We booked this trip to celebrate our 11th anniversary, and our only requirements were a great location and peaceful setting. We were pleased to find that the 1889 White Gate Inn is owned and run by two excellent hosts who entertained us with stories at social hours and breakfasts, were knowledgeable about the area and dining options, and provided wonderful... more

Our stay at the 1989 Whitegate Inn was a wonderful experience. The property is just stunning--both indoors and out. The gardens are world-class, with spectacular water features and incredibly beautiful plantings. Indoors the decorations are elegant, yet there is a very "homey" feel to the place. We stayed in the Elizabeth Barrett Browning suite, and it was perfect. Very comfortable... more

We really enjoyed our stay at White Gate. The innkeepers and staff are very friendly and accommodating. My husband and I felt very comfortable there during our two-night stay. It was very clean, the gardens are beautiful, and the breakfasts were delicious. more

The Walt Whitman suite is just a magnificent room! We very much appreciated the details of design and convenience. The artwork adds so much to the space along with the gorgeous furnishings. The bath is huge and beautiful. We were sorry we had to leave so early that we missed the breakfast. If we’re ever back in Asheville we’ll book... more

There was a electric fireplace (yes, electric) in the livingroom which gave... more

We found this beautiful B&B's website on the internet and booked a weekend get-a-way from the city. My husband and I had never been to Asheville before, so this was a first. From the moment we drove into the parking lot, the property looked so nice and well, kept. The gardens were beautiful, the staff was extremely kind and helpful.... more

We enjoyed this Inn very much. It is within walking distance of downtown Asheville, so you can leave your car and not have to try and park downtown. The owners and staff were great and will do anything necessary for your comfort and enjoyment. Each day at 9:00 a.m. there is a full three-course breakfast and at 5:30 p.m. there... more

My husband and I wanted to escape for a nice weekend in the mountains and the WhiteGate turned out to be FANTASTIC! We stayed in the Ralph Waldo Emerson suite in the newly renovated Carriage House, and everything was perfect! It is decorated exquisitely, and the bathroom with the jacuzzi tub and separate spa shower was phenomenal. Besides being newly... more
