Grand Bohemian Hotel Asheville

An Autograph Collection Hotel, Grand Bohemian is one of the best places to stay in Asheville if one of your biggest Asheville attractions and musts includes Biltmore Estate. Located in historic Biltmore Village, this area is full of shopping, restaurants, and breweries.

The Grand Bohemian literally sits across the street from Biltmore Estate’s gates. It is also about three miles from the heart of Downtown Asheville.

Be forewarned that this area grows congested with traffic, though. It’s the one real con along with the noise of the area.

However, similar to The Foundry, Grand Bohemian is one of the coolest and best hotels in Asheville for ambiance, character, and luxury.

Encounter a rustic 19th-century hunting lodge filled with classy 21st-century amenities.

As a 4-star luxury Asheville hotel, enjoy the spa, gym, and business center. Grand Bohemian is pet-friendly and has free Wi-Fi.

If taxidermy isn’t for you or you are living a vegan lifestyle, though, this might not be the best place to stay in Asheville.

Otherwise, enter a grand lobby filled with a blazing four-sided fireplace, comfy and stylish seating, and the friendliest staff. Showcased in locked containers on the walls, peer in at old hunting rifles.

Glimmering crystals hang from antler chandeliers and spy purple lights and flowery chairs, which lessen the “hunting” feel.

In 1913, he opened The Grove Park Inn to the public, just a few decades after the completion of Biltmore Estate.

Today, The Grove Park Inn resembles an adult Disney World resort, boastful of that luxury mountain lifestyle.

Village Hotel On Biltmore Estate

One of Biltmore Estate’s best accommodations, the Village Hotel is more budget and kid-friendly than The Inn. This gorgeous Antler Hill Village hotel boasts an outdoor pool and an on-site restaurant and cafe.

Wondering where to stay in Asheville? Biltmore Estate is America’s largest home and the former residence of George and Edith Vanderbilt. The estate is massive.

We have been Biltmore annual passholders for years, and we love taking advantage of their “passholder appreciation” seasons for discounts on food, lodging, and events.

We cannot recommend Biltmore enough for its wine, history, dining, great tours, and gentle hiking and biking trails (over 22 miles!). Yes; that Biltmore ticket price is worth it.

One of the best places to stay in Asheville, The Village Hotel is centrally located on the property – in Antler Hill Village – with moderate prices and spa access.

The amenities are plentiful, and The Village Hotel has an outdoor pool as well as its own restaurant, Village Social. Village Social serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner – with a kids’ menu.

Another great Biltmore dining option, The Kitchen Cafe boasts gourmet lattes and sandwiches, perfect if you are famished upon check-in.

If you are visiting or staying at The Village Hotel, we also recommend lunch or dinner at Cedric’s Tavern. Their seasonal cocktails are divine.

Stable Cafe is a delicious kid-friendly AVL restaurant too located in the Vanderbilts’ former horse stables.

And, keep in mind that Biltmore is largely family-friendly, especially with the large playground, Bike Barn – perfect for low-key mountain biking, live demonstrations, and the farmyard.

For family-friendly Asheville hotels, this is a great spot.

  1. We just drove a bit of the Blue Ridge Parkway and stopped over in Asheville. I have to say the food at Papa’s & Beer was excellent. Tasty, fresh and we loved all the salsa selections. Good choice!

  2. Hi Christine!

    Am loving all of your amazing blog posts. Am headed to Asheville this weekend for the first time. Your posts have helped me tailor my itinerary to maximize my time there. Thanks so much.

    Meanwhile, I have Asheville on my retirement-living short list and would like to spend some time there to get a feel for the area and community. I’m wondering if you could recommend a place to stay for a month or so. Someplace I could have as a base while I both work and explore. Could be a house, apartment, or residential hotel. As far as budget, I’m thinking $$$ or less for a month’s stay. And I don’t really have a time frame nailed down, so seasonal options, if available, would be appreciated. Finally, someplace downtown or nearby would be great. Does the Battery Park Book Exchange have a sister inn? I’m joking, but that will give you a sense of who I am.

    Thank you!

    Jill

    1. Hi Jill,

      Thank you so much for the kind message and welcome to Asheville. You are arriving just in time for the fall foliage.

      Haha, I wish we could stay inside the Battery Park Book Exchange. That would be fantastic.

      I’d look around North Asheville near UNC – Asheville. I have friends who just rented a home there, and I don’t think they have as restrictive lease agreements. Some of that area (like Montford) is also somewhat walkable to downtown — but still a tad father out.

      The Residence Inn (Marriott) at Biltmore offers extended stay rooms and receives good reviews; we’ve been around there but have never stayed there. Tunnel Road has extended stay hotels, but that area is kind of wild (and strip mall-ish).

      I’d check Airbnb, too. The city is restrictive on Airbnbs — so they are usually on the outskirts of town — but they do exist. We’ve also had friends in town that found cottages for rent around The NC Arboretum area (South Asheville).
