“This hotel strikes me as a particularly appealing base for exploring Blowing Rock. Its location allows for strolls to downtown shops and restaurants, and the chef-driven restaurant on-site could be a real draw. The thoughtfully designed suites, each with a balcony, seem to offer a comfortable perch for enjoying the mountain scenery.”
