The Spotlight on Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Asheville Tunnel Road

Comfort and Convenience Close to Asheville’s Music Scene

Modern and inviting, the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Asheville Tunnel Road blends comfort, functionality, and a prime location just outside downtown Asheville. With easy access to some of the city’s best music venues and breweries, this hotel is a smart base for concert-goers looking for a clean, quiet place to rest between shows. The vibe is friendly and relaxed, with thoughtful amenities like free WiFi, a business center, and a cozy indoor pool — perfect for winding down after a night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

Set just a short drive from Asheville’s most popular concert spots — including breweries known for live music and local venues downtown — this hotel offers easy late-night returns without the traffic headaches. The neighborhood is calm, making it a great option for those who want to sleep soundly post-show. Reception staff is helpful with local tips and transport options, and with a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, the timing works well for late nights.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking to explore Asheville’s music and brewery scene
- Solo travelers catching a dream concert
- Couples turning a show into a weekend getaway
- Fans who want a quiet spot to recover after a loud night
- Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and reliability

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no full-service restaurant on-site, the hotel serves a free American breakfast daily — perfect for those late morning starts after a long night. The location puts you within minutes of top local breweries and eateries, many of which offer late-night bites. For snacks or quick cravings, the hotel has convenient options available in the lobby.

Nightlife Options

You're just a few miles from Asheville’s lively downtown, home to live music bars, craft breweries, and late-night lounges. Popular spots like Green Man Brewery and Wicked Weed Brewing are nearby, offering both tunes and taps. While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, it’s a great launchpad for exploring Asheville’s nightlife.

What People Say

Guests love the clean rooms, friendly staff, and peaceful location just outside of the downtown bustle. Many mention the easy drive to concert venues and breweries, and appreciate the value for money compared to staying in the city center. The indoor pool is a hit with guests looking to relax, and the breakfast gets solid marks for variety and convenience.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that it's not quite walking distance to the heart of downtown, so having a car or using rideshare apps is helpful. A few wish there were more dining options directly on-site for late-night cravings, but the nearby restaurants make up for it.

The Bottom Line

The Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Asheville Tunnel Road is a smart, affordable pick for concert-goers who want comfort, peace, and quick access to Asheville’s vibrant music scene.

Overall Good Stay

Liked: Had no issues with the room. It appeared to be clean and fresh smelling. The breakfast is what most hotels are serving these days, fruit, breads, waffles, pastries, some type of sausage patties, and the usual coffee, tea, and fruit beverages.
Disliked: While the check-in desk person was pleasant during the check-in process, she indicated that she upgraded our room, of which, I thought was complimentary, (I thought nothing of her comment since I've had complimentary room upgrades before) since I DID NOT request an upgrade. When I reviewed my bill, I was charged approximately an additional $20. This is not a good nor ethical practice for a hotel to do unless it's complimentary or unless the hotel guest has specifically requested an upgrade. If it wasn't for this one instance that made me a little disturbed, my stay would have been great. One other note: Since Ashville is still recovering from the 2024 hurricane, this area did not have many places open for business, i.e. restaurants, etc.
