“Great value!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 23, 2012 via mobile

Clean, newly renovated room. An easy 1.3 mile drive to the heart of downtown. We stayed 3 nights on the weekend when the hotel was totally booked and barely heard any noise at all. Slept very well. Only complaints were the VERY firm beds, which may be ok for some. And the clumpy pillows... We went to tjmaxx and bought our own. Also, there is an old abandoned motor lodge that was right outside of our window. The surrounding area is a tad run down, but there is an outback, Buffalo Wild Wings and a Cracker Barrel all within walking distance. And they have bath and body works minis in the rooms! Definitely a steal at the 45$ we scored the room for!

Stayed December 2012, traveled as a couple

“Not really downtown but close to Asheville”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 19, 2012

My wife and I wanted to spend an overnight in order to walk around downtown Asheville. We selected this hotel mainly because of the "downtown" in its name. The hotel is located a little over a mile from downtown Asheville. We found the hotel to be excellent in every way. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The hotel is very clean and well-maintained. The mattress in our room was outstanding with top shelf linen. Our room was as new and well furnished. We did not visit the restaurant or bar during our stay. I did however use the indoor swimming pool which is very small and use the hot tub. My only complaint about the hotel was the pool water temperature. It was very cold outside and the outdoor and indoor pools are not separated except by over the water vinyl strips. The pool heater did not keep up with the outside pool loss. We did walk from the hotel to downtown and back as the weather although very cool was nice and sunny. Asheville has many quaint shops and varied restaurants and worth the visit..

Thank You for writing a review about our hotel. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay. There are two Holiday Inns on Tunnel Road and to differentiate both hotels, IHG (Franchise) has given us the name of Downtown. We hope you will consider us for your future stay in Asheville.

“Great room, great city”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

Drove up to Asheville from Charleston during Thanksgiving holiday. Was impressed by this Holiday Inn. Even though I arrived late, the front desk staff was friendly and welcoming. Really liked the exercise room. Did not eat there, but I talked to a couple who had breakfast and they loved it. Had a fine view of the city and slept great. Would definitely stay here again.

“Clean, Quiet, & Comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

Good impression right away because check-in was easy and the people at the front desk were friendly. The room was big and it was very clean. Had everything I needed, and the hotel is close to all the main routes and downtown. I wish there was a free breakfast in the morning, and the pool didn't really look inviting, but otherwise it was great.

Room Tip: I had a room on the second floor overlooking the kind of run down hotel next door. It wasn't rea...
