Beaufort House Inn

Location

The house is beautiful. Very victorian and it great condition.

Het personeel is super aardig en het pand is een prachtig historisch gebouw met zo'n typisch amerikaanse veranda waar je sochtends je koffie kan drinken. Het is zo'n 20 minuten lopen naar het centrum en op rij afstand van arts district en waterfall hike.

Located in a quiet neighborhood and still close to downtown Asheville, it was the perfect location for us. It is a lovely historic house. Everyone is super friendly. We would stay here again if we return to Asheville.

Fantastic inn, great location, beautiful and clean! Staff was amazing as well. We would definitely stay again.

The Inn itself is a beautiful building and the grounds are well maintained. Nice walkable neighborhood of old houses. The desk manager, Sam, was pleasant and professional and was responsive to any questions we had. The Continental breakfast was okay - we only had it one day. Aside from that, the only thing I would not recommend is staying in the Oak Terrace Room. This is a basement room with the euphemism of "garden view"(which I know from being in northern cities but for some reason thought in the South they really just meant it was maybe a first-floor room with a view of a garden - dummy me). So, being a basement room it was humid and clammy and consequently our towels were damp, the bedding was damp-ish, and our clothing was damp (even things we hung out overnight to un-dampen a bit). Sam was kind enough to bring us new towels for our second night because there was no way the ones we used for our morning showers were going to dry at this rate. Since the entry is direct from the outside of the building and it was raining, there is no way you can avoid tracking in dirt even if you take your shoes off upon entering. Then the dirt gets stuck to the dampish laminate floor and ends up in the dampish sheets. The bed in this room is also almost too firm but some people do prefer that; it wasn't great though for side sleepers with bad hips. The internet was spotty for us in our room for our entire 2-night stay, bumping us out while in the middle of using it multiple times so I don't know if that is also because we were in an old basement. The glass block window looking into darkness (other half of the basement?) over the jetted tub was also kind of funky/odd since there was no natural light for it to let in. The nights were relatively quiet but you will hear the people in the room overhead walking around as is typical with an old building. Another thing noted upon entering the first day and upon returning if we went out: the fabric softener or chemical cleanser or whatever it is that they use in this room is very overpowering to the point of being headache-inducing. It was very noticeable even for people who like us who don't have scent sensitivities; I called the after-hours number to ask about this and they said it was likely fabric softener. If anything, I think investing in a good de-humidifier for this room and eliminating that overly perfumed fabric softener or cleanser odor or whatever it is would be a great start on improving it. Maybe also a boot/shoe tray to contain dirt from muddy shoes on rainy days. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so bad. Common areas of the Inn that we visited briefly did not have the same dampness. In the evenings, more caffeine-free teas and hot water would be nice. When we got back at 7 both nights the hot water was tepid at best, and the second night there were only caffeinated teas on hand. The chocolate chip cookies, though, are really good. If we return (we may) I would definitely choose a room on a higher floor. Overall, the Inn is a "Very Good". The Oak Terrace room, however, is only an "Average".

This is a gorgeous, comfortable, well maintained stay in a very convenient location. It was fantastic for our girls trip and the staff was wonderful. We would absolutely stay again!

We loved the Beaufort House Inn and it will be the only place we stay in Asheville. Sara and all the other hosts were awesome and accommodating (record heat in Asheville). The location could not be more convenient to everything Asheville has to offer. We will be back

Quiet, beauiful location. Clean room with lavendar smelling sheets. Mattress was excellent. Breakfast was good.

Loved the neighborhood and the interior and exterior of the property. Sarah and the staff were friendly and helpful. The four ceiling fans and comfortable furniture on the wraparound veranda suggest the overall southern highlands ambiance. Very relaxing!

My aunt & I enjoyed our stay at Beaufort Housr Inn very much; the Sarah Davidson suite was perfect for us with two bedrooms. We loved the porches, plush towels & serenity.. step back in time with a great location.. would love to return!

Beautiful restored home with charm and warmth. Spoke directly with the staff to insure our check in. We had 2 rooms and they were both great. Lovely breakfast with friendly guests who were also at the hotel
. Wish we could have stayed longer!
