Our stay at the Crowne Plaza Resort in Asheville was truly fantastic. The property is extensive, offering loads of activities and beautiful spaces to relax. The staff went above and beyond, making our visit memorable, and the breakfast was simply the best we have experienced on our travels. However, getting to our room involved navigating through some construction, and I wish there were more dining options available for dinner.

The Crowne Plaza Hotel and Resort offers a delightful stay with spacious properties and friendly staff who genuinely care about guest experiences. I particularly enjoyed the high variety and quality of the breakfast, as well as the plethora of activities available on-site. However, it seems that areas of maintenance are needed, with some aspects feeling a bit outdated, and the slow elevator was a minor inconvenience. Overall, it’s a great spot to unwind and enjoy Asheville.
