Welcome Back to Asheville

The resilient spirit of Appalachia is shining brighter than ever. After the challenges of Hurricane Helene, Asheville is ready to welcome you back with open arms, open doors, and the kind of hospitality that defines our community.
Almost all of downtown Asheville is open for business, and the area’s vibrant culture is thriving. Shops, galleries, studios, and restaurants are back to creating and serving. Nearby, the towns of Weaverville and Black Mountain are bustling, and iconic destinations like the Biltmore Estate are once again welcoming guests to experience the holiday magic.
For the latest updates, including a full list of open businesses, visit Explore Asheville. 

Your Stay at The Flat Iron Hotel

At The Flat Iron Hotel, we’re here to ensure your visit is seamless, comfortable, and full of heart as we reopen our doors starting Friday, November 22. Here are a few things to know as you plan your stay:
Parking: Valet service is currently available Friday through Sunday morning. We also recommend parking at Wall Street Garage, conveniently located nearby at 45 Wall St.
Dining: Luminosa, our signature wood-fired Italian eatery, is open for dinner nightly. Our caffé will resume service shortly, but you’ll still find our passion for food and community alive in every meal.
Rooftop: The Rooftop patio is open for you to relax and take in breathtaking mountain views. While bar service on The Rooftop is currently unavailable, it’s the perfect spot for some quiet reflection.
Speakeasy Vibes: The Red Ribbon Society, our speakeasy tucked below street level, is open and ready to welcome you for a memorable evening.
