The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

"Beautiful property. We loved our room. It had a lovely view of the stream and the mountain. The property sits on a quiet street just a few minutes walk from all of the action. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I asked if we could have a table for our balcony and one was brought to our room within a few minutes! There is a fee to park but there is also parking on the street if you don't want to pay for it."
