Omni Grove Park Inn
The Omni Grove Park Inn
A hillside resort built in 1913 from massive boulders, with a sunset terrace overlooking the city and the Blue Ridge.
The Omni Grove Park Inn is built from local granite boulders. Its lobby has two giant stone fireplaces, each large enough for a person to stand in, and past guests have included U.S. presidents and the writer F. Scott Fitzgerald. Non-guests can order a drink on the sunset terrace to watch the sunset, or visit the lobby, which is filled with Arts and Crafts-style furniture. Every winter it hosts the National Gingerbread House Competition, which draws large crowds. The underground spa requires an advance reservation.
