Frommer's Review

This is the moderately priced choice at Asheville's premier resort. The food is not as good as at Horizons , but the prices are more affordable, and you get excellent quality and generous helpings. The view of the Blue Ridge Mountains alone is worth the trip here. This longtime family favorite is an Asheville tradition, known for its sumptuous international buffet tables laden with many "plantation extras." Omelets and waffles are on the buffet at breakfast. The Friday-night seafood buffet and Saturday prime-rib buffet are so popular with locals that early reservations are recommended. Sunday brunch is Asheville's best, and it's usually packed.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
