For the area the hotel works. Definitely a good stay and the rooms are very clean. Also we usually do not eat Continental breakfast but after seeing how clean the hotel was we decided to. Food was pretty darn good if I might say so. Thanks for the good stay!

Amazing location- close to Beech and Sugar Mountain. Staff was friendly and helpful, recommending several places to eat that ended up being amazing. Banner Elk is a cute little town with a good amount of things to do all things considered. The outside looks sort of run down, but the lobby was very welcoming and well kept. The room was clean and perfect for the weekend trip. The breakfast was standard for continental breakfast. The hotel was perfect for what we needed it for and we’d definitely stay there again if we made another trip up to the mountains.
