Black Walnut B&B Inn

Peaceful, Historic Charm Just Minutes From Asheville's Music Scene

Black Walnut B&B Inn is a beautifully restored, adults-only bed and breakfast located in Asheville’s historic Montford neighborhood. Just a short ride from downtown, this elegant inn blends classic Southern hospitality with modern comforts like free WiFi and air-conditioned rooms. Surrounded by gardens and cozy communal spaces, it's a serene base for music lovers exploring Asheville's vibrant live scene.

Why Concert-goers love it

Despite its tranquil vibe, the Black Walnut B&B Inn is just minutes from downtown Asheville and key venues like Harrah's Cherokee Center. You’ll appreciate the quiet location when it’s time to wind down after a high-energy show. Free parking makes it easy to come and go, and its proximity to late-night rideshare routes means no worries about getting back safely. The 3 PM check-in and 11 AM checkout offer a bit of flexibility for concert nights.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Couples making a romantic music weekend out of it
• Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime gig
• Fans wanting a peaceful retreat after the encore
• Budget-conscious guests who still want charm and style

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full restaurant, the inn offers a snack bar for quick bites and many highly rated eateries are within walking or short driving distance. You’ll also find a kitchenette in select rooms, perfect for late-night leftovers or pre-show snacks. A delicious breakfast is typically served in the morning — ideal after a late night.

Nightlife Options

Though the inn itself is more about quiet charm than nightlife, you’re just a short hop from Asheville’s bustling downtown, where you’ll find craft breweries, cocktail lounges, and even live music spots to keep the vibe going. If you prefer to stay in, the peaceful garden terrace is the perfect place to unwind.

What People Say

Guests rave about the welcoming hosts, immaculate rooms, and the inn’s peaceful, historic atmosphere. Many highlight how close it is to Asheville attractions without feeling touristy. The location, charm, and cleanliness consistently earn high marks.

Areas for Improvement

If you're looking for a party vibe or on-site nightlife, this might not be your scene. Also, since it's a bed and breakfast, there’s no 24/7 front desk or full restaurant — but that’s part of the charm for many.

The Bottom Line

Black Walnut B&B Inn is ideal for concert-goers who want a quiet, character-filled retreat close to Asheville’s best music venues.
