Unique, owner-run historic hotel just steps away from downtown Hendersonville. Each room features cheerful, eclectic decor. Delicious on-site dining options for chef-prepared daily breakfast plus dinner service several nights a week. The owners/hosts provide an artsy, cozy vibe that is harmonious with the overall atmosphere of the town. Hendersonville aka Hendo has a long, colorful history of being a travel destination and the area is noteworthy for its professional innkeeping traditions.

The home and room were nice and clean, but the cycling on and off of the AC and the street traffic from being on the front of the house didn't allow for much sleep. While we realize the house is old, the water lines need updating so pressure is sustained - if another room was showering or flushing you all but lost water pressure.
Do not recommend for people with cat allergies or aversions as cats are given free range of the outdoor area, porch and downstairs. Should we stay again we will request a room on the back side of the house and see if that's more suitable. Still, we give it four stars overall for the cleanliness and convenient location to main street activities.

Historic property with wonderful hosts.
Hosts were wonderful… the historic property was a little tired, but that’s understandable and added to the charm.
Very convenient to Main Street. Make sure to book the evening meal at the hotel.. it’s excellent.

Quaint B&B
The Henderson is quaint and filled with fun old movie decor. We loved sitting out on the porch. The beds are a bit teeny as the building is old and not set for bigger beds.
The breakfasts were wonderful!

The hotel is historic, cozy, well maintained. The location is great, walking distance to shops and restaurants. The owners were delightful, easy to talk with, helpful. Michael, the chef, is amazing! Creative. The breakfasts and dinners were scrumptious and beautifully presented. You'll be glad you stayed and ate here.

The Henderson is a very charming and rustic place to stay. It is in a great location and is very convienent to the local shops, restaurants and pubs. The host and staff are very friendly and accommodating. They provide two choices for breakfast each morning. The meals are delicious. We plan on making the Henderson our play to stay when visiting my hometown of Hendersonville, NC.

It's over 100-years old and has a lot of original, unique features that are very cool. Air conditioning is in the bedrooms (thank heavens) and kept the rooms very nice. The halls and all can feel a bit muggy on a hot day, but overall, outstanding and wonderful.

A friendly place to stay
Proprietor Jeane was fantastic. She is friendly and provided outstanding service. The inn has a good vibe - relaxed and comfortable like you’re visiting family or friends. It’s a bit noisy due to creaky floors and street noise heard thru the windows but it’s sort of expected for a century old bldg. Breakfast was delicious.

The property owners were super nice. The food was very good. The place was old and creeky, but had some charm. Our room was small to say the least, and only had a tiny rocker to sit in and it was creeky too. We were two people and needed two chairs. The rooms were not worth what we paid and probably would not stay there again for that reason.

Stayed in an eclectic piece of history!
Our most enjoyable B&B stay yet! Why?
The couple who own it were exceptionally welcoming.
One short block puts you in the center of everything.
The property is over 100 years old. The creaking floor boards and stairs took us back to another time.
The decor(ations) are impossible to walk by without stopping to look at. Especially the photos/posters.
The price is excellent!
Yes, our room was small but you can upgrade. We still had plenty of room.
The owner is an accomplished chef and the restaurant on site is top quality.
The cocktail hour is pleasant in the cozy living room areas.
I would describe the property as more bohemian than elegant. Definitely shows it's age, but that's what gives it it's appeal!
We're going back and I hope you will give it a try. We had our trepidations going in, but left planning to return on each trip.

This was our first time staying at the Henderson Inn, but it won't be our last. The location gives easy access to the downtown area shops, restaurants and activities. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. It's an older building so there are some nuances that come with that but nothing that would keep us from going back.
