Fodor's Expert Review Hilton Garden Inn

309 College St., Asheville, North Carolina, 28801, USA

Hilton brought its midtier brand to downtown Asheville in mid-2016, with all its expected conveniences and one unusual feature: a rooftop patio and bar. It's part of a new mixed-use office and banking complex just east of the city and county government buildings and within walking distance of Pack Square and the heart of downtown. All guest rooms have refrigerators and Wi-Fi, and the decor features contemporary furnishings and artwork by local artists. Additional amenities include a fitness room and outdoor swimming pool.
