My wife and I enjoyed another great visit to Hendersonville and the Waverly Inn. The downtown location is fantastic to take advantage of the main street attractions. The breakfast is amazing. The front porch is the place to be for a relaxing evening. We look forward to our next visit.

We only stayed for one night but enjoyed the hospitality and the evening Happy Hour. Rooms were excellent. We didn’t get a chance to have breakfast because we were leaving early, but the staff prepared a parfait for us in the morning. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and upstairs balcony.

Perfect stay!

Wr just had a wonderful one-night stay the 1898 Waverly Inn and look forward to coming back. The inn was beautiful, our room couldn't have been more comfortable and the hospitality was amongst the best we've experienced anywhere! You also could not want a better location in downtown Hendersonville - quiet and away from the fray yet a quick walk to shops and restaurants. Can't recommend highly enough.

I gave it a good review because the staff was so nice and the place is clean and cute however our bedroom I think it was called Spring room, was not very functional. There was nowhere to sit but on the bed and on one hard old wooden chair. Couldn't get the TV to work said no signal, no matter what we did and there really wasn't many surfaces to put stuff on. The bed was okay but the pillows weren't comfortable so didn't have a very good sleep and at 6:00 something in the morning, a road crew was out front and it sounded like they were going to drive through the room so it wasn't a very relaxing experience. The breakfast was just okay even though I could tell they really put their heart into it. Very nice people. I personally wouldn't stay there again, but I think others would enjoy it...maybe in a better room.

The room was exceptionally clean -- no dust even in high places. Comfortable lodging. The closet was ridiculously small however. Breakfasts were very good. And every member of the staff we interacted with was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the afternoon wine and cheese. Located very close to shops and restaurants downtown.
