The World Traveller Suite is the grandest room in the historic Engadine Inn, a Victorian bed and breakfast built in 1885. This spacious suite honors the well travelled lives of Engadine’s original owners, Captain John Keais Hoyt and Mary Elizabeth Bensel Hoyt, who journeyed from New York’s Gilded Age society to the vineyards of Western North Carolina and even across Europe. Their experiences inspired both the name Engadine and the global touches reflected in this suite’s décor.
Historic Touch
This suite features reclaimed 150 year old barnwood flooring salvaged from Engadine’s original barn, giving the room a direct link to the estate’s past. A grand king sized Victorian canopy bed anchors the space, recalling the elegance of the home’s earliest years, when Engadine was considered one of the most modern and prestigious homes in the valley

Guests of the World Traveller Suite enjoy the full inn experience. Each morning begins with a complimentary homemade breakfast served in the Engadine dining room — a tradition of hospitality that continues the Hoyt family ’s legacy of welcoming visitors from near and far.
Scenic Setting
Wake up to sweeping mountain views and the sound of nearby Hominy Creek. After breakfast, relax on the wraparound porches, explore the gardens, or head out to nearby hiking trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Asheville’s dining, arts, and culture are just a short drive away.
