Lodging

The following listings (rooms, hotels, etc), have been approved by Stephanie and Sunny Keach. The rooms to rent are usually only "rented" to yoga students coming in for Asheville Yoga Centers workshops or training programs. They are given away first come, so don't delay your booking. Please feel assured they are safe and clean, as are the hotel listings. We have deleted hotels that are not safe or clean so please use our list when booking. All the lodgings are 10 minutes away max. by car, many are just minutes walking distance to the center. In fact, everything in Asheville is only about 10 minutes away from anything else (except the airport is 20).

Please direct your questions to the proprietors and not the Yoga Center or Stephanie, thanks!
