Unique and curious stay but I’ll get to the basics first. Impeccably clean, spacious, light-filled and very comfortable. Everything we needed (towels, linens, etc.) Quiet except for some mild traffic sound coming from the nearby highway. No neighbor noises at all. We were on top floor. We came for a very impromptu weekend with our 21-year-old sons and spent most of our time downtown. Convenient access to downtown by car. You can walk around a bit in Biltmore Village but otherwise you need a car to get anywhere else.
Now to the unique and curious part. This condo is in a National Register of Historic Places building and has an amazing history. It’s the former Biltmore Hospital. If you want a fascinating and detailed history I recommend reading the National Register of Historic Places Registration Form available online. https://files.nc.gov/ncdcr/nr/BN1823.pdf
The condo itself is completely modern with very recent finishes so it’s clean and shiny. Tastefully, neutrally decorated. The architecture and spacious layout only made sense after I understood the building’s history and original use. The entry way floor and finishes, staircase and brass bannister are all original. It’s a unique space. The outdoor area is wooded and peaceful.
This would be a great property for a multiple-day family or friends reunion where you wanted to be comfortable in the dwelling and have room to spread out when you aren’t out and about. We didn’t cook there but the kitchen is a good size and would be easy to prepare meals in.
