Great place to stay in Blowing Rock, best location, walk to all!!! If you’ve been to BR you know parking is a premium! Staff is great too, can’t say enough about this Hotel. Dinners are great as well. We’ve been there before and will be there again… it’s our go to mountain escape!
Very nice property. Have stayed a few times. It was off season so very quiet. Continental breakfast could have been better. Hotel is very well kept and adorable.
Perfect location, excellent service and an amazing chef.

Very clean property. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. Bar and restaurant were excellent. Central to the downtown area with everything an easy walk.
Very nice staff. Super clean. Large room with huge balcony that had a outdoor TV. You can easily walk to everything on main steet. Great shower. The bathroom doors are barn doors and didn't close all the way shut but that would be my only complaint. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel overall and staff was good.
The hotel definitely lacks sound proofing. You hear voices toilets and showers from the rooms above you.
We had a large comfortable room, the extra bed was a full size twin which was great for my 15 year old granddaughter. The food was wonderful and the bartender was a genius mixologist who entertained us with his masterful concoctions along with a great sense of humor! Easy walk to Main Street, we will return!
All the components of a great hotel stay! Excellent staffing, clean room/bathroom, and ideal location with lots of shopping and restaurants! Will definitely visit again!
Our stay at the Embers was top notch. Thomas was absolutely amazing and so very helpful during the snow storm. The dinner was excellent as well. We had goat cheese fritters, Caesar salads and fillet all great. We come to Blowing Rock, NC often and this is our new spot moving forward. Shout out to Ben as well for taking care of us when we arrived.
Excellent property from top to bottom! Beautiful clean hotel with a laidback vibe! The staff warm, friendly and accommodating. The restaurant was wonderful! Right in historic Blowing Rock. Less than 2 miles from the park! We will be staying here again!
