Stunning views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and 8,000 acres of manicured grounds make The Inn on Biltmore Estate a picturesque location straight out of your most elegant fantasy. Completed in 1895, George Vanderbilt’s estate was conceived as a lavish paradise nestled among the rolling hills of Asheville. Biltmore Estate remains the largest historic home in the United States by a considerable margin, and The Inn on Biltmore Estate has been welcoming visitors to enjoy its many luxuries since 2001.

The first thing you’ll likely be compelled to do upon arriving at the inn is to explore the pristine gardens.  The Biltmore Rose Garden features a one-of-a-kind collection of roses from around the world, and the Biltmore Azalea Garden in full bloom is a sight to behold. After strolling around these or any of the other meticulously maintained on-site gardens, enjoy a swim at the heated pool or allow the steamy hot tub to rejuvenate you. For a full beauty treatment, visit the estate’s spa, where trained massage therapists and aestheticians will ensure that you receive the extravagant treatment that you deserve.

The Châteauesque estate is complemented beautifully by Biltmore Winery, where you can take an informative tour of the winemaking process and sip some of the nearly two-dozen wines that are carefully bottled there. Not content to simply have its own winery, the estate’s Antler Hill Village is a cozy spot that seamlessly blends a collection of cute shops and historical demonstrations into the natural beauty that Asheville is known for. The village also features award-winning restaurants in a variety of styles, ensuring that you can dine on everything from gourmet seafood dishes to Southern comfort favorites.

Though you could spend a lifetime enjoying everything The Inn on Biltmore Estate has to offer, Downtown Asheville – with its thriving art scene and rich museums – is just a few miles away. For a beautiful honeymoon with endless opportunities for photo-worthy moments, you can’t go wrong with this Asheville destination.

Holiday Cheer

We stayed at the Inn at the Biltmore for one night to celebrate a family member’s birthday and go to the candlelight Christmas at the house. The shuttle service was very convenient and meant much less walking in the cold. We had nice rooms in the renovated section of the...

Great Getaway, excellent service & food, can't say enough

Had (another) great time (about our 15th time at the Estate). Was not sure what to expect after the storm hit and all the damage in Asheville, NC. We saw a lot of trees down or missing along the way and on the estate. You can see it when you...

Four visits, no regrets

We have spent 3 to 5 nights at the Inn each year from 2021 to 2024 and have never had a bad experience. As many other reviews have stated, the help has been nothing but pleasant. The bedding is very comfortable by our judgement, the regular rooms somewhat small, but...

Disappointed. Awful the last two nights…

Our stay was 9/17-9/21/24 in Sloane Suite Room 436. We had a lovely time until two nights ago. A family with three small kids checked into the Webb Suite Room 438 which was the suite to our left on the 4th floor. We are guessing that is when they checked...

A luxurious, peaceful place to vacation

Stay at the Omni instead, trust me

Rough start and continued not so good experience. Our trip started with the valet line being backed up because the Biltmore shuttle bus was blocking the driveway, we managed to pull up next to the bus to get into line and as we were sitting in the car the bus...

Beware of the Inn

Excessive prices didn't result in a extraordinary experience. The recently renovated room didn't result in a dark bedroom making it difficult to sleep. Housekeeping wasn't up to standard and the view they gave up was over the car entrance. They allow smoking on the patio ruining the experience for all...

Disappointing and Substandard Experience

Sadly, this was an all-around cheap motel level experience, rather than the elegant, sophisticated, and professionally run establishment one would expect at the Biltmore. We arrived at the Inn two hours early and enquired about a 2:00 entry. The front desk clerk pushed many many buttons on her computer and...

Loved this hotel and location on the Biltmore Estate!

Excellent place to stay near everything! We went to see the Chihuly exhibit and walk the gardens and visit the winery. Absolutely the most beautifully done gardens and atrium! Check out the free wine tasting and sample our favorite wine, Hunt! 🍷❤️🍷
