Cute B&B. Easy to check in. Great snacks. Walkable area.

We had a great time at the Blind Tiger! Our room was comfy and well appointed, and the decoration and overall vibe of the place were unique and great. We would have loved for the jets in the tub to be actually working, however we realize the description of the room does say soaking tub. But that was a minor thing, highly recommended and will stay here again.

The room was very comfortable with a giant bathroom big shower and tub and the main house was stocked with healthy snacks, fancy beverages, and coffee. Within walking distance to wonderful restaurants and shops in downtown Asheville. We loved using the fireplace.

My wife and I visited Asheville for our anniversary and stayed at The Blind Tiger. It is a wonderful boutique hotel that is beautifully decorated with unique vintage art and furniture. It also is just a short walk from downtown. Would definitely stay here again!

Everybody was very friendly and loved the room. Very old buildings but kept up well. The room we stayed in had a jacuzzi tub, fireplace, and its own entrance from outside and only one room above us in our building. Getting to downtown was an easy 5–10-minute drive. I would recommend this if you are looking for a nice little getaway in Asheville.
