When it comes to hotels, I have never had a less-than-stellar experience at a Kimpton. This is our third stay at Asheville's Kimpton Arras, and -- as usual -- it did not disappoint. It's location is precisely the center of downtown, making it an ideal place to stay in the city, and the valet service is second-to-none, always quickly and kindly taking care of any vehicle retrieval that is needed. The room is lovely, and it was probably the most affordable one in the building. You can't go wrong, with any room you book, at the Kimpton. We'll be back!
