The Edison has a wonderful setting, with beautiful views towards the Blue Ridge Mountains. We’ve had excellent food in the past, but they’ve just reopened. My husband’s beef brisket was excellent. My smash burger was OK. But we had a lovely time visiting the Grove Park Inn, enjoying the terrace for a pre-dinner drink. And we were glad to see that the historic lobby has reverted to its Arts and Crafts decor. Beautiful! We’re locals, so have visited many time over the years.
