Comfortable stay in convenient location
We enjoyed our stay; the unit was clean and comfortable. It was a short walk to downtown and a short drive to the national park. Some minor cosmetic improvements could be made.

Great time
Good clean hotel. Very cozy. Beds are soft and water pressure is good. Other reviews talked about outside being dated but I liked it. Would definitely stay here again. Close to downtown and can walk everywhere was a plus.

Great location and price!
Love the location! Everyone was so nice. The fireplace in the room was such a bonus! The condition of the stairs and a few things in the room were a little rough, but it did not end up taking away from our trip. We would stay again!

Expensive two star
Room was smaller than expected being that i paid for a honeymoon suite bed frame was cheap and creaked at the slightest movement . If your just looking for a place to layyour head it will work but alittle steep for what you get

We have stayed at many Gatlinburg hotels, including the big expensive ones. This one provided the most comfortable stay yet. The bed was super comfortable, the fireplace was nice and warm and place is clean and well maintained. Can’t wait to go back!

Romantic mountain getaway
The room was overall nice, and cozy. Older building, rehabbed to modern feel. Limited contact room service, no smoking close to the buildings, or on balconies.
Close to the river, and in reasonable walking distance of most places on the main strip. Close to the entrance to Smokey Mountains National Park.
Would stay there again
