Far enough from the hustle and bustle of the main drag, but close enough to walk to it. Staff was very friendly and outgoing.

I paid 2x what my daughter paid for the same dates the only difference was she got a single room and I got a double. I went to her room and hers was really nice and mine well let’s just say it was not.

I thought the parking accessibility was great and the walkability of it being so close to downtown. I think including a breakfast and updating the rooms would be a HUGE improvement. It was clean and spacious, but the bedding looked older and there was only one microwave in the lobby. The beds were not terrible, but I think upgrading the spring mattresses would be a big help.

Really out dated but it was a good price and worth giving up all the amenities of other hotels. Staff was super nice and helpful!

Pros: Amazing staff! Great location. Convenient access to transportation. Nice view of the river. Cons: Our room was right next to the elevator and it was very loud, facilities were outdated, no water pressure. Overall, I would stay here again!

Staff was friendly. This is an older hotel and the courtside section is in need of an upgrade. Room we had was very small and was a pet friendly room. It smelled like wet dog. The bathroom was also very small. The staff did try to find us another room, but the one they offered only had Full sized beds vs queens. Outdoor pool was heated.

We loved the pool. There were alot of children in it but it was a family trip. It was open until 11 pm so that was great. The balcony isnt really big enough to sit on, just fyi.

Amazing property, room (so lovely), and hotel staff (friendly and inviting). I went unbeknownst the last weekend of Winterfest but you couldn't tell (noise wise) until you walked downtown. Great walking distance to town as well and everyone was friendly. Definitely will be back !! If you’re ever going to gatlinburg, this is the place to book.

Great for the Granddaughter
This hotel was in a great location. I was just a few minutes walk from downtown Gatlinburg. It also had a great pool and hot tub. Our granddaughter was with us and wanted to play in the pool, of course. But the pool was so warm it was comfortable for all. We had a room next to the creek and enjoyed throwing food to the trout in the creek.
