Great location for River Arts District area. The hotel is fun and quirky in its design. The only issue I had was that there are WAY too many switches in the guestrooms. Only the main is labeled and if that was off nothing else would turn on. Lights and outlets had multiple switches connected to them so we spent a lot of frustrating moments figuring out how to turn things on and off. ONE light connected to the main is great - ALL of them is unnecessary and leaves a bad guest experience.

The Radical was a great boutique hotel in a very cool area of Ashville. The staff was helpful and friendly, the wait staff especially attentive and engaging. The restaurant, Golden Hour, had a fantastic Vegan Plate - different each night - that was superb.

We really loved the artistic flair of this hotel. The room was amazing and the whole hotel smelled incredible. The only thing we wish we had was more walkable dining options. The restaurant in the hotel was lovely though. I would stay again in a heartbeat.

Meh
Slightly disappointed by our stay here. Hotel can’t decide if it wants to be upscale or grungy; decor is close to being great, but not quite there. You have to pay for coffee in your room. Free coffee bar upstairs was under repair. New gym was incredibly cold and spartan. Hotel sits by itself away from downtown and a solid walk to river arts district

Cool hotel
Cool hotel in the River Arts district. They seem to be working out some kinks in the service… front desk asked for my information multiple times, no bell service. For the price, I expected more amenities in regards to service. The room was really pretty, beds were very comfortable, bath products were lovely (all by Grown Alchemist), nice coffee in the room. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

This is a unique artistic hotel experience, superb execution on the big picture and little details. The food and drink are outstanding at the Golden Hour indoors and nice outside view and drinks at the rooftop bar. Pretty walking trails on the River nearby if you cross the bridge. Staff were friendly. It’s an artistic delight just to walk the halls at this place. We also enjoyed the Admiral for dinner outside the property. Recommend this hotel highly for aesthetic and culinary delight.
