Top Ripley's Mountain Coaster Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"It was a wonderful stay the staff was amazing the room we had was clean mostly except for the little bump out room with the circle window. I was surprised at how gross the walls and furniture were and kind of felt bad for putting the kids over there."

Glenstone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The lobby area was nice and smelled good. The check in process was quick and John was very informative about the area. Our 3rd floor room had an exterior entrance with elevator access. Our room was clean, updated, and nice and cold when we arrived. The water pressure was amazing and the water was very hot! The bed was comfortable and the pillows were perfect! The free Gatlinburg trolley has a stop right out front which is nice after a long day of walking the Parkway since the lodge is uphill. The walk down to the Parkway isn't far and pretty easy going downhill. The parking lot has a lot of spaces and everyone gets a tag to show you're a guest. We would definitely recommend staying here. I wish they offered continental breakfast. There is a coffee and pizza shop in the lobby area if you want something without going out. We didn't use the pool areas but they both looked very nice and maintained. While we were there a bear climbed up to the 2nd floor, so beware of your surroundings."

The Greystone Lodge on the River

10/10 Excellent

"Room had a beautiful river view. Delicious breakfast. Friendly helpfully staff and EASY PARKING"

The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Nice place. Pool/whirlpool/slides. Naomi was helpful. The plumbing was sluggish and the trolley lacked dependable service. Beds were exceptionally comfortable"

Best Western Johnson's Inn Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed my stay and everything was great except my last night the bed was not made well and the sink area was not wiped down, but other than that it was very good and clean."

Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The bar and restaurant were excellent! The staff was super friendly"

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The Edge is our home away from home. So perfect a place right on the river and very close to the strip… but not so close to be loud. The rooms were big and very clean and our balcony allowed for lifetime memories to be made! We even watched as a bear looked for his supper in the river! We could walk everywhere easily. The staff was great and even the breakfast was perfect! We will be back soon!"

Sleep Inn & Suites near Sports World Blvd

8/10 Good

"Front desk gentleman was awesome when we checked in. The lady working the breakfast wasn’t very pleasant, or friendly. She seemed irritated at everyone. When someone is that unhappy it makes you kind of nervous when they are the ones preparing the food. Room was very nice for the price but they could improve the looks of the lobby and dining area. It’s outdated. Hotel was convenient to walk to attractions."

Baymont by Wyndham Gatlinburg On The River

10/10 Excellent

"Clean with cute patios and views of the river. Close enough to the main strip to easily walk in and out of town and avoid the Gatlinburg parking issues, while being close enough to the Pigeon Forge side to easily head out without driving in a ton of downtown congestion."
