Sidney James Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

Hilton Garden Inn Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Attentive and hospitable staff, great food and amenities. Beautiful views. Access to the trolley was helpful."

Brookside Lodge

8/10 Good

"Wonderful staff, really wonderful room and of course I loved the balcony on the river. Bathroom fixtures appeared new and in good taste which is not always the case. I wish the pillows were slightly better quality (these were lumpy) although I hate hard pillows which many hotels have and this one didn't. One key praise I must mention that might seem silly : almost every single hotel I've ever stayed in all around the world, with all numbers of stars almost always have bath and shower drains that back up. It's a major pet peeve of mine to stand in water after the shower is off. But with Brookside - didn't happen AT all! Love it!"
