The Biltmore Hotel
For over 75 years, The Biltmore has been pleasing those travelers who expect only the best. The hotel's rich architecture
and setting evoke an image of bygone days, a time in our history when appreciating the finer things was considered an art
form. From the hotel's beautifully-appointed guest rooms to the indulgent services offered by the Biltmore Spa, there is
much to pamper you and much to experience.

Johnny "Tarzan" Weissmuller, Emmet Kelley, and the Great Wallendas, were frequent visitors to The Biltmore Hotel in the 1930s--not as guests but as performers in "Alexander Ott's Water Follies." In the era of grand aquatic shows, The Biltmore's colossal pool was world renowned as the stage for water ballets, fire divers, comedy acts, high divers, and water polo. To accommodate the throngs of spectators who came to witness the water spectacles, the hotel's owners even built a 500-seat grandstand at the water's edge. In the 1940s, swimming sensation Esther Williams performed there. Now some 60 years later, The Biltmore's pool is still a record holder. At 700,000 crystalline gallons, the pool ranks as the largest hotel pool in the continental United States. Frequently used as a backdrop for movies, fashion spreads and video shoots, it has become a favorite "photo stop." Its grandstand now replaced with private cabanas and lush landscaping of Canary palms, bougainvillea and hibiscus; and its diving platform converted to a multi-tier waterfall, the 23,000 sq. ft. pool continues to delight hotel guests and visitors alike.
