At The Henderson, travelers describe a historic, owner-run inn with warm, attentive hosts, standout chef-made breakfasts and praised dinners at Harvey's, eclectic vintage decor, and cozy common areas that reflect the building's century-old character.
Main Street shops and restaurants are an easy walk. Rooms are often small with creaky floors, occasional street noise, and some very small TVs; comfort is helped by in-room A/C. Reviews describe the property as generally clean and well kept for its age, though some mention tired areas and minor maintenance quirks. Best for travelers who prefer charm and hospitality over modern polish.

First time in the area. I had heard this was the best place to stay in town and they were right! Location: 1 block off the main street. Walking distance to everything and still quiet. Innkeepers: very cool couple that own / run the place. Husband is the chef, wife runs the front desk and the bar. Makes a great cocktail. Restaurant: awesome. Had a great dinner there. Very unique menu. Chef is British, cooked on cruise ships earlier and lots of local fresh ingredients. Breakfast the next morning was lovely. Decor: traditional Carolina style yet edgy. Lobby is full of vintage mobster / movie posters and trinkets. You can tell the people behind this place are well traveled and cool. Dont stay anywhere else in Hendersonville.

We had a very pleasant stay at The Henderson. Jeanne checked us in and she's very nice and welcoming. Room was small and the floor was very squeaky. The TV in the room is very small. Excellent breakfast and dinner at Harvey's. Overall, we would like to come back and perhaps try a different room.

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.

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.

i expected the property due to it's age to be antique like but it bordered on tacky. We were asked not to run the electric floor heater at the same time as the hair dryer or we would blow a fuse. The toilet seat was loose and uncomfortable. The decorations were lacking in taste it was a hodge podge of thrown together pieces in the yard. The room advertised it had a TV and the definition of a TV was a monitor about the size of a computer monitor. We were there to celebrate our 44th wedding anniversary a weekend that we cannot get back. Downtown Hendersonville did not disappoint but we were forced to spend the evening in a sports bar rather than the room that we rented to watch our sports team play their championship game. Our plans were to watch in our room.

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.

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.

First time in the area. I had heard this was the best place to stay in town and they were right! Location: 1 block off the main street. Walking distance to everything and still quiet. Innkeepers: very cool couple that own / run the place. Husband is the chef, wife runs the front desk and the bar. Makes a great cocktail. Restaurant: awesome. Had a great dinner there. Very unique menu. Chef is British, cooked on cruise ships earlier and lots of local fresh ingredients. Breakfast the next morning was lovely. Decor: traditional Carolina style yet edgy. Lobby is full of vintage mobster / movie posters and trinkets. You can tell the people behind this place are well traveled and cool. Dont stay anywhere else in Hendersonville.

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.

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.

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.

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.

First time in the area. I had heard this was the best place to stay in town and they were right! Location: 1 block off the main street. Walking distance to everything and still quiet. Innkeepers: very cool couple that own / run the place. Husband is the chef, wife runs the front desk and the bar. Makes a great cocktail. Restaurant: awesome. Had a great dinner there. Very unique menu. Chef is British, cooked on cruise ships earlier and lots of local fresh ingredients. Breakfast the next morning was lovely. Decor: traditional Carolina style yet edgy. Lobby is full of vintage mobster / movie posters and trinkets. You can tell the people behind this place are well traveled and cool. Dont stay anywhere else in Hendersonville.

We had a very pleasant stay at The Henderson. Jeanne checked us in and she's very nice and welcoming. Room was small and the floor was very squeaky. The TV in the room is very small. Excellent breakfast and dinner at Harvey's. Overall, we would like to come back and perhaps try a different room.

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.

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.
