Hotel was old. $500 for two nights and it’s outdated. No carpet so you hear every step from the people directly above you. The fireplace is tiny. Have the logs that would fit in the usually space and puts out no heat. Online picture looks like theirs a restaurant but they told me at check-in without my even asking “the restaurant is closed, never opened back up after Covid and we have no housekeeping so if you need extra towels etc come up to the front desk and we will give them to you”. Finding your room is confusing and parking is weird and would be a nightmare during season. It was ok for the two days we stayed sight unseen but there are many other nicer choices around. Would not go back or recommend to others.

PROS- You can’t beat this place for convenience. It’s a quick walk to the main drag shopping and restaurants. No need to pay $10-$20 to park downtown because you’re practically right there. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed and pillows were comfortable and had clean linens. My room had a balcony that overlooked the river and those rooms are all spacious. CONS- This place is very dated and worn. Considering what a great location they have, some updates would make this a pretty sweet hotel. My room had a lot of stains on the carpet, cigarette burns on old curtains and although clean, the bathroom was smaller and kinda dreary. If you are focused on convenience to the downtown Gatlinburg area and also the park entrance, then this place serves that purpose well.

I opted for the river view room and paid more for it but It does not look like the picture and is very dated. The staff at checkin were very pleasant, the lobby is nice if not a little quaint, but I'm cool with that. The river view room is in an old motel building, probably built around the 60's if I had to guess. The room was very clean. The beds were comfortable and the pillows were great as well. If you dont care about staying in an old room with a very outdated bathroom and just need a convenient clean place to lay your head then this is a great spot for you. I would stay here again.
