It's all about the bed.

Having a bad back, my prayer before any hotel stay is, "Please, let it be a comfortable bed." The bed was a king-size as promised. Too often, it is only a queen. It was firm, but cushioned, with plenty of pillows. Totally comfy; I loved it. Everything else was as expected: no more, no less. My husband's only complaint was the smell of the cleaners used. I've smelled much worse and this was noticeable, but not offensive to me. Nor did I have an allergic reaction, which has happened in the past. Check-in was mildly complicated by having booked through O____z.. It seemed that our credit cards would not be approved for more than a dollar a day for "incidentals". It turned out to be a problem with the O____tz "card. The guy at check-in was matter of fact about it and said "It happens occasionally." Access to town was easy. I would stay there again.

Tupelo Honey Cafe is worth the trip, but try to make a reservation! Otherwise, you can expect a wait regardless of the day of the week or time of the day. We really enjoyed the Green Man porter at Jack of the Wood pub.

Good value

The staff at this hotel could not have been more welcoming. There were cookies, pieces of fruit, and hot coffee in the lobby at all times. The hot breakfast on real plates was great. Towels were great, but washcloths a little thin and skimpy. Overall, a great first Country Inn experience.

Family Get Together

It was a nice hotel in a great location. It was near the Biltmore, Grove Park Inn and downtown Asheville. There were a lot of restaurants within a few miles of the hotel.

The Tunnel Road location is close to multiple popular chain restaurants, mall shopping and a quick back road route to Biltmore.

Comfy hotel

We had a great stay at the Country Inn & Suites. The room was spacious and the beds were very comfortable. We even had the option of opening a window to the cool mountain air. :)

Clean and neat.

The hotel experience was exceptional with one source of discontent. After arrival, the hotel clerk wanted my billing address. Told me the Orbitz people were always leaving that information off when they sent in reservations. Secondly then he wanted my credit card and prescanned my card for hotel amenities in case I used the long distance telephone service. Even after telling him I had 2 cellphones with free long distance on them, I could not check into the hotel until he swiped my card. Rest assured I am watching the card like a hawk and WILL prosecute the hotel, the hotel clerk, and anyone else involved in a possible credit card scheme.

Great place to stay for business

Stayed here for four nights while I was in town for a business seminar. The hotel is close to everything and I love the hot tub!
