Great stay

The hotel was very clean and the staff were friendly. It has very fun decor for the mountain area. It’s situated nicely by being close to the main Gatlinburg area, but far enough for it to be quiet in the evening. Breakfast was ok, typical but not extraordinary.

Jenny, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel itself is fantastic. It’s clean, the theme is adorable, it’s in a great location for getting in and out of Gatlinburg. Everyone was very nice, the room felt updated and the bed was comfortable. For us personally, we felt that the walls were a bit thin. I could hear everyone walking down the hallway at 10PM at night and could also hear all the parkway traffic. Which is no one’s fault, this was our first time staying on the parkway and at this hotel so we weren’t sure what to expect. Overall great hotel and great stay.
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

Good place to stay with family while in Gatlinburg.

Great Hotel

Our stay was good. We did have an issue that I won't go into detail about but it was handled by Amanda the general manager in the best way possible. She was truly kind and accommodating under the circumstances. We would stay again!
