Princess Anne Boutique Hotel

Property is located in a quiet neighborhood about 1 mile walk from Biltmore Ave. we had the superior suite with a living room, kitchenette and a bedroom and bathroom. Not sure how big the regular rooms are. The elevators were not functioning due to flooding after Helene. Parking was free which is great because most hotels charge $50 per day. The lounge is big and relaxing, would be great if breakfast is provided because there is one cafe close by but most of the stores and restaurants are about 1 mile away ( there may be some close by that I didn’t discover). The staff is wonderful, Acorn changed our room since the first room had a leaking AC. She made me a plate of cheese and crackers when i got really hungry and the city bakery ( the nearest cafe) was closed. The bed was comfortable. All in all a good place to stay

The whole stay felt like a visit to someone's home. Our room was comfortable, clean, welcoming. I loved the community areas of the building on the first floor. A sitting room had a fireplace and comfy seating. Wine hour in the evenings - visit the front desk for a cup of wine, a beer, or a soda or other non-alchol drink. I laid in bed (third floor room) and watched a huge eastern hemlock tree sway in the wind. Our visit was for New Year's Eve - it was a bit cold out. I am eager to go visit again in warmer times so that I can enjoy the porch seating. The hotel is nestled on a little neighborhood full of older looking house, mostly 2 stories tall. There were people put walking their dogs, but the streets were quiet and there was little vehicle traffic. We saved this hotel in our Map App and labeled it "We Love This Hotel" so that anytime we consider going to Asheville for a visit we will be able to pull it up easily - this year, next year, 10 years down the road. We want it at our fingertips.

The location is perfect for exploring the surrounding town of Asheville, especially if you’re interested in spending time downtown or at some of the delightful breweries and restaurants. There’s a delicious bakery and restaurant within 5 minute walking distance. The staff are both accommodating and friendly - very easy to chat with. They were welcoming upon check-in and continued to make sure the stay was comfortable. The room was spacious for one person with a well-stocked kitchenette, living area, separate bedroom and private bath. The floors are a bit creaky, so you can hear if you have upstairs neighbors, but that’s part of the charm of an historic building. There are plenty of outdoor and indoor seating areas for gathering to meet the other guests during happy hour. I would recommend this hotel to solo travelers, families, and for romantic occasions.

I have zero complaints about Princess Anne Hotel. They were most accommodating, professional and the staff were all very friendly and jumped on any requests we had immediately. The hotel was as clean as it could possibly have been. We plan to come to Asheville again, if for no other reason than to stay at the Princess Anne.

Everything was awesome! Keep in mind this is a historic hotel so there are some boiler noises occasionally. And stairs.
