The breakfast was amazing. We had a wonderful french toast dish one morning, a fantastic cheese grits dish one day, and a puff pastry dish with ham and asparagus on our last day. The presentation was beautiful and each main dish was preceded by a fruit dish. The owners are friendly. The home is beautiful and spotless. Our room was... More

My husband and I stayed here one night on our way home from visiting his family for Christmas. We both loved this B&B and wished we had time to stay longer. We'll definitely be going back there on our next trip to Asheville. The house and rooms are beautifully decorated. Jim and Linda clearly pay a lot of attention to... More

Jim and Linda, the innkeepers, are both very gracious, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive. It is obvious they love sharing their lovely home with guests, and Jim's culinary skills are evident in his delicious breakfast creations that rival the fare at the best restaurants in a city known for its good eateries.

What a wonderful stay we had! Jim and Linda are so friendly, they accommodated to any of our special food requests, provided a tip sheet for good restaurants ... We stayed late November, so the area was not at its best with all the trees bare. But it is very quiet and their little, beautifully groomed garden invites for a... More

An elegant yet casual B & B located in the historic district, convenient to all. The furnishings are beautiful, the beds very comfy and everything is impeccably clean. The hosts, Jim and Linda, make you feel at home, offering extras like toiletries you may have forgotten, hair dryer in the room, plush robes and free access to a pantry with... More

Lion and Rose is a perfect combination of elegance, comfort, convenience, and congeniality... The suite was impeccably furnished but welcoming ... Jim and Linda were wonderful hosts and Jim's breakfasts are fit for a London club! ... More

We visited over a weekend in November to see the Biltmore and other sights. Everything is so convenient from the B&B, and the innkeepers are great! So many personal touches, it's hard to list them all. They serve up a DELICIOUS gourmet breakfast every morning, and keep a pantry stocked with snacks and drinks. Our room was very comfortable and...

We stayed here for three nights in early November together with another couple. All four of us could not have been more impressed. The house is beautiful and Linda & James have thought of everything. We felt very much at home and Linda’s recommendations for things to do and dining proved very successful. For us, the outstanding experience was breakfast.... More

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying here in October and it was all that the other reviewers on Tripadvisor said and more. The home was beautiful and both of the rooms we stayed in (due to scheduling) were perfect! Clean, spacious, quiet and tastefully decorated. Everything you could possibly ask for was there for you, including access... More

A beautiful home and so comfortable! Jim and Linda were the perfect hosts and provided everything needed by their guests. The food was exceptional and the 24 hour pantry was especially appreciated in the late hours. Very reasonably priced and conveniently located to most everything. More
