We had a wonderful stay! This hotel is such a special property. Our room was lovely and we really enjoyed the thoughtful design and style of the place. Being able to walk right across the street to the concert venue was amazing. Customer service was outstanding. Jake was especially helpful and kind, going above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay! The breakfast was tasty too. Honestly, we didn’t want to leave!

EXCELLENT! This is my new favorite place in town. It’s an art deco style gorgeously appointed and thoughtful place. The rooms were stunning with massive bathrooms, the staff was beyond helpful, and the three houses that make up the property give it such charm. I wish I could vote this higher.

We loved our stay at Zelda Dearest! My daughter and I stayed Wednesday to Saturday for a girl’s retreat. The hotel was beautiful, the room spacious and clean, the service great, and the location an easy walk to restaurants and galleries. We loved the friendly atmosphere of the city, the many food options, and the art scene. I definitely recommend this hotel if you are considering a stay in Asheville.
