Top Christ in the Smokies Museum and Gardens Hotel Reviews

Reagan Resorts Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, staff friendly, and convenient to the shops, food and fun…….."

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."
