We have recently returned from the USA and one of the places we chose to visit was Asheville. We have never used B & B accomodation before, as we normally rent villa style acomodation for holidays and we were very impressed. The owners of The Lion and the Rose are friendly, extremely helpful and always available to answer any queries.... more

Linda & Jim at the Lion & the Rose are the ultimate hosts serving your every need from directions, recommendations, service, snacks and the best breakfast I have ever had at a B & B. They have paid attention to every detail from cleanliness to decorating. Wow the linens were great. Internet worked great. The large suite was perfect for... more

My husband I returned to Asheville earlier this month and there was no doubt where we seek lodging. It had to be The Lion and The Rose. In all of our travels we have never felt the warmth or received the hospitality that we receive from Jim and Linda. They are both interested in their guests and dedicated to providing... more

My husband and I recently chose Asheville, NC as a destination to celebrate our anniversary. We reserved a beautiful suite at The Lion and the Rose Bed and Breakfast in the Montford Historical District of Asheville. The inn is a fabulous Victorian home, decorated with lovely antiques. The innkeepers are personable and truly love serving their guests. The inn features... more

I do not know if we caught them on an "off" weekend given most of the posts here seem to be very positive of the owners. However, we found them to be very rude. I liked the location and rooms a lot. We stayed in the large one all the way upstairs. However, surroundings cannot supercede rudeness! Many other great... more

Linda Palmer, Owner & Manager

My husband and I are extremely upset about this review and question it's validity. In our six years at the Lion & Rose and throughout our 30 year careers in public service, we have never been described as rude. We also find it odd that this reviewer supposedly stayed at our inn in October and is just now, five months...

The LIon & Rose is operated by a lovely couple that cares greatly about the bed and breakfast they have established. Clean, Clean, Clean and frunished just the way a bed and breakfast should feel. The LIon & Rose was very accurate with their internet pictures and all the rooms have a high standard of comfort. You feel the warmth... more

This was our first time at The Lion and the Rose, and it's a keeper! The innkeepers, Jim and Linda, were very friendly and made awesome breakfasts (the menu for our stay of three nights was Belgian waffles with banana rum syrup and bacon, ham crepes with Parmasan couscous baked tomato, and oatmeal cookie pancakes loaded with fruit and link... more

This B&B should be the example for all. The home was historic and lovely in a convenient location to downtown Asheville. The suite not only met expectations, but also exceeded them. It is HUGE! There was an entire sitting room we never even used. It is highly undersold on their website and would be more than comfortable for any extended... more

This vintage B&B is awesome! From the antiques to the design sense to the incredible breakfats we loved our stay here. The coouple who runs this establishment suited all of our needs and were extremely attentive. We loved going out into Ashville for dinner (specifcally The Lobster Trap - where we had the best Lobster Bisque ever) and returning to... more

Our second stay, the first stay was 16 years ago (different owners) and it was great. Breakfast was awesome and different each day. Room was extremely comfortable, we had the 3rd floor suite for the last 2 nights and that was great. Loved the fireplace and the big tub. Owners were great and made superb local recommendations for dinner. Loved... more
