Top Downtown Gatlinburg Hotel Reviews

Econo Lodge Pigeon Forge Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a nice addition."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The room was wonderful. Size was perfect. The view was perfect of the town and the river below us. Within walking distance of everything. Breakfast was good. And the staff was very helpful with everything. Everyone was very friendly there. Pool and hot tub clean and was fantastic. Outdoor firepit very nice😊 we will stay here again. 10-16-26"

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"The hotel is very average. Bed wasn’t good, walls paper thin. But the location is as good as it gets. Perfect if you want to explore the national park as the hotel is right on the edge of the city, but also right next to the main street of Gatlinburg, so you can do everything walking. The parking is good as well. In other words, if you are going to spend time in the hotel, you probably should pass. If you only sleep there and plan on being out in the nature most of the time, it’s good."
