Top Christ in the Smokies Museum and Gardens Hotel Reviews

Brookside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Love the stream. Friendly staff and I always see a bear."

Glenstone Lodge

8/10 Good

"Our stay was great. The one thing we noticed walking in was how good it smelled. The pool area was really nice as well. And it was a short walk to the strip. The only issue we had in the room was the sliding door to the balcony was defected which made it extremely difficult to open and close. Not a huge deal because everything else was great. I definitely recommend this lodge."

Reagan Resorts Inn

8/10 Good

"Great location."

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Our handicap room was very spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable. The only negative was the breakfast was very bland."

The Greystone Lodge on the River

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and very nice staff will stay again nice location"

Best Western Johnson's Inn Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean. Appears to be recently updated. Grounds kept up very well. Breakfast was not great. Much to be desired. Would like to suggest key card entry to laundry facilities, breakfast area and breeze way entrance. This additional security would prohibit bears from entering and unwelcome guests from visiting."

Hilton Garden Inn Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The best part about this location is the view the balconies provide an observation deck that really and truly provided me with such peace that I will definitely stay again. Additionally, some of the staff were so helpful and friendly. They really took their roles as making us feel welcome and hospitable seriously and it showed."

River Edge Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were wonderful, clean and fully stocked. The staff were wonderful and went beyond expectations to make our stay great. Definitely recommend."

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best properties we have stayed at in the Gatlinburg - Pigeon Forge area. Room and parking were great; the only comment I have is regarding the (nearly) hidden entrance which is easy to pass up the first time going by. Okay once you know where it is."
