The 1899 Wright Inn is a Victorian house in Asheville's Montford District designed by architect George F. Barber, one mile from downtown and three miles from Biltmore. It has 10 guest rooms plus a private carriage house, and breakfast is a scratch-made two-course meal.

TripAdvisor named it Best of the Best in 2023, 2024 and 2026, and the wraparound porch is the spot to sit with a coffee.
