Blind Tiger Asheville

I made a last minute trip to Asheville and decided to try out the Blind Tiger. As you can see from the pictures, it’s an absolutely gorgeous property! I was able to text with staff to find out when my room would be ready, and for any questions. The pantry area was well appointed and the bed was super comfortable! My room (Vireo) was spacious and even had its own sitting room. The staff were very helpful. I will absolutely return.

Loved our stay at Blind Tiger! It was a last minute trip, and we were very impressed with everything the inn had to offer - thoughtful decor, super comfortable bed, a very comfy sitting room (we stayed at Vireo), free snacks and drinks, gorgeous courtyard view. Felt like we were alone at a beautiful historic home. Touches like lit fireplace on a chilly morning really made the stay. Housekeeping did a fantastic job too as the room was spotless.

The space is unique and gorgeous. The room was very cozy and the bed was SO COMFY! Excellent experience and wonderful recommendations. More than what I needed for a last minute stay in the best way. Texting made things super easy for check-in/check-out and questions. Will definitely return in the future!

The hotel website says the hotel is "more than an elevated bed and breakfast" yet no breakfast ... or at least I'm sure all guests wouldn't consider packaged oatmeal and a bowl of oranges as an elevated breakfast experience and guests aren't told that the hotel is run without onsite staff or any breakfast until they arrive. ||There's no staff onsite for check-in and everyone was confused. I had to help my parents find their room and then my parents helped another guest. They send you a text with the code to the door - just like an airbnb. I was confused myself but ran into a friendly housekeeper who was able to help. ||The pantry is a nice perk but there's no local produced or homemade snacks, as marketed ||WiFi worked in the main house but not in the building where my room was. ||The rooms were clean and you can tell a lot of thought and care was put into the furnishing and decor, which was lovely! I just think everything else was misleading and the guests should be aware in advance of booking. Lovely hotel but you can get the same service and amenities at an airbnb for half of the cost. Thanks!

Stayed here for a couple of nights on a recent vacation and it was amazing! The house is beautiful with lots of games and things to enjoy, our room was very clean, and I loved the design of it. The only slight disappointment was the breakfast options, but I did really appreciate the snacks that were provided were very allergy inclusive which is always a nice touch. I would definitely stay here again!

We rented out the entire inn for our daughter's wedding and it could not have been a better experience. Our family enjoyed breakfasts and lunches together in the living room, and visiting around the firepit in the evenings. Everyone loved their rooms. We also hosted a pizza party in the backyard one night, and then our welcome party in the main house the night before the wedding. Guests all raved about it. The staff is incredibly helpful, accomodating and kind. Truly a wonderful experience in every way.

The marketing blurb in no way matches the actual experience. Checking in was all done via email, and no one seemed to actually run the place. Our room was perfectly clean and the bed was very comfortable but the room was musty and dark. The grounds surrounding the property were poorly maintained and we had a very sad green plastic chair sitting at the entrance to our room. Wifi was non existent in our room and breakfast was pitiful. A saving grace was its location to a good neighbourhood restaurant and breakfast place. I question whether this place should position itself as upmarket and as others have suggested, just be an Airbnb.

We visited on a quick anniversary trip. I don’t know how we got so lucky in finding the Blind Tiger! The inn/property are beautiful, well cared for, and interestingly decorated. Super cozy and comfortable suite and self-serve breakfast options were perfect. Loved the walkable neighborhood and I wish we had more time to spend, but will be back!

stayed here for a quick little weekend reset and it was a lovely choice. We will be back! We actually got to check out two different rooms - one in the main house and one in the carriage house, because of a mixup in our booking (we got in late and didn't mind :)). A note to all- be sure to remember it's an old house with lots of steps for your luggage. First room (Krauss) had a larger separate seating area. Whoever designed and decorated this place did an incredible job sourcing high quality and condition beautiful vintage pieces. Everything was a vibe, while maintaining historical quirky charm and adding modern amenities. We moved over to the Five Points room the second night which was in the carriage house. It had a gorgeous fireplace and the bathtub we were excited to take advantage of! Text service was kind, quick and responsible. Everything was maintained great. We can't wait to come back and stay here again. Great location and close to downtown.

Loved this place & its quirkiness. You definitely need to notice the fine print which I may not have fully but isn't a true B&B. However, there are plenty of free breakfast continental items and specialty coffees and teas for your enjoyment. Self service what you want and how ever much you want. Snacks and drinks always available. Saw a staff member 1 time in almost a 2 days; however, the modern & convenient text service works fantastic!! I did have to use & got immediate responses. So you feel like it's your home practically. The bed was super comfy and loved the room. Sink was in the room outside the bathroom which was added quirkiness, but it did have slow backup so we couldn't run the sink hardly. That was only hiccup which wasn't a big deal. You are fairly close to things and definitely short drives to others. Would definitely come back!! And a great price!! Free parking!!

We decided last minute to stay the night in Asheville. This spot was a great value and not far from many restaurants and shops. We stayed on a Monday night and were the only ones in the main house. They did a great job with this place. Check in was easy and the employee was still there and gave us a tour and showed us to our room. The one room on the main floor had many mirrors so I asked if it was haunted. They said no and we never heard or saw anything that it was. The house was typical for an old home, floors were definitely not level. They have great snacks to offer. There were games to watch play. We played dominoes. They offer sound machines but the individual a/c units in each room are probably enough. Our room had a sitting room, bedroom and separate bathroom. Unfortunately I missed taking some pics here but recommend staying here.

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend and really enjoyed our stay! The property is so quaint, beautiful, and well-maintained. Our room was very comfortable and the bed was one of the best we've had at a hotel. Complimentary snacks and drinks was a lovely touch and breakfast in the morning was convenient. The breakfast options are limited but served our purposes as we had early mornings. The location is great and the property is just a few minutes from downtown Asheville. We highly recommend staying here and would stay here again if traveling to Asheville!

I loved everything about it! Cute with a Lord of the Rings cosplay kind of vibe. If you need a tv to fall asleep better bring a noise machine. Fortunately I was able to get nearly blackout drunk every night in Asheville so no worries there

We had an excellent experience at the Blind Tiger. We switched from another hotel after sleeping poorly for 2 nights. The Blind Tiger staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and quiet and we slept great. Soft pillows, a sitting area, a dining table and beautiful bathroom. We will look for a Lark hotel in the future.

Holli, so sorry, but there are no excuses for the condition of the property. If you all knew that the weather was going to be bad and that your heaters or furnace might not be adequate, then why did you wait until xmas eve to send someone out to buy space heaters? Lights that need to be changed in rooms and inedible small buffet breakfast is not a historic event issue. Especially when we paid over $400 a night which we were not given back for that night when we were aroused from the room we booked to a room that showed the walls had been painted around fixtures and paintings haphazardly. My standards are higher at that price. I hope you can take a realistic look at the property and either have the new owners fix the place up or lower your prices. We will not be coming back. And we were not alone in our experience. Good luck.
