WHAT THE MEDIA SAYS ABOUT THE GROVE PARK INN RESORT & SPA

“We strolled through a labyrinth of treatment rooms, past the contrast pools of cold and hot water, the steam room and the sauna, until we finally reached a grotto with stone walls and arches and a soaring skylight ceiling. There, one could choose to swim in a cool lap pool, or relax in a warm pool filled with soothing mineral water or a whirlpool continuously replenished by two waterfalls. In the center of this spacious temple to bathing was a fountain with four waterfalls falling from the stones in the walls above. Another whirlpool outdoors overlooked the mountains.” – The New York Times

“We had been told that if we went to Asheville, we shouldn’t miss staying at The Grove Park Inn Resort, a grand lady and a real southern belle without an ounce of snobbery, yet totally self-assured....The Sunset Terrace restaurant is the most spectacular outdoor dining you could imagine. Our lunch there was fabulous as we enjoyed panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.”  –Tampa Bay Magazine

“You don’t really have to die to get to heaven, just drive down Route 40 in this state and stop off at The Grove Park Inn Resort.”  – The (Youngstown, Ohio) Vindicator

“So while curators and historians analyze the Arts and Crafts Movement, its origins, its decline and the current nationwide revival, guests at this historic hotel come to realize that at The Grove Park Inn, the Arts & Crafts Movement never ended.” – North Carolina Architectural Digest

“I have never stayed at a hotel where the service is so genuinely loving and tries so much to please its customers’ every request.” – New Orleans Times-Picayune

“So grand was the view, with approaching sundown casting a golden glow on everything, that we just had to gawk as we walked.... In the future we’ll again arrive before sunset, even if it means stumbling to our table because of the spellbinding view.” –Southern Living

“When in Asheville we knew the only place to stay and play is The Grove Park Inn. One of America’s most treasured golf resorts. The Golf Course at The Grove Park Inn is steeped in as much history and lore as the hotel. Gene Sarazen liked it so much he stopped off on his way to England for the 1929 Ryder Cup.” –Golf World (UK)

“The panorama of the stately Blue Ridge Mountains borders this hospitable haven, which reminds us all of bygone days with its pure turn-of-the-century style.... In the construction of The Grove Park Inn is to be found natural beauty and art coupled with the ingenuity of mankind.” – Elegant Bride
