Haywood Park Hotel, Ascend Hotel Collection

“Dog friendly, Nice Hotel”

The hotel is an old department store which has been tastefully decorated. We enjoyed the elevator announcing the original department, as we rode up to our room. We stayed on the 2nd floor "Mens dept." and my newlywed daughter and new son-in-law stayed in a suite on the 3rd floor "childrens" lol… more

The hotel is an old department store which has been tastefully decorated. We enjoyed the elevator announcing the original department, as we rode up to our room. We stayed on the 2nd floor "Mens dept." and my newlywed daughter and new son-in-law stayed in a suite on the 3rd floor "childrens" lol The lobby , elevator and rooms were kept spotless. Coffee was available by Keurig in the room or complimentary in the lobby. Valet was a pleasure to deal with. You just text when you want your car and it is delivered with a smile. It is a dog friendly hotel. We did not travel with a dog, but found the dogs to be perfect guest. The rooms and the lobby always smelled fresh.

“Beautiful hotel”

We stayed in, I believe, one of the most expensive rooms and I had high expectations. It did not disappoint.

We stayed in, I believe, one of the most expensive rooms and I had high expectations. It did not disappoint. The room was very spacious with a huge bathroom, separate bedroom and separate sitting area. All areas were clean and well maintained. Bathroom was awesome. We were on the 2nd floor so city view is more street view. The hotel is only 4 or 5 floors though. I thought the decor was very fitting. We enjoyed the fact that each floor had nuances of a particular floor of the old mall. There was also a large sitting area on each floor with the rooms surrounding it. The reception area is also very unique and spacious with an old car in it. Very tall ceilings as well. Front desk staff was very welcoming, housekeeping friendly and valet was exceptionally efficient. If you want to be in the heart of Asheville, the hotel is the perfect spot. There is a charge to park but as I said the valet is very responsive and we were in and out often with our car.

Had a great stay! (3 nights) The Haywood Park Hotel is located in a 1920's era refurbished, former department store (Bon Marche). Lobby features a fully operating 1929 Model A Sedan and memorabilia of the department store from that age. Our room (deluxe King Suite - Room 214) was HUGE! Living and Dining areas (with seating area, dining table/chairs, mini fridge and flat screen) with a separate bedroom which connects to a large bath with 2 sinks and a big shower with a rain shower head as well as a handle shower head. Separate area for the toilet. Flat screen, good sized closet. Bed was comfortable and the room was quiet (even though it faced the street) Hotel staff were very helpful with restaurant/bar suggestions and info about Asheville. Walkable to most within downtown Asheville. Valet parking is available ($17/night with no extra charge for in/out per day). Only (very minor) item is we had to go to the front desk in the lobby for ice. BUT - they serve champagne in the late afternoon so..... (try the Flat Iron Hotel roof bar across the street - great views of the Smokey Mountains)
