mere inches from the left side of the bed and blew directly onto you all night. No regular pillows were provided, only down. The elevator was directly across from the room and the elevator announced through a speaker what floor, and other instructions. The walls were also very thin and you could hear the TV playing next door. From the main entrance you walk right into the lobby which is also the restaurant, wide open with no separation. It was very loud from the acoustics and not private. I cannot state enough how very loud the AC was - it was like I was traveling under the body of an 18-wheeler all night. Never have I experienced this before. As a result, neither of us managed to sleep. Upon check out the attendant asked us how our stay was and offered to comp our breakfast but we had already eaten somewhere else off the property so all we got was a sorry to hear that. The prices are astronomical and with a brand new hotel you would expect much better.
