I stayed at the Helendorf Inn for 4 nights straight. Every day the staff would come to tidy up the room, they were very attentive and always answered any questions I had. I look forward to returning in 2014

My husband and I spent several days in Helen, Georgia and stayed at the Helendorf River Inn. The room was very nice with two queen size beds, a balcony overlooking the river and a very friendly and helpful staff. The location of the parking lots and the elevators made getting to and from our room very easy. We will make... More
