The hype
Travelers rave about the friendly staff and the 'spotless' modern rooms, but many find the price tag steep for the room size.
Kimpton Hotel Arras
$300-500/ éjszaka
Foglaljon ezt, ha You want the most pet-friendly luxury stay in Asheville with killer mountain views and a location that's walkable to literally everything.
Miért szeretik az emberek
- Zero pet fees and no size restrictions (bring your Great Dane)
- Floor-to-ceiling windows in a former bank tower offer the best views in town
- Free 'Mini Me' milk fridges delivered on demand for nursing parents
Gyors áttekintés: It's the tallest building in Asheville, which means unbeatable views but also no escaping the downtown siren soundtrack if you're on a low floor.
Értékelte @nycyorkiegirls: I took my Yorkies to Kimpton Hotel Arras and we were obsessed! From the custom dog treats at check-in to doing yoga with a city view, everything was perfect. They even let the pups hang out at the bar with me. Definitely the most dog-friendly luxury spot in Asheville.

Reality check
The 'City View' rooms often just look at other buildings and come with more street noise; you really need to pay for the 'Mountain View' to get the experience you see on Instagram.
- You are traveling with a dog (or two)
- You appreciate modern, art-forward design over historic stuffiness
- You want to walk to 20+ breweries and restaurants without needing an Uber

Foglalás előtt
Jó tudni
- The $20 daily amenity fee credit works at Bargello or District 42—use it or lose it.
- Elevators are 'destination dispatch' (scan key, it tells you which car to take), which confuses first-timers.
- Check the Kimpton social media for the current 'Secret Password' (e.g., 'The Life of a Kimpton Guest') to get a free perk at check-in.
Mit csomagoljak be
- Earplugs if you end up on a lower floor
- Walking shoes—Asheville is hilly but very walkable from here
- Your dog's favorite toy (though they provide beds and bowls)

“I would love to request a high-floor room (10th floor or higher) facing the mountains to minimize street noise. If a Corner King is available, that would be my top choice.”
GYIK és rejtett tippek
Minden, amit tényleg tudni szeretnél a foglalás előtt.
Is it really dog friendly?
Yes, genuinely. No fees, no size limits, no breed restrictions. They even have a 'Director of Pet Relations' dog on site.
Is breakfast included?
No. It's a la carte at Bargello. However, you can use your $20 daily amenity fee credit toward it.
How much is parking?
Valet is approximately $32/night. There are public garages nearby (like the Rankin Ave garage) if you want to self-park and walk, but it's a hassle with luggage.
Does the hotel have a pool?
No pool. If you need a swim, this isn't the spot.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a well-equipped fitness center with Peloton bikes and free weights.
What is the 'Secret Password'?
It changes seasonally (e.g., 'The Life of a Kimpton Guest' for Winter 2025). Say it at check-in for a prize like free parking or a drink voucher.
Insider tippek
- ✨
Ask for the 'Mini Me Milk Fridge' if you're nursing—it's a dedicated breast milk storage fridge delivered free to your room.
- ✨
The hotel offers free guided art tours of their local collection—ask the front desk for the schedule.
- ✨
Bargello's pizza is wood-fired and excellent; don't overlook it just because it's a 'hotel restaurant'.
