The Spotlight on Haywood Park Hotel Ascend Hotel Collection

Classic Charm in the Heart of Asheville


Haywood Park Hotel Ascend Hotel Collection blends historic elegance with modern comfort right in the center of downtown Asheville. This boutique hotel is housed in a former department store and offers spacious, suite-style accommodations with upscale touches like spa baths, seating areas, and complimentary champagne on arrival. With top attractions and music venues just steps away, it's the ideal base for a music-filled weekend.

Why Concert-goers love it


Concert fans love the walkable location—just a 5-minute stroll to the Asheville Civic Center. The hotel’s central downtown spot means you’re close to both major venues and smaller live music bars. After the show, head back to a quiet, comfortable suite, and enjoy free WiFi for your post-show recap. With concierge and bell service, late-night returns are a breeze. And if you’re arriving early or leaving late, the staff is great about luggage storage and flexible options.

Who this Hotel is great for


  • Groups of friends looking for roomy suites with space to hang out before or after a show
  • Solo travelers catching a favorite tour stop
  • Couples planning a romantic concert weekend with a touch of luxury
  • Fans craving quiet and comfort after a loud night out
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want upscale amenities and a free breakfast

Food and Drink Options


Start your day with a complimentary breakfast at Haywood Park Cafe, or grab a locally inspired bite at Isa's French Bistro, featuring seasonal dishes with fresh produce. While 24/7 room service isn’t on offer, the central location means late-night dining options are just around the corner, and your in-room Keurig coffee maker has your morning covered.

Nightlife Options


You’re in the heart of Asheville’s thriving bar and music scene. From craft breweries and rooftop lounges to cozy venues with live local acts, there’s something for every vibe. The hotel itself is more about relaxation than raucous nightlife, but that makes it perfect for winding down after an energetic show.

What People Say


Guests rave about the spacious rooms, friendly staff, and ideal downtown location. Many love the vintage character of the building and the unexpected touches like arrival champagne. The frequent highlight: it’s quiet at night despite being in the middle of the action.

Areas for Improvement


While the hotel has tons of charm, some guests note that the décor leans more toward classic than modern. On busy weekends, parking can be a bit tight, so plan ahead if you're driving.

The Bottom Line


For concert-goers wanting a central, stylish, and surprisingly quiet place to crash after the show, Haywood Park Hotel delivers with personality and comfort.

Fancy hotel for an inexpensive...

Liked: The room was huge! Very clean and comfortable. Loved the 2 separate sink areas with one having a bench for easy makeup application. The hotel did a great job incorporating elements from the original department stores. Right in the middle of town, easy walk to everything. Nice bar at the back of the hotel.
Disliked: Slightly disappointed that the restaurant wasn’t open on the days we were there. Wasn’t aware prior to visit that there was an extra charge with the valet parking, but the service was great!
