“Cliff House Suite on NYE 2011 was a BLAST”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed in the upper suite of the Cliff House. It was HUGE, clean and cozy. Stephen was a great host and my kids really took to him right away. Recent light rennovations were welcomed and made the place feel like home. Loved the location -- and the fun drive up to the hotel... it really is on a cliff and offers outstanding views of the valley below and mountains across the way. As others have noted, it's not a luxury hotel. But it was very comfortable and welcoming, which is what my family wanted. Also got to see the fireworks from our balcony on New Year's Eve (I think they were booming from nearby Boone...) We hope to go back and try some skiing in the area soon and will look to stay in the Cliff House.

Room Tip: Upstairs in the Cliff House features two rooms with a shared living area and fireplace. Fun!

“Wonderful inn in blowing rock”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Great place to stay in Blowing Rock! We stayed one night in the Cliff Dweller's Inn and we were so happy with the service, room, views, and location! It obvioiusly isn't a luxurious room but it's clean, cute, cozy and has everything you would need for a wonderful time in the mountains. We were really impressed with the room and the pictures online really don't do it justice. Also, this inn is build on a cliff and it's close to a bunch of really good restaurants. I would highly recommend staying here! I did a lot of research before staying here and I guess they must have done some rennovations/change in management since 2010. Either way, good place to stay now.

“Exceptional Service, Warm and Inviting”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

I visited here 10 years ago and loved it but this stay was the best. Stephen, the manager, was accomodating and made sure we had everything we needed for the room. Breakfast was served early and on time daily. The location is close to the Tanger Outlets, an adorable downtown decorated for the holidays and delicious restaraunts. I will definitely be back here again.

“Great Stop on Blue Ridge Pkwy”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I recently stayed at this delightful inn on my journey down the parkway and really enjoyed it. The manager, Stephen, was extremely helpful. The room was quaint, clean, and comfortable. And the view of the pond was unobstructed. This place is aptly named - it really is on the side of a cliff, so all the rooms have a great view with a balcony. I understand the current ownership is fairly new, so older reviews should be read with that in mind. I only stayed one night, but if I travel in that area again, I'll make this place my base of operations.

Room Tip: The rooms are arranged on a cliff (hence the name) so the higher you go, the better the view.
