La Quinta Inn and Suites of Boone

La Quinta Inn & Suites Boone University Area is a hotel and event venue nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, a mile from downtown Boone and steps from Appalachian State University. For groups that want their accommodations and their gathering space under one roof — wedding parties, corporate retreats, sports teams, and university visitors — this is a genuinely practical and welcoming choice. The on-site meeting room is built for flexibility: banquet and reception setups accommodate up to 60 guests, while theater and classroom configurations extend to 90, all supported by dual mirrored TV screens, surround sound, and microphones. Groups booking 10 or more rooms receive complimentary suite upgrades, a thoughtful perk that elevates the experience for wedding parties and corporate retreats alike. Luxury King Suites with jetted tubs and fireplaces offer a comfortable retreat for couples and key guests. Beyond the event space, an indoor heated pool, fitness center, and complimentary hot breakfast give attendees every reason to enjoy the full stay. The hotel is also pet-friendly with no additional fees — a welcome detail for wedding and travel groups who wouldn't dream of leaving their pets behind.
