10/10 Exceptional

Loved my home away from home while visiting Asheville. The property is secluded and feels private but still very walkable to the restaurants and downtown attractions. The staff was just the best- super friendly and shared so many great restaurant and event suggestions. The daily breakfast was so delicious as well- I truly loved my stay here - not enough great things to say!

The staff was delightful and welcoming. Despite a pending ice storm, we were welcomed with open arms and moved to a room with a fireplace in case the electricity went out (it did not!) . My wife and I truly enjoyed our 5 days here.

Very clean rooms and air b and b! Loved our stay great location! Good parking! Room had a fireplace. Jetted tub and multi jetted walk in shower was the best! 10 minutes from The Biltmore and The Packs restaurant. Both are must see for Asheville. Will be back and stay again.

Amazing boutique hotel :)

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 comfortable with a giant bathroom big shower and tub and the main house was stocked with healthy snacks, fancy beverages, and coffee. Within walking distance to wonderful restaurants and shops in downtown Asheville. We loved using the fireplace.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great time at the Blind Tiger! Our room was comfy and well appointed, and the decoration and overall vibe of the place were unique and great. We would have loved for the jets in the tub to be actually working, however we realize the description of the room does say soaking tub. But that was a minor thing, highly recommended and will stay here again.

Blind Tiger thought of everything. I highly recommend and will come back if in the area. room was spacious, clean, quiet and oh so nice and dark! the white robes were a welcome treat as we got caught in a downpour leaving the Biltmore and were soaked. We could walk for dinner which we really love after a day of driving, What a lovely experience

10/10 Exceptional

This was a wonderful stay just under a mile from downtown Asheville, NC. Not only were the staff professional and friendly, but the facilities were well maintained and the public areas were well stocked and accessible. This BnB does all the little things right, and that is the difference between a 4 and 5 star review. We even saw a bear in the gardens outside during our stay, so it was awesome! We had room #1 and though it was a darker room with a moody atmosphere, it was perfect for our romantic getaway. We will definitely consider staying here again or checking out the other Lark properties in future travels.
