About this apartment rental
Colby Loft offers a rare stay in one of Downtown Asheville's landmark buildings. Located inside the historic and fully renovated S&W Building, this luxury loft places you right in the heart of the city, just across from Pritchard Park and steps from restaurants, shops, galleries, entertainment, and local favorites.
Inside, the loft blends historic character with modern comfort. Exposed brick, hardwood floors, exposed ductwork, tile, granite, upscale appliances, and thoughtfully selected furnishings give the space a polished yet authentic downtown feel. The building also includes elevator access, making the loft easy to reach and convenient for guests.
The location is one of Colby Loft's biggest highlights. Spend the day exploring Downtown Asheville on foot, then return to a comfortable, stylish retreat in the center of it all. For guests looking to get outdoors, the Blue Ridge Parkway, hiking, biking, rafting, kayaking, zip lining, and other mountain adventures are all within easy driving distance.
Colby Loft is ideal for travelers who want a true downtown Asheville experience with historic charm, modern amenities, and easy access to both the city and the mountains.
This home offers convenient access to Downtown Asheville. Because of its central location, guests should expect some street noise, traffic, and occasional nearby construction.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
The Colby Loft is in a fantastic location. Located right in the heart of downtown. The S&W Market below the condo is a historic art deco building with a few take-out options for breakfast, lunch & dinner. We were able to walk to local restaurants, shops and points of interest. Parking and unloading was a challenge- but the public parking garage was convenient and a short walk behind the building. In order to enter the building and use the elevator we were sent several different codes at check-in. This was a bit confusing but we figured it out, and appreciated the security the codes provided. The condo was clean, equipped and comfortable. We liked the cement walls, urban industrial feel, & the decor.We would definitely recommend this location and will consider returning someday.(ps- the king box spring needs replacing) Thank you!

Great loft in an incredibly central location. Close to everything. Big city vibe in a small town eclectic environment. Great way to spend the pre holidays with family. Highly recommend for those looking for something different.

Did not use the kitchen much. Parking was fine.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
This apt is very cool and the kitchen is amazing. We loved being right downtown and within walking distance of everything we wanted to do…and it was surprisingly quiet. There are several passcodes to get into the rental but we appreciated the safety measure. Our only complaint and it’s not a small one is that when we went to get into bed (on our anniversary night), there was an absolutely strong and horrendous chemical smell on ALL of the bedding, just noxious…we both developed headaches and tight chests within five minutes. I checked to see if unscented detergent is used there and it is…then looked underneath the kitchen sink cabinet to find the possible culprit and there it was—OdoBan spray. Yes, that stuff kills germs but it’s so toxic and really stinks!! Removing the pillowcases and sheets didn’t make a difference so the mattresses and pillows themselves were no doubt doused with this gross spray. We didn’t get a bit of sleep and because there are no opening windows, there was no way to introduce fresh air…it was truly ‘that bad’. Not a nice anniversary to say the least. By the second night, the smell had faded somewhat so we could sleep but it was still noticeable. We contacted the property manager and asked for a reimbursement of that first night as it was a total bust and we felt so ill…but the most they were willing to do was give us 100 back which is rather laughable. Again, it’s a really cool space but make sure you ask in advance for no OdoBan!!!!.
