Cedar Crest Inn

The Closest Inn to the Biltmore Estate

Cedar Crest Inn, a grand Queen Anne Victorian mansion built in 1891, is the closest inn to the Biltmore Estate, just three blocks away. This historic treasure, originally known as "Swannanoa Hill," was crafted by the same artisans who worked on the Biltmore House, making it a true architectural companion to Asheville's most famous landmark. Nestled on nearly four acres of landscaped grounds, the estate includes three distinct accommodations: the Main House, Carriage House, and Guest Cottage, each offering a unique blend of period charm and modern comfort.

With its exquisite woodwork, grand fireplaces, and stained glass windows, Cedar Crest Inn exudes Victorian elegance. Guests are treated to a delicious two-course homemade breakfast, which can be enjoyed on the expansive veranda or beside a cozy fireplace, setting the tone for a perfect day of exploring Asheville.

As Asheville's longest-running bed and breakfast, Cedar Crest Inn provides not only an unmatched location but also a welcoming atmosphere where history and luxury meet. Complimentary Wi-Fi, wine, breakfast, late check-out, and parking are all part of the inviting experience at this charming inn.
