The Spotlight on Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Asheville River Arts District

Comfort, Convenience & Concert-Ready Vibes in Asheville

Modern yet cozy, the Country Inn & Suites by Radisson Asheville River Arts District blends Southern hospitality with practical amenities—all within easy reach of downtown Asheville's top music venues. Nestled just over a mile from the city center and near the vibrant River Arts District, this hotel offers a laid-back retreat with thoughtful touches like a heated indoor pool, fitness center, and free hot breakfast.

Why Concert-goers love it

With free shuttle service to and from select downtown Asheville drop-off points, getting to your show is easy—no rideshare stress or parking fees. After the encore, head back to a quiet room outfitted with Beekman 1802 toiletries, a comfy bed, and a flat-screen TV for winding down. The flexible 12:00 PM checkout lets you sleep in post-show, and the location keeps you close to the music without being in the middle of late-night party noise.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a budget-friendly, convenient base
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples wanting a low-key weekend near Asheville’s eclectic venues
  • Fans who want a peaceful place to recharge post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and style

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a hearty hot breakfast each morning, including Belgian waffles, eggs, fruit, and fresh coffee—perfect after a late night. Several walkable dining spots and local breweries are just a short drive or shuttle ride away, making late-night bites easy to find.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself leans quiet, you're just minutes from Asheville's buzzing downtown, home to live music bars, craft breweries, and local lounges. Whether you're into rooftop cocktails or intimate acoustic sets, there’s something nearby for every music fan.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, spacious rooms, friendly staff, and convenient location. Many mention the free shuttle as a game-changer for getting to concerts or breweries. The indoor pool and fitness center also get high marks for being well-maintained.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviews note that the hotel can get busy during peak weekends, so breakfast seating may be limited. The location, while close to downtown, isn’t quite walkable for everyone—so the shuttle or a car comes in handy.

The Bottom Line

A smart, affordable choice for music lovers who want comfort, convenience, and just enough distance from the noise to truly relax after the show.

Booking.com screwed up. Hotel was...

Liked: Everything provided by the hotel, especially the breakfasts, was wonderful. The place was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. However the services provided by booking.com were not good. My payment to the hotel via booking.com wasn't sent on to the hotel. I had reserved a room with disabled access and that was not communicated to the hotel either.
Disliked: See above. All the things I didn't like were booking.com issues.

Very good

Liked: The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We booked online because it said pet friendly but when we got there we found out it was only dog friendly but they let us stay with our cats thankfully. The room was a good size, bigger than we were expecting.
Disliked: The only thing I didn't like was the location. It's not in the best area. We had an issue while bringing our luggage in where two women came in trying to get into someone's room but gave the wrong name, not sure why they were really there, but the cops had to be called and they also tried to get into the car of the lady working the front desk. Second thing, but only a minor inconvenience was it advertised an indoor heated pool but the pool itself wasn't heated just the room it was in. Other than that the room was nice, spacious and we slept comfortably. Although I will add the shower was a walk in (nice and all) but the door to the shower was only one panel of glass to block the water from spraying on the floor so it didn't hold the warm air in very well.

Not happy with bathroom facilities.

Liked: It was clean, semi comfortable.
Disliked: I had asked for a shower chair did not accommodate. No bars in the bathroom. Toilet was about 12 inches from the floor. My 89 year old mom had to be helped to sit and stand to use the toilet. We were to be there for 3 nights but because of the bathroom not being accommodating we left the next morning we asked during the night if they had an opening for a handicapped room they did not so we left on Aug 2nd. I learned make sure you ask for a handicapped room when traveling with an elderly person. So glad I took out insurance praying I get a refund of the other 2 nights.
