Luxurious, quiet, wonderful service, great bar and terrace… we can’t say enough about Zelda Dearest. Staying there was a welcome break from chain hotels during college touring. We felt pampered and relaxed. Don’t pass this gem up!

We loved our stay at Zelda Dearest! My daughter and I stayed Wednesday to Saturday for a girl’s retreat. The hotel was beautiful, the room spacious and clean, the service great, and the location an easy walk to restaurants and galleries. We loved the friendly atmosphere of the city, the many food options, and the art scene. I definitely recommend this hotel if you are considering a stay in Asheville.

Stylish hotel with wonderful service
Not only was this hotel gorgeous and so beautifully decorated, the service was genuinely lovely. I had a lot of trouble getting there after multiple delayed flights and they were very flexible with my reservation and when I arrived I found they had upgraded my room to an incredible suite. The suite was very large and very comfort has been considered. The bar area if beautiful as well. I also had to leave very early in the morning to make a flight and missed breakfast service. They were kind enough to pack up a breakfast bag for me to take with me. That's wonderful service. I will definitely be back.

Great property, staff, and location!
Everything from booking to check out was flawless. The property is in a great location, secure, and everything in the room was spotless. The breakfast provided in the morning was another bonus. Even after we checked out, the staff went above and beyond to help us with something we needed assistance with. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Asheville.
