Top Waynesville Recreation Center Hotel Reviews

Wildrest Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable bed! Clean!"

The Terrace at Lake Junaluska

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed at the Terrace many times for many years. It's always an enjoyable stay. One thing that is consistent over the years is the Internet is terrible. With an access point in our room the Internet was less than 10mb. In 2026 that's terrible. Other than than that the Terrace is a nice place to stay. The view of the lake is wonderful. That is why we return."

Clarion Hotel Conference Center Maggie Valley

10/10 Excellent

"Property is worn and dated, a remodel is sorely needed. However, excellent staff made up for the property’s shortfalls. Breakfast is the usual institutional fare served by everybody else. But again, the staff put their own unique talents to work and improved the flavor, especially the turkey patties which appeared to be fried in some sort of grease. Definitely an improvement over other chains."

Parkway Inn

8/10 Good

"Was a good place, however it is very outdated especially for electronics. Bathroom no counter to place anything. Bed was very hard, tv channels were everything you would ever want. The guy at front desk was friendly. I did not use housekeeping even though I was there S-W, as I was by myself & in meetings all day. Great location for what I needed."

Love Lane Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place to stay and the owners, Debbie and John, were so nice and hospitable. They welcomed us into their home like we were family. Morning authentic New Orleans chicory coffee was the best way to start the day on the porch watching the cardinals and other birds feeding was mesmerizing. Breakfast was great and it was tough having to leave. Highly recommend if you want to stay at a place within walking distance to downtown Waynesville."

Hillside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and larger than expected."
