The Spotlight on Aloft - Asheville Downtown

Stylish Downtown Asheville Stay with Music at Its Heart

Modern, upbeat, and perfectly located, Aloft - Asheville Downtown puts you right in the center of Asheville’s vibrant music and arts scene. With sleek rooms, colorful decor, and walkable access to top venues and breweries, this hotel blends city energy with relaxed mountain charm. Whether you're here to catch a sold-out show or explore Asheville's buzzing nightlife, Aloft gives you the perfect base.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and Aloft nails it. You're just a 2-minute walk to The Orange Peel and under 15 minutes to other top venues like the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium. After the encore, it's an easy stroll back to the hotel. The 24-hour reception and free Wi-Fi make post-show wind-downs a breeze. Plus, the hotel’s lively social vibe means the night doesn’t have to end when the music does.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a fun, central crash pad
  • Solo travelers chasing that once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who want a peaceful view of the mountains after the crowd
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who appreciate comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

The onsite w xyz bar serves up light bites like flatbreads and tapas—perfect for a pre-show snack or late-night nibble. For quick grabs, the re:fuel gourmet pantry has sandwiches, salads, and other portable eats. While 24/7 room service isn’t offered, there’s no shortage of nearby restaurants and cafes within a short walk. And yes, you can sleep in—breakfast is available after your late night out.

Nightlife Options

You’re right in the middle of Asheville’s nightlife scene, with over a dozen craft breweries just a 6-minute walk away. The hotel’s own bar is a cool place to start or end your evening, often featuring local beers and wines. Whether you’re into live music, chill lounges, or busy bars, you’ll find the vibe you’re looking for just steps away.

What People Say

Guests rave about the location and walkability, especially for concerts and brewery hopping. Rooms with city or mountain views are a favorite, and travelers love the clean, modern design. The staff gets high marks for being friendly and helpful, especially with tips on where to go after the show.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that street noise can be noticeable on weekends—though that’s often the trade-off for being in the heart of the action. The hotel doesn’t offer traditional room service, but with so many late-night spots nearby, you’re unlikely to go hungry.

The Bottom Line

If you want to stay steps from Asheville’s top music venues in a stylish, energetic hotel, Aloft - Asheville Downtown is a standout choice for concert-goers.

Chris, Charlotte

Food was excellent, room and view were stellar. Temperature was perfect, clean and well set up room. Quiet and friendly staff. Parking fees almost free. Great location, perfect for a show at the Peel. Will be back but I'll imbibe elsewhere.

Liked: A refreshing change, staying in the room was part of a great trip not just a necessity.
Disliked: Bartender was a bit snooty, better be a hipster to get noticed.

The hotel was beautiful and...

Liked: The location of the hotel was amazing. There was parking. You do have to pay $20 a day for that, but it was worth it. Parking in downtown Asheville is not easy. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The room was very clean. Our room was upgraded to a view of the mountains when we got there. We did not ask for that, but they did that for us. The staff was very nice and friendly there. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
