My stay was decent overall and the location was great — close to everything. I was in Gatlinburg mainly to do a hike about 20 minutes away, so this place worked out well. One thing to note: I was charged an extra $20 per night for vehicle parking at check-in. I might have missed it in the booking details, but I don’t recall seeing that mentioned anywhere beforehand, which was a bit frustrating. I also booked this place because it advertised breakfast included, but unfortunately breakfast is only served from 7–10 AM, and I had to leave by 6:30 AM to find a parking spot for the hike. Overall, it was a good stay and the area has plenty of attractions around — especially nice if you’re visiting with kids.

Our favorite place to stay in Gatlinburg! While the property is showing its age and the elevators are notoriously slow, the location simply can’t be beat—it’s the best in Gatlinburg in my opinion. We stay here every year, sometimes twice a year. Unfortunately, they’ve recently added a $15-per-night parking fee, which feels unnecessary and disappointing—a way to add extra charges without offering any additional benefit in return. Still, despite that, it remains our favorite place to stay.

Unreal location....needs a bit of updates.

No way to beat the location. Simply outstanding. The staff were also very friendly. The elevators need to be updated to move faster. Very slow. The beds could also be updated. Those items aren't enough to keep me from staying there next time. Again the location is A++

Great staff well maintained property and walking distance to center of town. Gatlinburg is not a town you want to drive in due to very heavy traffic.

Nice room HORRIBLE parking

Ok, we had the room with fireplace and jacuzzi tub. The room was small but cozy. The fireplace was nice and the jacuzzi tub was huge! So relaxing. The bathroom was tiny!! The room was dated but still looked nice and was clean. The bed was old and not the most comfortable bit not horrible either. Staff was friendly and helpful. Therr is a Haunted House right st one end of the hotel. The hotel is VERY long. Thankfully our room was not close. If it hsd been, it would have been awful. The music was BLASTING LOUD and you could hear people screaming. If not gor parking, I would stay again as long as I knew I was on the end away from the Haunted House. The parking was HORRIBLE. Its almost $17 for a parking pass. Per day. ($15 plus tax) parking is under the hotel so I don't understand why there is a charge. The lanes were so tight I had an anxiety attack and had to make my husband drive. The spaces are super tight!!! And I mean super tight. I will not stay again soley due to parking.

The first impression was of the parking garage. The parking spots are SO small and at such tight 90 degree angles with huge cement posts, it seemed like it was going to be impossible to park our midsized vehicle. With the 3rd spot we tried, we were able, with great difficulty, to park our car without hitting anyone. The hotel was decent, but in major need of updating. The breakfast was good and the location is great. I wouldn't, however, stay here again, unless it was my only choice.
