The Gillette

8/10 Good

"The location is great and we loved the newly renovated room (especially the bathroom)! The bed was comfy too! I would recommend them putting in blackout blinds because they have super bright lights down their walkways and it shines through the tops of the curtains. Plus, we stayed in the first floor and we could Hear the people above us until late in the evening."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean. Good location. Elevators were the slowest I have ever seen and even skipped floors where people were waiting."

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Our room was clean and beds were comfy. The bathroom was clean and functional also. The Staff was friendly and helpful. They were short staffed so things took a little longer. The room we had has been updated. Keep in mind the property is old so there are things that need updating, like baseboards, doors, balcony furniture, etc. Clean room and being able to park my car for the week and walk everywhere on the strip was the Best!!! We will stay there again in the spring."
