FEED YOUR SPIRIT AND YOUR SENSE

Nestled in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains, in the heart of legendary Blowing Rock, North Carolina, The Embers Hotel crackles with warmth and charm.

THE EMBERS. ELIXIR FOR THE SOUL.

Overlooking Blowing Rock’s charming town center, with the misty Blue Ridge mountains at its back, The Embers beckons guests to bask in the restorative power of nature, with a helping hand from high country hospitality at its finest. Each morning, we serve coffee by the fireplace, ready to suggest ideas for the day’s itinerary. In the evenings or any time curl up with a blanket, a book or a board game and let us fix you a fireside cocktail. Gather at the Embers Restaurant for a hearty meal featuring fresh, local fare. Relax with a sweet treat on our sweeping patio and breathe in that medicinal mountain air. Head out for a hike or an epic drive down the Blue Ridge Parkway (we have just the scenic soundtrack), and let the miles bring you back to your best self again.
