"Spacious room and nice bathroom. Parking is valet, but convenient and worth it. The valet staff was particularly friendly and efficient.
Hemingways, the rooftop bar gave a nice view of the sunset. Only negative was that the waiters wouldn’t light the large fire pits, which would have been great as it was a bit chilly. The hotel is right in the heart of downtown Asheville — lots of bars, restaurants, shops etc"
"Absolutely beautiful place! The history this property holds is truly priceless. You could easily spend two full days walking around, exploring every floor, and reading all the photographs, stories, and historical information throughout the hotel. There's so much to take in, and every corner has something interesting to discover.
While staying here may not be within everyone's budget, I had the pleasure of spending three days at the Omni Grove Park Inn, and WOW! What an amazing experience. The property, the architecture, the history, and the atmosphere are all incredible.
My one criticism would be the rooms. They are definitely dated and could use a little updating. Now, you have to remember that this is an old, historic property, and that's part of its charm. I'm certainly not suggesting modernizing it to the point where it loses its character. However, some updates like newer windows, fresh paint, and upgraded mattresses would go a long way toward making the rooms more comfortable while still preserving the historic feel.
Even if you don't have the opportunity to stay here, I highly recommend stopping by just to explore, admire the property, and take some time to read about its incredible history. It's truly a piece of Asheville history that everyone should experience at least once!"
