Top Clingmans Dome Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gatlinburg Downtown

8/10 Good

"My review is only 4-stars because I was unaware of the $16 per day parking fee when I booked a 3 day stay."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is located along the river and directly adjacent to the Gatlinburg main strip making it a perfect choice. The Edgewater is one of the best maintained hotels I have visited. The front desk staff was wonderful and accommodating. The room was so nice, neat and clean. Although we did not make use of the pool area it looked very inviting. The morning breakfast was very satisfying. Definitely a place I would stay again."

The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The interior of the hotel was fine, but our balcony had some gross stagnant water from the a/c unit above dripping water on it and it doesn’t run off, just pools up. The exterior of the hotel needs some sprucing up and the outdoor furniture could use some fixing up as well. Overall, it’s a beautiful place to stay and the trolley service coming right up to the front is extremely convenient. The food was excellent, both for breakfast and dinner."
