The place was just alright. Modern and newly built. Self parking lot was convenient and made arrival and departure very easy. Nice little dining/bar area with a fireplace. Coffee and tea provided in the morning. Breakfast was offered. They do advertise a restaurant but the menu was small and not impressive. This hotel is advertised as one of the highest end options in town. Yes, the hotel seems new. Adequate for a short stay to check out the town and close enough to Boone to drive there when needed. I don't think I will stay here again but glad I gave it a try.

Great Stay!

The high ratings on most travel sites for the Embers are well deserved. We found the hotel to be very clean. Ben and Thomas at the front desk were both very courteous and helpful. The only negative was jackhammering in the middle of one night by the NC DOT. But that’s not the hotels fault of course. The restaurant on site is excellent as well as the service. Will be returning!
