Asheville hotels near Basilica of Saint Lawrence

Cons: One office type chair and one softer chair in the room but not enough comfortable seating even though the room was quite large. We had 3 adults in our room so a small sofa would have been nice or at least one more comfortable chair.

Cons: Grab bars in shower. Shelf to put shampoo etc on in shower. Need towel rack or more hooks to hang big bath towels.

Cons: At times guests were very noisy late at night

Cons: Staff sent us to someone else's room and barely apologized for it. They seemed like it was no big deal when we explained we walked in on someone.

Cons: It seemed as though the laundry facilities two floors below was shaking bed during the spin cycle. Once we called the front desk to let them know, we didn't feel it again the rest of the night. We could also hear the upstairs guests loudly walk across the floor and could hear them talking although they seemed much louder than the average guests.

Cons: Breakfast was good the first day, but NOT good the second.

Cons: We couldnt get in or out of self parking because our card didnt work the entire stay, it was really, really inconvenient because we went out a lot for lunch and dinner. They did credit us the parking fee. This place is definitely not a last minute romantic trip kind of place. You better plan in advance if you want any type of spa services and dinner here. The good thing is, its so close to downtown, there's quite a good amount of restaurants to pick from. Overall, if you are planning to venture out, stay somewhere else. If you plan to fully use the amenities at the resort and stay there most of the time, then it would be worth the money.

Cons: As frugal seniors we wouldn't have chosen the Grove for our 40th wedding anniversary becasue of the cost but our children gave us a two night stay. At $400 per night with an additional $15 a night parking fee and $25 facilities use fee I equated it to the airlines and their charing "extra" fees. My opinon, if I'm paying close to $400 a night and not staying in a major cty, I think parking should be included in the price of the room. The room was one with a moutain view, comfortable and clean but. not the luxury I expected at that price. I may be being picky here but there were just two chairs in the room, the bath had only a shower and one sink. The room, with a king bed, was the style you'd find in any Hilton hotel but with a distant view of the mountains. If you stay here I would recommend a less expensive room and use the saved money to treat yourself to the Spa. We have stayed at the Mohonk Mountain House in NY and for about the same price had a fireplace in the room, trails and climbs on the property and breakfast/dinner included. I also think Monhonk is expensive but I think I'm comparing that inn with the Grove which may be unfair on my part. So my ONLY dislike was the value for the money but for the special occasion and since "the kids" were paying for it, what more can I say?.

Cons: We were in the oldest part of the building, above the lobby, on the 3rd floor. Noise would be my biggest compliant! It was fine in the afternoon when I could hear the piano playing from the lobby -- but at night, after 11:00PM, the restaurants and bars in the hotel need to keep their music lower so that it cannot be heard in the guest rooms. If I ever stay again I will not stay in that part of the hotel. We also had a crying baby next door to us (again after 11:00PM) but that would not be the hotels fault.

Cons: I was very disappointed (and embarrassed, as staying here with a friend was my suggestion) with the room we were given. It had outdated wallpaper and green carpet, and the furniture was pretty beat-up. The bathroom was spacious, but had a tiny pedestal sink with nowhere for any toiletries. We had to keep all makeup, brushes, toothbrushes, etc on the dresser in the room. The bathroom looked like a hospital bathroom. There were 2 dim lamps in the room, with no mirror (except what looked like a medicine cabinet in the bathroom and a full- length mirror on the bathroom door - not helpful without good lighting). Not comfortable accommodations for two girls getting ready for dinner. Thankfully the beds were very comfortable. We spent over $300 for the room, which truthfully wasn't as nice as the La Quinta I stayed at 2 weeks ago. Based on other reviews, I am sure that there are more updated rooms available. I would insist on being assigned one of those. I will definitely be back to enjoy the beauty of the hotel, but will not be staying there again until they make some much needed updates.

Cons: Rooms were just a little tired..but bathroom was updated.

Cons: I tried to upgrade my room to a spa room, it was double the price, but I wanted to experience the spa. The third party booking agent would not allow me to change my reservation even though The Grove Park would. I won't be using Kayak again.

Cons: Nothing to dislike.

Cons: It was a grade lower than when I stayed 10 years ago.

Cons: The rooms vary greatly! This isn't an issue unless they are all over priced. We had 4 rooms last weekend - all around 400$ a night. They were all different sizes because parts of the hotel are different. The room in the old part of the hotel was barely large enough to walk around a queen size bed.

Cons: It was not what was depicted on the Internet. We were deceived and no one seemed to care. It was dirty, small, and not the romantic get a way we had hoped for to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We called to verify that the pool was included. It was but the pictures online were of the spa pool not the fitness club pool which was $140 more. Instead we spent our visit in the fitness pool. Barley luke warm, filled with screaming kids and no hot tub.

Cons: The room was a bit hot at night even after lowering the temperature in the room.

Cons: The "valet" and front parking area is a little clustered but overall its OK

Cons: It's small but you are charged a daily $25 fee for horrible coffee and "internet" which is NOT wifi. If I am going to pay for these extra things, I would expect them to be usable. In the world of smart phones and tablets, who carries a cable to plug into the internet? I have had better perks at a hotel half the price. I really expected more from a resort that is a part of the Omni family.

Cons: WiFi horrible. Over billed at both a restaurant and spa until pointed it out. Facilities seemed run down.

Cons: Only one elevator. A minor inconvenience which perhaps will be addressed in an upcoming renovation.

Cons: Our room faced the lobby. If the curtain was open you can see people checking in and they can see you

Cons: I didn't like how loud the atrium was in the mornings because my balcony did open up to the atrium. Had to pay for breakfast but it was good.

Cons: Wish they had a complimentary breakfast for the price.

Cons: Not a complaint one

Cons: Website said breakfast was included, but found out after arrival that it was not.

Cons: No oatmeal for breakfast. Got Raisin Bran second day after asking for it. Internet very slow! Did not get Holiday Inn points because I booked through you.

Cons: No complaints.

Cons: Card keys were a bit tricky to open the doors with , had to hold it just right.

Cons: I wish we had a week to stay instead of a weekend

Cons: Bed was uncomfortable and the sheets were pretty scratchy. Despite the airconditioning being on full blast, the room was kind of hot and humid.
