For the price I rated this hotel a 5 star because for the price it was great. Hotel staff was really friendly and helpful. Gave us ideas on gem mines, hikes and waterfalls, and restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable. New tv and refrigerator as well. Great old timely feel to hotel, one story and park outside of your... More

We stayed at this motel back in July. We stayed two nights while gem hunting in Franklin. The front desk person was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was simple but enough to fill you up for a busy day. Bathroom was remodeled so it was great. The only thing I could pick on was the TV stand. The TV... More

The Carolina Motel is a traditional, 50's era motel (motor-hotel in the literal sense) of the kind that you found all along highways across America before the interstate system was built - one story, all outside entrances, usually arranged in a semicircle with a swimming pool in the middle and you park your car right outside your room. If you... More

I needed a room for Friday night at the end of "leaf season" so I could be on the trail early Saturday morning. I refused to pay the rates charged in Gatlinburg or Cherokee, so sought out something in Franklin. I was most pleased with the Carolina Motel, which happened to have two rooms left when I called. First, I... More

The Carolina Motel is one of the cleanest basic motels that I have encountered. Do not expect anything fancy, not even an in room fridge in our unit (maybe others have one) but the room was impeccably clean. The staff is friendly. The property is beautiful and has a lovely playground and nice pool (outdoor). These folks know the local... More

We have stayed here before and it is always very clean, comfortable, great value with a super staff. We have stayed at other hotels and motels in Franklin, but find that the Carolina Motel is the best.
