Independent Penrose hotels

"The property was new, clean, and as friendly a staff as Ive encountered in my travels. And this was before and during a tropical storm!"

"Very quiet and comfortable room with a small kitchen. The staff is very friendly."

"Clean rooms most important, friendly staff very helpful"

"We loved our stay at the Biltmore. With the room you can enjoy all of the grounds of the estate (with the exception of the house). We really enjoyed the Chihuly display (paid extra for that) and the wine tasting. The coffee shop downstairs had a variety of things to fill our picnic basket (spreads and crackers, olives and wine, etc.) and the weather was perfect! Couldn’t ask for a more romantic picnic perched on the grassy hill overlooking the mansion. "

"It was great to find a hotel close to Asheville that had water and power. They have a restaurant on site with a great bartender. Food was delicious. The area is still torn up with a bunch of downed trees, but the main building was clean and quiet. Check in was a bit of a hassle but the staff there was quick to help. Will certainly stay there again as I am working the hurricane damages and will be back. "

"Truly a lovely retreat. No tv's but there was wifi. The breakfast buffet (included) was very good and the service was delightful! It's only about ten minutes from downtown Hendersonville, which is charming and has lots of restaurants and shops."

"This is a hidden gem of a place! Even without a lobby available 24 hours, the text message communications for arrival, assistance and departure were prompt, professional and thorough. The rooms have been updated with new age functionality, while still maintaining its mountain cottage charm- wonderfully well done! Beautiful landscaping and rustic cabin design, coupled with Roku tvs and keurigs in the rooms- we thought it was the absolute perfect combination of tradition and technology. In...

"We enjoyed our vintage airstream experience at Asheville River Cabins. The setting right on the French Broad River is magnificent! The only disappointment was that the vintage airstream smells of cigarettes, although I got accustomed to it once inside, with the help of an aromatherapy spray. The memory foam mattress was very comfortable, and the kitchen had nice dishes and cooking equipment. Enjoyed our French press coffee every morning. "
