My wife and I visited Asheville for our anniversary and stayed at The Blind Tiger. It is a wonderful boutique hotel that is beautifully decorated with unique vintage art and furniture. It also is just a short walk from downtown. Would definitely stay here again!

The room was very clean. Bathroom was quite large with a 5 head large walk in shower. The breakfast was very good. We were able to walk to downtown Asheville quite easily.

We had visited the Portland location and absolutely adored the experience. Asheville did not disappoint! If you are looking for inspired aesthetics, kind hosts, great locations, and unique touches, Blind Tigers are for you. This breakfast wasn't quite as mindblowing as Portland's, but the host was gracious to explain the limitations they face and in light of that, it was adequate and still delightful. The Table is SO spacious we were able to crash with 4 kids on various padded spaces with extra pillows and blankets we requested. Their sheets and blankets are divine. Could not have loved it more.

Everybody was very friendly and loved the room. Very old buildings but kept up well. The room we stayed in had a jacuzzi tub, fireplace, and its own entrance from outside and only one room above us in our building. Getting to downtown was an easy 5–10-minute drive. I would recommend this if you are looking for a nice little getaway in Asheville.

I stayed in Aug 2022. I definitely felt like home away from home. Everyone was accommodating and extremely nice. Very clean and had everything I needed. Great location. Coffee shops a block or so in either direction, one even had live jazz on a Sunday morning! Short walk or super quick uber to downtown. I loved all the period furniture. I will ALWAYS stay her for all future trips to Asheville! Thank you guys for a wonderful stay! ❤️
