Nice hotel
The hotel is really cool but I was disappointed in housekeeping. The first morning I noticed the water, coffee, and tissues (which were empty) were not replaced. I left a note for the second morning and the coffee and tissues were still not replaced. 2 water bottles were left, which looked like they were filled with tap water. Also, there was only one person in the breakfast area this morning and a long line waiting for coffee and food. There should be at least 2, especially when we're talking about coffee :-)

This is such a unique and quirky hotel and we loved every bit of it! We were on our way to Savannah and needed a place to stay for one night and the Radical did not disappoint!! What a sweet surprise! We ate at the restaurant, then went to the rooftop bar and then in the morning had delicious cappuccinos in their in-house cafe. We also walked the surrounding area where we saw lots of dogs being walked and even some cats but really, this hotel has everything, you don’t need to leave for a thing.

Stylish Hotel
Our stay was great. The hotel is stylish, clean and welcoming. The bed and pillows a little too soft. The only downside was the restaurant The Golden Hour. The food was mediocre. But the hotel and hotel staff are excellent,

The radical hotel is very fun. The decor is unique. My room had brick walls, oversize paintings and graffiti with excellent furniture. I’ve never seen anything like it. It was a lot of fun and I recommend it.

Frequent Asheville visitor here, so I was excited to get to try Radical. Super cool vibe, large rooms, nice rooftop. My only complaint is that I booked a river view king room (for an extra $30/nt) and it definitely is not a river view (even the rooftop has a very limited river view).
