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.

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.

We went for a weekend trip. The renovations are well done and the rooms are thoughtfully decorated. Definitely a level of luxury with quality linens, robes, a steamer and good tea and coffee in the rooms. The location is perfect if you plan on wandering around downtown - it is very walkable.

Zelda Dearest was a pleasant surprise. We didn't know what to expect but really enjoyed the unique properties. Amy welcomed us and helped carry luggage to the room. She was a delight. The decor was enjoyable and the workmanship in the restoration was excellent. Great location for getting around town.

Lovely property! Such a great addition to Asheville!
The one thing of concern is the sunlight in the room does get REALLY hot, I know it might be an expense but tinted windows might be an option.

I took my boyfriend here for a birthday weekend. I love the renovation of these older homes and found our room to be lacking in nothing - I reserved the Magnolia with a soaking tub. The finish levels are very nice and our room quite large. The location in Asheville is excellent and I really liked that it's a smaller property compared to some of the other places around. I think the only negative I could say is that the location of our particular room within the hotel was at the top of the stairs to the main level so we heard folks both downstairs at the bar - not very often - and as they would walk through the hall from other rooms above us or on the same level. But I reserved a very specific room so there may have not been others to choose from. Overall a great stay and everyone was very nice. Bed was super comfy and soaking tub A+ after walking all over Asheville!

Enjoyed the Hotel immensely but cannot wait to return. My only concerns are that the internet service was spotty, which could be interpreted as a blessing,and the coffee in the room did not have ant stirrers.

Stayed only one night as a stopover and wished we had planned to stay longer. The hotel is beautiful, quiet and in an excellent location. Very comfortable beds, staff were extremely friendly and gave us great tips for our evening stroll to find food and beverages.

Perfect location to explore Asheville on foot from. Plenty of space in the room to spread out and be comfortable. They make you feel right at home. Everything is incredibly clean, and the environment felt very safe. I highly recommend this place for any kind of stay in Asheville.

New art deco style hotel in a number of separate units. Absolutely pristine with great service, great room furnishings, very clean, great continental breakfast, cool little bar and excellent location. My wife, who is not a fan of art deco, loved this place and insists we stay here on our next visit. Wow.

Beautiful hotel. Breakfast was great.

Perfection! Thank you to Lark Hospitality for giving these properties new life. The restoration is flawless and the rooms are gorgeous. The location is perfect - adjacent to the South Slope and just downhill from the heart of downtown Asheville. These magnificent homes could have easily been torn down to make room for condos or a modern hotel. Instead, they’ve been preserved and renewed for travelers to enjoy. Breakfast was easy, fast and delicious, parking was FREE, and the staff was super friendly. 10 out of 10. No notes!!!! My only request is to keep your rates affordable. Asheville is becoming too expensive for the average person to enjoy. Your reasonable rates made a great night possible. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
