Whitney's Inn

Our first time here and we will be back. It was clean, well kept and the staff was friendly and helpful. Walkable to Black Mountain. Breakfast available and the Shovel Handle Pub onsite was beautiful and whike we only had apps and drinks which were delicious, all the meals coming out looked amazing

Rooms are the same as on website. Rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, shower felt awesome - had great pressure and it felt like being home. Staff were all pleasant, friendly and informative. Breakfast was good and dinner was excellent. Cocktail was wonderful😊. Plenty of parking. I felt very safe there. I will return.

Beautiful property, close enough to the outlets but not so much that you’re impacted by the traffic. Such a cute, rustic feel in the rooms and lobby area. Only thing I would complain about is the lack of bedside plugs for phones, tablets, etc. only plugs were on the other side of the room unless we unplugged the bedside lights.

The room was small & outdated. The best part was breakfast the next day in the quaint dining room. Food was good as well as service! Cost was good as well! No staff either!

Pretty area. Nice receptionist. Inexpensive for the area but In need of some updating appreciate old style, but the carpet, cracked, peeling linoleum, bedspreads, pillows, just needs updating. Cleanliness 3/5. 1 Curly black hair in both the sink and shower. Not enough Wi-Fi to get the TV to work. Just enough to login and then not strong enough to play anything. Tried several times during stay, never could get enough Wi-Fi strength in our room to watch anything. We picked this place because the pub in the inn looks cool and thought it would be a nice mountain town pub. The pub at this time of year, October, is only open like two days a week, so that was not for us. Overall, it’s not a bad experience, but not comfortable enough that I would return.

There website site photos are so,so, deceiving room are nothing like there photos.They dont tell you the rooms you chose are on the second floor of the Inn! A set of old steep steps, with stair runners that haven't be cleaned since the place was built, parking in front for 3 cars??? But there is parking around back if you want to walk no convenient for seniors citizens, especially the stairs to there second floor rooms corridors dark haven't been painted for years, I never leave bad reviews but this was an exception. Stay away. We left after sitting in this dark brown painted room for 15 minutes just in disbelief. Ended up a the Lodge at jackson village 5 minutes away, were we stood before, thank god they had a couple vacancies. Clean place great parking beautiful grounds. We just wanted to try some place different for a change, never again!!! Just beware, unless you know someone that has stayed there and can tell you something different. Stay away!!°

Our room was small which I knew when I booked. I was not aware the room had pipes hanging down from an already low season and my tall husband almost hit his head a few times. The bed was very tall. I am short and had a hard time getting in the bed. The bed was way too soft and it felt like sleeping on a marshmallow and not it a good way. The outlets were old and we had a hard time finding one were the cords were not too loose. The towels were brown, which we thought was odd. Was that to cover stains? The tissue box was empty and there was only a partial roll of toilet paper. I’m sure we could have asked for more, but I feel like extra should be there if needed. There is only a very small parking lot next to the inn, and it was full when we returned from dinner, so we had to park in another lot on the other side of the pub next to the inn. The pub is only open on weekends, so we had to go out in search of food. The breakfast menu looked nice, but they don’t start serving until 8, and we had to get on the road by 8. Overall, the inn has potential but needs some TLC.

We stayed in the lifeline lodge suit. It was the perfect size for 2 adults & children. Awesome views, friendly staff, reasonable priced.

Only issue was, for some reason, the State room tax wasn't communicated as paid when room was reserved, so got charged for this at checkout, and this took a bit of time to resolve, so was late for an appt. Desk clerk did her best. Great location and clean facility!
