Nice hotel on the river in Pigeon Forge. Great for families with the pools and the river with Canadian geese. All good location for all of attractions.
The property was nice and convenient to the attractions. I did ask at check in about the VIP amenities and was told that they only honor the amenities through choice hotels.
EconoLodge has beautiful grounds-loved the riverwalk. Room was adequate, but the toilet barely flushed, the shampoo and conditioner dispensers did not work well, the bathroom vent fan was nonfunctional, and the decaf coffee was not replenished for my 2nd nite.
However, free breakfast and hot tub were big pluses and desk staff were very helpful.
The room was clean, but it was directly connected to the pool area. We had an overwhelming smell of chlorine in our room. It was also very noisy until about 45 minutes after the pool was supposed to close. The air conditioner kept waking us up as it cycled on and off, it was extremely loud. The shower was not great.
The employees were very nice and helpful.
I believe that we were put in a less than desirable room because I had reserved it through the app.
We absolutely loved econolodge & will be booking this hotel anytime we go to pigeon! Clean, the beds were SO comfy, the showers were nice & it had a great vibe to it! Only complaint was we did laundry in the laundry facilities and it took 3 runs of the dryer for our clothes to be dry.
Hot tub was nice and hot very relaxing. Our room was clean and comfy. Very spacious and quiet. The pool was ok although I do think it had a bit too much chlorine in the pool only because you could smell it very strongly and my son’s eyes were burning. Other than that everything was excellent. The breakfast was great as well.
Hotel was clean and it was nice to have room by the pool. Hotel also right beside miniature golf. Beautiful outside by the river. However, the only bad thing was the beds. They were not comfortable at all.
Clean rooms, friendly staff. Nice to have indoor pool and hot tub. One of reason I went there is granddaughter wanted the game room. That was a major disappointment. No actual games, just several of the machines where you try to grab little toys/stuffed animals.
