The staff was amazing! Jam, Jenna, Jackson and Matt were some of the friendliest and helpful I’ve ever met! These guys are super stars! Thank you! The property is amazing and decorated perfectly! It’s truly stunning. The room was clean and neat and every amenity worked as it should. It was a joy staying in such a well manicured facility. The only negative to this stay was the water temperature. I’m not sure if they were having difficulties or the water heater isn’t big enough but the temperature in the shower or tub never got above luke warm at any time. I spoke to a few other guests on my floor and they said the same thing. It’s not a deal-breaker by any stretch but after a long day of walking and playing it’d be nice to take a hot shower.

Beautiful and spacious. Located conveniently downtown with access to many shops and restaurants within walking distance. Overall, pleasant stay. Would recommend putting microwaves in the rooms so guest doesn’t have to go to the area by the vending machines in the lobby just to access a microwave. On another note, there was no access to WiFi and no communication surrounding the outage or restoration ETA. Also, it’s a busy place and it would be nice to not have to have more than one person valeting vehicles to minimize confusion and delays.

This used to be our favorite place to stay when visiting Asheville and where we stayed for our honeymoon 20 years ago. We have been back several times since then and spent our 20th anniversary there last weekend. For the most part, the previous stays have been very nice. The hotel looks like it has not had any significant updates since we first went there. Even the furniture looked the same. The mattress on the bed was in poor shape and slanted towards the middle and had no box spring for support. The shower had very poor water pressure and was luke warm at best (as was the water in the tub) when the dial was turned all the way to hot. We notified the staff several times about the shower and maintenance may have been sent, but with no appreciable improvement to the water pressure or temperature. There were some other issues, but minor in comparison to the water issue. We will most likely stay at a different hotel or rent an air bnb our next trip to Asheville which is a shame because we have had great experiences at the Haywood Park Hotel in the past.

A beautiful hotel which was once a department store - cleverly decorated and huge rooms - we loved staying there in walking distance of all kinds of restaurants and shops. Only thing disappointing was their restaurant wasn’t open and there was no pool. Excellent stay will return again. Valet was superb!!

What an amazing property, I love old buildings and this is a really cool one. I guess at some point it was a big local department store but now its a wonderful hotel. Its really close to lots of restaurants and cool little shops. If your going to a concert its a very short walk to the venue, if your going to Asheville I highly recommend staying here.

Felt the hotel was missing a few amenities for their particular price point. Check in process was very slow and tedious, first set of keys issued did not work. There was no fridge in the room, also no ice provided on each floor, ice had to be retrieved from front counter, which you had to wait in line for again. The cleanliness and room condition was very good, comfortable bed and linens. No lobby bar or reataraunt available was dissapointing, everything was under renovation.

Our room was right above the trash dumpsters and that is all I heard all night. The wifi was awful and never kept a connection which usually would not matter as I can usually stream something from a hotel tv or watch premium on their system but not here. This room was not cheap so I was really disappointed with this lack of service.

I thought it was unique that the hotel used to be an Ivey's and the elevators announce the clothing for the floor you are arriving on. But I was a little disappointed that there was no coffee IN the room. I had to go downstairs and make it myself. There is also no ability to get your own ice, so I had to go to the lobby and request ice and a glass. I paid extra for a City View room but all I could see was the brick of the building next door. The staff was great and accommodating.
