A place to sleep…
The hotel was clean, the service was good. You can see signs of age and neglect in the general maintenance, but is a nice functional place to stay.

Great snow ski trip stay.
Nice clean room that has been remodeled and updated. Beds were comfortable but the pillows not so much. The front staff were polite and helpful. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

New Year's Eve in Banner Elk
Very well located hotel close to everything. Good service. Pets allowed. We stayed here twice as a family. In my opinion, the only thing that could be improved would be more breakfast options, especially for children.

We arrived late after a full day on the slopes and check-in was a breeze everyone was very nice. We met 2 ladies sitting in the lobby who were still staying there from hurricane Helene. Amazing hospitality and love towards those affected by the storm. Will stay again!
