    There is not much else that is better than warming up near the fireplace inside the lobby area of the Grove Park Inn.

    This historical hotel-resort blends new and old into one.

    When it is too cold outside to enjoy the view or a drink & snack, then a cozy room with a view at the Grove Park Inn will meet anyone's needs and unpublished amentities like popcorn in your room make it right for the night.

    Built in 1913 of local granite, the Grove Park Inn (http://www.groveparkinn.com) has been a favorite of mine and will always be.

    I really enjoyed the national gingerbread house competition and the display the resort laid our for the contest in November.

    Would I stay here again---Absolutely yes.

    I have enjoyed the Grove Park Inn in both summer and winter but Christmas time is especially nice with the decorations, the cold weather, and the events they sponsor including the national gingerbread house competition.

    The spa is unreal. It lies beneath the foundation of the Inn and has every imaginable option for the spa-minded person.

    Rooms facing the city are my favorite but I do not think there is a "bad" view anywhere on the property.

    Grand hotel hidden in the Blue Ridge Mountains, with a turn-of-the-century design architecture. Even if you do not stay here, you can tour its huge lobby and property or simply dine at one of its restaurants.

    • We've stayed at the Grove Park Inn 3 times over the past 5 years and have never had anything but a great time. We've stayed with our girls (currently 10 and 11) and also just my wife and I. Ask for a room in the original lodge building which were refurbished about 2001.

    the grove park inn was built in 1913 in the arts & crafts style. this historic hotel has hosted numerous presidents and other famous people. this luxuary hotel has a relaxed old south atmosphere but has all of the amenites that you would expect of a modern luxury resort hotel. the grove park inn offers a spa, restaurant, and bar on premises as well as a golf course. the grove park in is located on sunset mountain and offers beautiful views of asheville. this historic hotel is in my opinion the best hotel in asheville.

    Stayed there on business and was definitlely not disappointed. The lobby is a large open area, with fireplaces that are at least 15 - 20 foot wide on both sides of the room, all overlooking the layout of the rest of the Inn and grounds. Good selection of restaurants with fare that ranges from reasonably priced sandwiches to highly priced Kobe steaks.

    Excellent views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It would be a wonderful place to go for a couple's getaway.

    The Sports Complex is where you will find the indoor pool, fitness equipment and indoor tennis.
    The pool is a square and they had one lane barred off for lap swimming.
    The locker rooms were bright and cheerful with a tile motif.
    The outdoor tennis courts were next to the parking lot for the sports complex. The outdoor pool, which I saw but didn't use or take a picture of it, is about a mile away from the GPI. They provide a shuttle to carry guests back and forth. The Sports Complex is right behind the Inn.

    Most of the facilities are duplicated in the Sports Complex which is nice because guests can do tennis, swim, etc. year round here at the GPI.

    We went to the Grove Park Inn for a little R&R from the heat in Augusta during the heatwave of 2007. We arrived about 3PM and had no problem checking in an hour early. Our room was in the Vanderbilt wing. The two wings, Sammons and Vanderbilt are much newer than the original structure. Our room had an entire wall of windows. It was spacious and clean. They don't have flat screen TVs yet or duvets on the beds. All three of the table lamps had three way lightbulbs that worked! Now "that" impresses me. It looked very nice and we enjoyed our visit. No problems - very comfortable and relaxing. There only seemed to be a small business meeting going on and not a lot of tourists and visitors. Surprise - surprise!
    We had the buffet breakfast while we were there. They offered fresh cut up canaloupe, honey dew melon and fresh pineapple. They did not have any bowls of apples, oranges or any other fresh fruit setting out.
    There was a little yogurt but no toppings of granola, nuts, etc. We did see raisins, brown sugar etc. by the hot oatmeal. They also had a chef there to make omelettes.
    They had spinache and swiss cheese with all the other fixings so they made a Florentine Omelette for my husband. They had plain grits and cheese grits and also O'Brien Potatoes - the potatoes were very good.
    I would say for the $16.99 cost of each breakfast it was nothing extraordinary.

    The staff is very gracious and accomodating here. There is a shuttle to take you around on the grounds to the Country Club for golf, or to the outdoor pool. The indoor pool is in the Sports Complex which is a large two story building behind the Grove Park Inn.
    All the locker rooms at the complex were clean and very well equipped.
    The Spa is an entire event in itself. It costs $45 if you are a guest. That fee is just for a swim or using their outdoor patio. You can come to the spa if you are visiting Asheville and not staying at the GPI. The prices for a massage start at about $249 and the manicures start at $80. Oh, you get to keep the bottle of nail polish.
