Top Blue Ridge Parkway Balsam Entrance Hotel Reviews

Comfort Inn near Great Smoky Mountain National Park

10/10 Excellent

"The place was clean and quiet and convenient to the fairgrounds. The only thing we had any issues with was the TV. It kept saying that the channel guide was unavailable. Other than that we had a great stay."

Jonathan Creek Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our clean room. Cozy and comfortable at a great price. Friendly staff with great suggestions on local restaurants and activities."

Best Western Mountainbrook Inn

8/10 Good

"good breakfast also parking was good"

Smoky Falls Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very nice, room was VERY clean, we didn’t get to use any amenities or visit the restaurant at the motel. The rooms are a little dated but they are working on updating but the room was comfy, clean and quiet. We would have loved to have been able to see the river from a window instead we got a building with tall grass. We had a great time and slept well and it’s very convenient to the shops. We will definitely stay again"

Balsam Mountain Inn

8/10 Good

"Great opportunity to step back in time at this rustic 1920s lodge in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mtns. Tons of character, lots of areas to hang out and play games, peruse their library, and settle in with a book on their fabulous front porch. Quiet location, 20 minutes away from the charming towns of Sylva and Waynesville, NC. Lodging includes free breakfast, a satisfying southern buffet—waffles, cheesy grits, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, etc. Staff is friendly. Service is “relaxed.”"

Grandview Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed the peaceful nights stay."

The Yellow House on Plott Creek Road

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was disappointing. A muffin and some French toast with sweet sauce. Property was great. Beautiful place and rooms were very nice"
