For those who can afford it, the four-pearl Inn on Biltmore Estate delivers a memorable experience. The stately property that opened in 2001 on the grounds of the world-famous Biltmore Estate offers spectacular views around every corner from its hilltop perch. Highlights of its extensive amenities package include fine dining, a full-service spa, pool, and fitness center. Its 210 guest rooms are traditionally decorated, spacious, and nicely appointed, with Keurig coffeemakers, robes, nightly turndown, and marble bathrooms. Some units include balconies and separate walk-in showers and whirlpool tubs. But the grand experience comes at a hefty price that doesn’t include admission to the Biltmore Estate. The three-pearl Village Hotel on Biltmore Estate also allows visitors to stay on the Estate grounds, but often at lower rates.

Situated within a five-minute walk of restaurants, bars, and shops in downtown Asheville, this three-and-a-half-pearl chain hotel makes for a clean and contemporary base. Common spaces are bright and airy, while the 140 spacious guest rooms all have corner sleeper sofas as well as large flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and coffeemakers -- but note that some can experience noise from the nearby interstate. There's a cool rooftop bar with an outdoor terrace that serves craft beers and small plates, as well as a cafe/bar with Starbucks coffee. Light meals/snacks are available for purchase 24/7. Other features include an indoor pool and small fitness center, but guests complain that parking incurs a fee. For an alternative with an outdoor pool, check out Aloft Asheville Downtown.

The mid-range Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Asheville Downtown is a simple, family-friendly option about a seven-minute drive to downtown Asheville (the property offers a free area shuttle.) Decor is uninspired, but the property offers a handful of features, like a small indoor/outdoor pool, fitness room with a couple of machines, and a grill and bar serving breakfast and dinner (plus kids under 11 eat free). Business travelers are also catered to with three meeting rooms and a business center. The 111 guest rooms are equally lackluster in terms of decor, but loaded with amenities like flat-screen TVs, Keurig coffeemakers, microwaves, mini-fridges, and free Wi-Fi. For something with more character, check out the Black Walnut Bed and Breakfast Inn -- but it's more expensive.
