positive:
Amazing breakfasts.
The bed-and-breakfast emphasis of North Lodge on Oakland truly shines through in the quality and scope of the breakfasts, which are served in three courses and tend to feature a wide array of home-cooked foods. They offer both cold and hot choices, and are always supplemented by tea, cider, and other drinks.
positive:
Inspiring garden grounds.
The grounds of North Lodge on Oakland are carefully manicured and cultivated to provide a warm, relaxing spot for you and your fellow guests. The gazebo area, various seating arrangements, and wide expanses of green grass are a perfect place to spend a lazy afternoon in Asheville.
positive:
Southern hospitality.
The hosts of North Lodge on Oakland are both warm and caring, and will go to great lengths to ensure that you have everything you need for your stay. The personal nature of the business cuts out much of the guesswork involved with larger chains or massive reservation databases.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Occasionally spotty Wi-Fi.
Although it's a relatively minor issue, at times the Wi-Fi can be less than reliable. This is a common occurrence at most hotels, so if it's truly a hassle, you can seek out a wired connection or rely on mobile data until the Wi-Fi is at full strength again.
negative:
A distant walk to Asheville.
Getting to the center of Asheville will generally require a car, unless you feel like walking for long stretches of time and distance. Consider either taking your own vehicle or using a taxi, although the former may be cheaper due to the lodge's free parking.
negative:
No issues reported.
So far, no recent negative opinion has been expressed by guests about this hotel.
