Top Clingmans Dome Visitor Center Hotel Reviews

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and ready upon arrival. Kind and courteous staff. Breakfast was hot and plentiful, staff was on top of refilling. Pool area was clean and well stocked with towels."

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"The rooms were nice and big and the bathrooms were also very large. The shower was amazing. The only thing I have negative to say is not about the property but just one single staff member, I don’t even know his name but he was a night manager and also did the valet at night. He overstepped his role off the property and then questioned members of our group over an incident that took place off the property which he should not have even been involved in at all. It was not even a big deal but he felt the need to take his manager role to the streets which was really weird. We were at the restaurant Chesapeake which is off the property and he walked all the way over there to the street by the entrance of the restaurant to put his two sense in about safety concerns. We are adults and didn’t need him telling any one what we needed to be doing for our safety, but it’s more the fact that he was questioning other people that was there once we got back to the hotel to try and get names as if it even mattered who was who."
