Perfect home base in Downtown Asheville

The aloft in downtown Asheville is perfect. The location is great for that stretcher areas around the Orange Peel. I came in town for a show and was able to grab a drink and a bite to eat before hand all right there and a couple blocks. I brought my three year-old lab with me and he did great and the aloft has no hidden fees or anything for pets and are very pet friendly, including the staff. This definitely will be the first place. I will check anytime I’m coming into Asheville for a couple nights. Could not recommend this place more for the value in the location.

Room was comfy with a great view. Lots of shopping and dining nearby. Easy parking garage to use and being able to come and go as we pleased without a valet was nice. We brought our dog and everything was great.

Everything was nice except the linens. The pillows were worn out and lumpy and the sheets were not anywhere near good quality. For such a nice hotel you would think you could make the beds nicers.

The desk staff was excellent! Our check in was painless, and the staff were total pros. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and the hotel was centrally located making walking to restaurants and venues easy. Avoid "city view" rooms on weekends, because traffic noise is real.
