Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination
Would not recommend! I reserved a non smoking room. When I arrived they gave me a smoking room. I was told nothing could be done. It was overpriced and my reservation was not accurate. They also did not have hot water. Very disappointing stay

Moxy Asheville Downtown
First time at Moxy Asheville and we’ll definitely be back! Great value for the quality of the hotel. Room and common areas were spotless, staff was amazing, they upgraded us to a better view in our room for our special occasion. Rooftop bar is beautiful with great nighttime stargazing views. ...

Swiss Mountain Village
This was a super cute place, set along a quaint pond. We arrived late but check in materials were set out for us. Our chalet was cozy and well appointed. We appreciated having the laundry in the unit. We were only there for one night, but I feel this would be a better option for a longer stay.
