Glenstone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The pool is great, the poolside rooms could use some updating but I don’t have significant complaints. Restaurant food is good and similarly priced to other places in the area."

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay! This hotel is one of our faves in Gatlinburg!"

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"I would say good on the following: - Prime location , easy access for shopping/restaurants and National park. - economical compared to other hotels ( we travelled in non-peak season) - Stay includes parking and Breakfast space for improvements: - I have booked rooms with balcony but was initially provided a room without balcony. I was told that the information was not passed on from Expedia to their system. So I had to wait in parking lot and had to chat with Expedia customer service. - Facility is a bit old, though the reception room and the breakfast area is properly maintained, the individual rooms require a bit more make over. we could see visible wear/tear in the rooms. Few lights were not working. Lift was not working for a day but later fixed, common area and vending machines in the 1st floor is not properly maintained. - It could have been better if the Breakfast menu was slightly changed every day."
