4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2013 NEW

In a nice central position, and an easy walk from all the attractions in Gatlinburg - you cross the river mentioned in its name. It's reasonably priced, clean, the rooms are large and the beds are comfortable. You get a little porch and some plastic chairs to sit in if you fancy a sit outside. Free breakfast pretty basic, but... More

The lady was very rude in the two encounters we had. The hotel is centrally located, which is great. The room is okay for the price. But next time I would rather pay more to stay at a better quality hotel to be treated right.

What made the stay enjoyable was Jana who is in the office in the evenings-- she was very pleasant and eager to help in any way she can----you... More

My husband and I just returned from a 3 day, and we have nothing negative to report. We stayed in the king size fireplace room, which is worth the few extra bucks. The fireplace was so-so, and not something we really cared about in May, however the room is huge & having 2 sinks was wonderful! The room is not... More

It was a good place to stay. Other than the A/C not working, thankfully it wasn't hot enough to use it, we just opened our window. Good place to stay. It is a little dated but, no major problems. My kids were ecstatic with where we were and the close proximity to everything. My kids were happy, so I was... More

As with other reviews I read, this hotel is rather dated and could use an update. The breakfast is decent though could use a couple more options, but nonetheless is still good. The breakfast room is rather small and doesn't have a whole lot of room to sit in if there are other people in it. You can take your... More
