Top Clingmans Dome Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Gatlinburg Town Square

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean, and very accessible to the national park"

Hampton Inn Gatlinburg Historic Nature Trail

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel, clean, friendly staff"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gatlinburg Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean and spacious. Staff was great, breakfast was good , commissary was stocked and reasonably priced. The hotel is a bit off the main drag and can be a little hard to see, I did miss it once. This is the only hotel I have ever been charged for parking than wasnt valet parking. Not sure if all the Hotels in Gatlinburg charge for parking but $45.00 to park for 3 days is a bit much for seniors like us. I will definitely look closer at that next time. That would be a deal breaker. Hotel is nice and quite, which is more than I can say for some of the others we stayed at this trip."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The room it was clean, it was just a weird smell but nothing that you can’t handle, and they need to upgrade the TV, but everything else perfect"

Two Rivers Lodge

8/10 Good

"We chose this location for the proximity to Bryson City. Stayed 3 nights to ride both trains in Bryson City. The room size met our needs and although somewhat outdated it was clean and comfortable at a reasonable rate. There is an outdoor pavilion located in the back right on the river. The only downside is the outside could use some attention with painting of doors, and outdoor furniture. There is a kennel located next door and sometimes bothered early morning with dogs barking. Overall, it met our needs."

Glenstone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"My stay was amazing the desk clerk Rokeya made sure we had the best service while staying there. My room with the fireplace was gorgeous. Thanks Glenstone Lodge for an amazing experience."

Lloyd's On The River Country Inn By OYO

10/10 Excellent

"I liked the tranquility of spending time on back porch overlooking the river!"

8/10 Good

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg
