Pros: We love the Gatlinburg Inn. This was our second visit and we loved it so much the first time that it was our selection for our servings trip to Gatlinburg. Out also was where we just got engaged! There is a fireplace out front with some rocking chairs for socializing. There is a pool for the summer. There are a few rooms/seating areas for your family to hang out and done have fireplaces. The charm of this place really wins out. Finally, it is in the absolute heart of downtown Gatlinburg, so the convenience cannot be beat!

Pros: Facilities take you back 30 years while maintaining all the comforts you want and expect. Best hospitality we have ever had anywhere. Great location,fantastic staff, and great stay.
Cons: Walls are thin and you can hear others in adjoining rooms at times. This is no big deal to us as it seems the clientele attracted here are courteous and responsible people who are not up thru the night and being loud or obnoxious. This is a very minor thing and was NOT a problem. Great place !!!!!!!
When you stay at River Edge Inn in Gatlinburg, you'll be in a national park, within a 5-minute walk of Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum and Gatlinburg SkyLift Park. Featured amenities include express check-out, an elevator, and coffee/tea in a common area. Free self parking is available onsite.

Pros: Close to everything and comfortable beds. We had a nice balcony that overlooked the courtyard. The staff was nice and it was an easy check out. Nice Flat screen TV.
Cons: The hotel was very dated and needed a lot of repairs. The shampoo was in small packets instead of bottles and our toilet paper and tissues were left empty when the maids cleaned our room on the second day. If you can get the room for under $50 it is worth it due to the location. The room itself is not worth more than $40 per night.

Pros: Beds were very comfortable. Room was more updated than expected. Fridge, microwave, and coffee maker were appreciated. Free wifi ran at an adequate speed. Location was the best feature, close to the parkway with a creek, trolley stop, and restaurants nearby. Staff was very friendly. Great value. We enjoyed our stay very much!
Cons: Carpet could use a cleaning.
Considered by many as the finest resort in the Smokies, BEST WESTERN Zoder's Inn offers you the seclusion of six peaceful acres beside a beautiful mountain stream - and yet, we are located right on the main street in downtown Gatlinburg, so that you are just within walking distance to many of the town's fine shops, restaurants and attractions. Our guest rooms are unequalled in comfort, offering in-room coffee, small refrigerator, wet-bar and private balconies overlooking the stream. There are a variety of elegant suites to choose from - a cozy, romantic suite with a fireplace for two or a spacious two bedroom suite - sleeping up to 8 - with full kitchen and dining room.

Pros: Great view of Mount Le Conte. Above, and away from all the activity in Gatlinburg. Very friendly, and helpful staff. Clean, comfortable rooms.The restaurant was very nice; good service, good food. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. And the cookies at the front desk!
Cons: We stayed for a week, most people/families don't, which means that there are a lot of rooms to turn over every day. House keeping has more than they can handle, and on two occasions our room was not cleaned until 5:00 P.M. Check in appears to take a while (that wasn't the case for us), not sure why.

Pros: Pool and lounge facilities were top notch. Beautiful building. Amazing view. Because of the view though, you end up quite a ways outside of Gatlinburg proper. Also the bed was akin to a hammock, which my back objected to

Cons: We were told we would have two queen sized beds and received two full size beds. For paying as much as we did, not a very nice room at all.

Cons: They overbooked and sent us to WildBear Inn, a two star hotel at Pigeon Forge. Before that, they sent us to a better one, which is operated by the same company as WildBear Inn, and took us almost one hour to wait for check-in, but that hotel told us they sent us too the wrong one, since they also overbooked. We paid much more than the price for a two star hotel at that far, but finally we could only go there and just got two free pancakes for they mistake. Who need to pancakes!
Okay
5,7
Pros: Easily walkable to downtown Gatlinburg and the mountain views were incredible. Didn't spend much time in the room so these pluses made up for the hotels short comings.
Cons: The furniture was old. The carpet should be replaced. The stains on the chairs were unsettling. The entire bathroom needed refurbished 15 years ago. How is it possible that in 2016 there was a tube TV in my room?

Pros: The room on the river was decent minus the drunk guy who walked by and randomly tried to fight us
Cons: When we got there the woman could not find our room. I booked through kayak which sent us to getaroom.com, the staff at getaroom handled the situation well considering the mistake on someone's part. Either way it took an hour to check in. Then one of my kids got 23 dollars stolen out of his pants. When I reported it the lady (at the hotel) disregarded it saying the maid thought it was a tip....but it makes sense, every maid should take what they want from kids pockets. Really though for the money I just expected decent humans working for them and none were found. Find another hotel its Gatlinburg, there are plenty.

Pros: Location
Cons: Unattentive , uncaring staff. No breakfast as advertised, dirty. Foyer/front desk is the only nice thing about this hotel. Needs upgraded badly. Tub was atrocious. I asked for shower gel and was given a free sample of shampoo from a magazine. My son had a wire stuck in his foot from the crumbling wall of the kiddie pool. Maintainence man told me if I didn't like it to go to a different pool. Terribly disappointed. Wasted so much money. I'd never use this site again. Took friend her husband and family with us, utterly embarrassed. No compensation whatsoever considered

Pros: We needed extra linen for my mother-in-law. She caked to the front desk for some and am employee arrived with some within 5 minutes of her hanging up.
Cons: Check-in isn't until 4 and check out is at 10. I have checked into a lot of hotels before and they've been busy at times, but the wait to check in here was unbelievable. I think it took about 15-20 minutes to finally get to the desk and walk out with keys. We had the pleasure of leaving just before 10 and noticed the housekeeping didn't have any new linen on their carts. Maybe there is a separate one that comes through but we were under the assumption that the sheets aren't changed after each stay.

Pros: Nice Location Quiet Pretty view Value for the money
Cons: A little dated Pillows were flat
Excellent
8,5
Pros: Fact the location was in town and scenic overlooking the Little Pigeon river. Could and did walk to venues around town easily.
Cons: Was Christmas day when we checked in and being the holiday I can understand the strain of maintaining levels of service. were given a room on the 6th floor which ended up having not been cleaned. Walked in to someone else's mess, guess the room had been cleared off the computer so as to be let out again. So we hauled our gear back down to the lobby got another room that worked out fine for our 2 night stay. Couldn't find the TV remote there which was found later under/behind the bed headboard. Before finding called desk about it. Maint. man brought one in less than 4 minutes. Wow! Was nice/pleasant as he programed it to work. Overall visit was good with a few bumps. Enjoy.

Pros: This place is right next to the aquarium and right in town in Gatlinburg so it's an easy walk to everything. You do get a fairly good view either of the water or an overview of the city.
Cons: The rooms are a bit outdated. My coffee wasn't replenished everyday
Good
7,1
Pros: The resort is pretty and is in a great location for walking to the strip on Gatlinburg. Perfect for us wanting to walk around and not have to venture too far away. For the price I couldn't complain.
Cons: The room wasn't as clean as I hoped. The floor was a little sticky. We also had made reservations for two double beds but only had a single king bed when we got there. I called the front desk about it and they said they were booked, sorry about our luck basically.

Pros: We liked the location. It was within walking distance to almost everything. Loved to restaurant and the outdoor eating by the river. Service was poor but the atmosphere was worth it. Room was clean and spacious. Great view of the mountains. I would return again even though the pool was a disappointment.
Cons: The pool was so dirty that we couldn't even swim in it. My granddaughter threw a swim stick in and we couldn't even find it. At night when the pool lights were shining, you could see bits of white floating all over.
Excellent

Pros: Loved the location. Conveniently located to everything yet out of the hustle and bustle. Room was more than we could of expected. Bed was very comfortable.

Pros: We enjoyed that it was downtown close to all of the attractions and shopping, but it was also had a setting that you could enjoy the sounds and beauty of the mountains. And the staff were extremely nice and helpful every time we had a question for them. They were wonderful would definitely stay again.
Cons: The drive up to the room was very steep, was unaware that there were steps or an easier way to walk back to our room until the last day. Wish when we checked in they could have told us that. But that is really the only complaint I have about our while stay.

Pros: There were only two things we liked about this motel. The pool and the location.
Cons: Everything else was nothing I would ever go back to. The staff was more then helpful however the rooms themselves were completely dated with box TV's, hard beds, hideous bathroom interiors and no water pressure. We had a couple problems with a few bugs in our room. One on the ceiling one in my folded hotel towel when I opened it and one on the floor. Needless to say between the uncomfortable bed and bugs we did not sleep at all.

Pros: Great place to stay for biz, fam, quiet get away or even younger groups for folks. Several buildings on property and they grouped everyone well. Kayak by far had the best rate! I usually use Booking but they weren't the lowest this time. The others didn't even have availability listed.
Cons: The pool was shut down due to repairs, but it just looked temporary. Also, the Drafts sports bar on the property had weird hours and just kinda strange folks working there.

Pros: Five minute walk to anything, and just far enough away from the main drag to not be noisy at night. Nice reception staff and overall pleasant stay.

Pros: Great location, very affordable. We stayed for 5 nights during the Spring Wildflower Pilgrimage and found it an ideal location for the various events and a walk-able distance to the main street, restaurants and Conference Center. As the hotel is off the main street, we found the location quiet at night with the soothing sound of the river out back. Desk staff were friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Bathroom quite small and the balcony was shared with other rooms were two minor complaints. Continental breakfast was pretty basic and nothing to write home about. Overall, we would recommend the place and would definitely stay here again.

Pros: Rooms are directly over a nice stream full of fish. If it hadn't been so hot we could have opened the door to the balcony and enjoyed the soothing sound of the stream. Just a block and a half from the main strip. An easy 3 minutes walk. But far enough so as you don't hear the busy traffic. Room was very clean with comfortable beds. Also my wife and I always noticed the room had a nice fresh smell every time we entered.. Housekeeping was extremely friendly. Front staff very courteous, extremely nice and informative. We spent two nights. Around midnight on the first night, we were having trouble with our TV. I called the front desk and the young man working the desk said he would be there soon. He showed up in 3-4 minutes and soon had our TV working. Nice size flat screen TV with lots of cable channels
Cons: No complaints but My wife and I agree that the breakfast and coffee hours should extend a little longer til maybe 10:00.

Cons: False advertising on booking site. I booked a room with a hot tub and fireplace... No hot tub and (although it was late September) the fireplace didn't work due to it being "out of season". Bathroom was super tiny and the tub/shower was very slippery. Creepy-looking people hung-out outside of hotel's laundry mat (which you have to walk through to get to the elevator).

Pros: The location and the indoor pool were great.
Cons: Our room was very small and smelled like mildew/mold. The hotel is very outdated and not very clean. The Wifi did not work most of the time and the shower water kept going from scalding hot to cold without touching anything. We also were put in a "pet friendly" room, which I would NEVER stay in again. If I had known that part of the hotel was "pet friendly" I would have never booked there. We will never stay at this hotel again.

Pros: Very affordable, close to the shopping strip & attractions but a little more of a walk than I expected especially with small kids! I think our kids liked the pool more than they liked the actual vacation itself! I was happy to stay there though!
Cons: The pool wasn't very easy to access at all, our room we were given at check in had not been cleaned up from a prior maintenance job but the front desk took care of us right away and put us in another room. We ended up being by the creek which was really nice.

Pros: Great staff, very friendly. The staff were the highlight of this experience. The rooms were average with the standard motel options. Location was close enough that you could walk to the main attractions. For the price it was worth it.

Pros: The cleaning staff was very nice and the riverfront was a plus.

Pros: Ask for the creek side rooms with balconys! Hearing the creek from your room was great. Their indoor pool is what sells this place for me and my family. It's a fun pool, with waterfall and hot tub. You can't beat the value for the location and amenities.

Pros: After reading some reviews after booking our stay I was worried... we arrived & the staff was very friendly, rooms were clean, a/c worked great, ice machines worked.

Pros: The location was the center of downtown Gatlinburg. Would have been a great proximity if we had stayed.
Cons: The second you walk in the room, we opted for the poolside option as we were planning to spend time in the pool with our two small children, all you could smell was chlorine, not to mention the room was about 87 degrees when we first walked in. While looking around our room, we found lots of great treasures, old Broken Oreos in the carpet (carpet looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in about a month) , the bathroom was disgusting you had to hover above the toilet, the shower curtain had something streaked down it, looked like makeup maybe?? Who knows. There was brown matter streaked on the wall I could take a guess on what it was. It looked like feces. The tv kept cutting in and out with sound and picture so that was a no go when my 3 year old asked to watch cartoons before bed. We decided to check out the beds to see what they were like since the rest of the room was absolutely disgusting. On one of the blankets there was red lipstick. And on the sheets there were big black hair. In more spot than one. So I'm guessing the sheets hadn't even been changed? Needless to say we grabbed our bags and our two small children and got the heck out of there, we didn't even stay the night. Then the whole trip was spent attempting to get our refund back as we ended up having to spend money on a different hotel for our trip. And then they tried to tell us that we had to pay for the first night even though we didn't stay. We will not be back. Waste of money and time out of our trip.

Pros: The room was comfortable and felt roomy, the location was close to the strip and a lot of parking.
Cons: There were a few things broken in the room, the walls are thin, and the pool shouldn't close so early or should have an adults only time. The children spoil the trips

Pros: The rooms were sizeable, the water was hot, the location is great whether you're checking out Gatlinburg's tourist district or catching the trolley to Dollywood. Although we didn't go for a swim, the indoor pool looks amazing and I'm sure it's fun regardless of the season. I did note plenty of young families enjoying it while we were there and the air doesn't overwhelm with chlorine.
Cons: We arrived late at night, after 2am, and there was no one at the check in counter, only a sign saying "be back soon". After sitting in the lobby for more than half an hour whole the security guard stated at me and at his phone, a desk clerk finally arrived to check us in. Parking was limited, but they were accommodating by basically not enforcing any parking rules as long as we were not blocking someone in. They put us in a handicap room, which wasn't a problem in itself, but the bathroom door slides open and shut for ease of access and unfortunately it wasn't well oiled so we weren't able to ever fully open or close the door. I did report the problem, but don't know if it was ever fixed as we were only there 2 nights.

Pros: The website says the hotel is 2 blocks from the strip but that is still .4 miles. It's a lot further than the website made it seem. We received an earlier morning wake up call both days that we DID NOT request. But the worst was the water temperature in the shower. It would get scalding hot with no notice. I let management know when we checked out but he didn't seem very concerned. Wouldn't stay there again.

Pros: So the hotel itself was basically on the main Gatlinburg strip so this made EVERYTHING super convenient. The workers were also very polite & made sure to give us all the information that we would have needed, plus without even asking told us about the free breakfast (Due to covid 19 they only had a few things, not there fault by any means) & give us a extra room card.
Cons: The elevator was strangely stinky I’m not really sure why & our room was a little dirty like dirty bathroom mirror & finding hairs on the bed but I mean I’m not that picky or grossed out (your in a public cheap hotel)

Pros: I liked the location, it was nice to be able to park the car and walk to where we wanted to go.
Cons: We got to the hotel around 1:00 Friday afternoon to check in. When we walked in the lady at the counter was on her cell phone, on a personal call, she did not end the call to help us, instead she continued her conversation and helped us after she finished her call. In my opinion that was rude. Then while we were checking in someone called the front desk and requested help with their shower, she told a gentleman to go help them "because they couldn't figure out how to work the shower." Her attitude about that situation was wrong and she should not have spoken so rudely about someone who is paying money to stay at your hotel, especially in front of other guests (being myself).

We didn't have any intention on sitting thru the time share spill however they offered us $100 cash and a free 2 night stay (which I have now discovered in order to claim my "free" stay I must pay $50 to activate the account) so I said ok to the 90 minute presentation- 4.5 HOURS later I walked out!! Never again!!!! There reply when I said it's been longer then 90 min........ well we are not selling you a t-shirt then tried to make us feel guilty for not purchasing the time share by telling us "well I guess you don't want to have quality vacations with your loved ones" and "I must not done my job very well". Ugh!!! Now I know why I haven't ever sat thru a time share presentation before and why I will NEVER again - ever!!!

Cons: We arrived late and went to dinner, when we returned we went to make up the sofa sleeper. There were only sheets, no blanket or pillow. I called the front desk and was told that they would bring them right up. After waiting 45 minutes, they still were not there. I again called and was told again they would be right there. After 15 minutes, still not there. I called again and was told after asking to speak to a manager that they were trying to get a hold of the person who was supposed to be bringing them. This is when I insisted on speaking to a manager because they told me they were on the way two times already. I was told that they would the manager would call me in one minute. After waiting five more minutes and no call or blanket of pillow, I called and spoke to a lady who told me the manager had the girl outside who was supposed to be bringing the blanket and pillow up and was talking to her. I again was told I would be called in one minute. After not getting a call back and it was now after 1:00 in the morning, I called again. I spoke to a manager who told me that the problem was that they were booked to the maximum and were behind. I explained that it was after 1:00 in the morning and we had to check out at 10:00 as that is their check-out time. He then told me that they were shorthanded because one of the employees had a death in their family and they were not there. I explained that I was sorry, but first of all I as a customer should not even know about something like that. I then expressed that it has been well over an hour and a half and I still did not have the blanket and pillow and I just wanted to go to bed, however, I did feel some sort of compensation was in line, even a late check -out because I was not able to go to bed earlier. He told me that he could not do that. I told him that because it was so late, I was going to check out and find another place to go. He told me to do what I wanted to do. We went to check out and were not refunded any of our money. We had paid $286 for the room, plus an $11.00 fee, plus a $50 damage deposit. I have written an e-mail to the company with absolutely no reply. My credit card company is notifying them because we have filed a dispute. The only money I have had returned is the $11.00. We haven't even gotten the damage deposit back, and we didn't even sleep in the beds. The only thing we did was take showers. I will never stay at these resorts again, nor will i stay at any place that they are associated with. I think it is just a place to rip off people.

They will try to have you tour for discounted attractions-- seemed like a good idea but there 90 minute tour with a free breakfast turned out to be over 5 hours of salesmen in your face trying to sell you a timeshare.
