    My husband and I love Asheville and always try to stay near downtown. The Inn is just a short walk to nearby restaurants and shopping, and LaDonna is very knowledgeable about the local options, as well as hiking in and around the area. Our cottage was spacious, lovely and most comfortable, and as this was a romantic weekend, the separation from the main house was ideal. Extra good coffee in the mornings, and breakfast was quite good both days. We'll definitely stay again.

    We recently stayed at the inn and had a most pleasant time in the area. It is within walking distance to downtown but still about 1/2 mile. The rooms are quite comfortable and clean. They are stocked with all the amenities one would expect in a quality B&B. The staff is most pleasant and ready to help. This was our first time staying in Asheville. DO follow to LaDonna's recommendations for dining. She is spot on. Bottom line when in the area WE WILL SURELY STAY THERE AGAIN.

    My husband and I have just returned home after a restful 3 days at the Chestnut Street Inn. The room's decor was tastefully done only to be outdone by the comfortable bed. Innkeeper Ladonna Lasko was attentive to our every need.She made several suggestions to places to visit all within walking distances to shops and restaurants. You could also purchase tickets for places like the Biltmore Inn or trolly tours at a discount from the Inn The breakfasts were great and not just your every day eggs or cereal. We hope to return again in the spring
