The Old Edwards Inn is a special retreat for a getaway. Very cozy and upscale vibe that is a welcome change from larger properties. Service and facilities were top notch.

We live 90 minutes away in Hendersonville, NC. Was looking for a special place to celebrate my wife’s birthday. We came for one night. It was perfect from start to finish. The hotel’s public spaces are beautiful, the grounds are well maintained and thoughtfully designed. We had lunch at their pizza restaurant and it was delicious pizza. My wife had an 80 minute massage, which she raved about. We stayed in the Lee King Suite, which was spacious and amazing. Also, an aside, it may have the best shower I have ever had!! We finished the evening with drinks at the bar, followed by dinner at Madison’s. All perfect. Great food, great setting!!! We came just at the beginning of the season and it was our first visit to the hotel and the Highlands area. We plan on coming back in season next time and get the full environment and beauty the area provides!!

Spent my wife's birthday in Highlands, NC. The staff addressed her at each location with "happy Birthday"

The hotel is nice, the dining staff is fabulous but the management team is awful. The combative over the smallest of little issues that get brought up. Stay elsewhere but dine here for sure — interesting given that they aren’t even on-site but in a different state.

We stayed 1 night for a birthday celebration. Furnishings in room a bit tired, Bed very soft, Newly remodeled bathroom w/walk-in shower and heated floors. Food at restaurant Madison good. Hotel staff and wait staff at restaurant good. The hotel had numerous trainee staff working w/regulars to learn the ropes.
