Stay was amazing! Fully updated and nicely done (not just paint but everything). Right on Main st, walkable to shops and restaurants. Contact-less entry made it so easy. Also, you must try the restaurant right behind it, Foragers Canteen.
Very clean room, great location. We parked, got checked in and went across the street for dinner. (AMAZING shrimp tacos) It was a Friday and live music was playing just down the street. ( walking distance)
We loved our stay at Hotel Sylva. The rooms have been updated and are really nice. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. Easy parking close to your room. Look forward to staying here again.
The location couldn't be beat for a short stay in Sylva. The room was quite small and dark but clean. It was a hot one, so the ventilation system was blowing loudly throughout the night. We were grateful to be able to walk all over town and have a comfortable bed and warm shower.
Everything was great! Walking distance to all the shops, restaurants and bars

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The check in and check out system was easy, the room was clean, and they provided blankets and water cups for the dog.
I especially liked how quiet the room was.
I would like to introduce it to my friends, and I would like to use it again and again.
Everything great place.
