Hotel services

The hotel retains the historic nature of the hotel by using period furniture that matched the 1920s architecture and by keeping the elegant look of the lobby and parlor. Lake Junaluska follows cleaning and sanitation processes pursuant to guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control.

“Lambuth Inn struck me as a place where the setting elevates the stay; the views of Lake Junaluska, particularly from those rocking chairs, are undeniably the draw. While the Inn maintains an old-world charm with modern room updates, it's the overall welcoming feel and those expansive spaces that create a memorable experience. For those prioritizing location and a sense of grand, albeit slightly dated, hospitality, this Inn certainly holds its own.”
