Our stay at 1898 Waverly was lovely. The hosts are wonderful, the porch happy hour reception was wonderful and the breakfast was delicious. Our beds were very comfortable. Definitely keep in mind that this is an old boarding house with all the creaks and quirks of an old house. The decor was a bit outdated, but still charming and we had a very comfortable stay. It is within walking distance of plenty of shops and restaurants. We would stay here again.

They are lovely friendly people. Breakfast was delicious.... even have a menu where you can choose specific options... all top quality! The large home has a library full of books, puzzles, etc. to entertain. It is decorated with nostalgic furniture, art, and antiques. Plenty of parking. Close to multiple restaurants. I love the cool and shady front porch with rockers and porch swing. It's great for reading! Free drinks and appetizers at 5 pm were a great addition! My only complaint was the loud construction nearby until 1 a.m. The inn had no control over this, but it was extremely aggravating.

Perfect stay.

The property is charming and walking distance from downtown. Staff was friendly and helpful. The problem was that we were on a fairly busy street and traffic noise and sirens were a problem on a few nights. In addition, the blinds don’t close properly so morning light comes in. Fortunately, I brought an eye mask, so that helped. Finally, one has to step up/down about 8 inches to get into and out of the bathroom in our room (Birdfoot Violet). This could be a serious hazard to anyone with even minimal mobility issues. Be aware of cancellation policy. We booked four nights, but had to return home one day early due to a maintenance problem at home, so we lost that last night as they would not refund.
5.0 / 5.0
This inn was charming and conveniently located. But its main draw is the incredible generosity extended to guests. Lovely wine and hors d’oeuvres on the porch. But you could sit on the upstairs porch. Or the sitting upstairs or downstairs. Super helpful checkin information.
And then a breakfast you cannot beat, served with kindness and attention.
I can’t remember being so well treated. Many thanks.

Exploring trip with friend. Great location & service. The reason for 1 star deduction was for 2 things…doors are noisy (expected in old house) & clawfoot tub wasn’t easy to shower in. Having said that, let me sing Heathers praises. From restaurant recommendations to tip on touring Bullington gardens she provided us with good stops. This was my second time staying here & I enjoy the front porch wine/snacks & the made to order breakfast included in room price. I would request a remodeled room next time! If you like B&B’s you won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful big historic home with lots of character. Proximity to downtown Hendersonville was a couple minute walk. The building itself seemed a little on the run down side and it's not due to just the age of the house. Lots of chipped paint, run down carpet and the handy man work done to this old home seem to be done on the cheap. I wouldn't not recommend it, but for the cost I expected better.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Waverly. The location is perfect and the staff are all super friendly. This was our first time staying at a B&B and we are SOLD courtesy of this experience! We will be back!
A few tips for someone like me:
*Make sure you explore the house! They have so many pictures and books to peruse through. It was all very interesting.
*enjoy the rockers on the front porch. They are nice especially when it rains, and are great for meeting new people and having wonderful conversations during the social hour.
*if your knees are an issue, they have stairs of course, but they also have raised bathrooms in the upstairs rooms that I saw. The step up for these is a bit steep.So just be aware or try to get a entry level room.
*get the yogurt parfait at breakfast! It was delicious! The granola was especially good.

So nice to have owner innkeepers at the property. Just like it was back in the day. The location is perfect for exploring Hendersonville and surrounding area. Breakfast is amazing and happy hour is a nice transition before walking down the street to the restaurants. Definitely recommend.

We couldn't have scripted a more pleasant stay! From the lovely breakfast to the evening social time, we enjoyed every bit. Tracy, who could not have been more friendly, and the other fun-loving guests that week really made it special. We especially like the location, which is easy walking distance to the downtown restaurant scene. We would definitely recommend the Waverly Inn to friends and family, and we plan to be back!

Very nice B & B. It does show the wear in places of being built in 1898. Staff was extremely friendly and courteous. The breakfast was delicicious. Only problem is 1898 Waverly Inn is located next to main road and the window and wall insulation did little to dampen the road noise which became an issue when sleeping.

This was our second stay at the Waverly and we will go back again if we go back to Hendersonville. This inn is run very well by the innkeepers. We enjoy visiting with other guests during the social hour on the front porch in the rocking chairs.

The B&B was very charming. And the staff and owners were very friendly, and accommodating. Also the B&B was very centrally located to downtown Hendersonville to walk to shops and restaurants.

The owner took time to talk with us about the history of this home and plans to continue to grow it’s welcoming atmosphere into the future. That is what makes it so much fun to stay at a lovely B&B…front porch conversations.
