Gatlinburg Hotels near Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies

Location was good ,priced ok, Breakfast plain oatmeal ,zero fruit, worst I have seen ,usually have eggs and more choices

Location is great, just a block away from the strip. Walking distance to everything. Sheets and towels were clean. Extremely outdated. I'm sure this hotel was very nice in 1980 but not much has changed since then. TV is the only update. Place looks dirty just from years and years of use. The room smelled like a dead animal. Smell was coming from the refrigerator. We only stayed two nights so we just toughed it out. I wouldn't recommend this hotel.

We needed extra linen for my mother-in-law. She caked to the front desk for some and am employee arrived with some within 5 minutes of her hanging up. Check-in isn't until 4 and check out is at 10. I have checked into a lot of hotels before and they've been busy at times, but the wait to check in here was unbelievable. I think it took about 15-20 minutes to finally get to the desk and walk out with keys. We had the pleasure of leaving just before 10 and noticed the housekeeping didn't have any new linen on their carts. Maybe there is a separate one that comes through but we were under the assumption that the sheets aren't changed after each stay.

The balcony Everything was totally outdated,19 years ago I bought the same TV that was in my room.Bath was so stained we didn't even shower in it.Carpet was outdated ,torn and had paint stains on it.The Vertical blind didn't work properly,had to close some of the vanes by hand.Furnuture was From the 80's and worn. Weekend rate paid $$$ and was horrible dissapointment

1/4 mile walk to mall Where to start! Rooms need updating bad! Hard beds, Old tv, lights over the sink wouldn't come on. Shower head spraying in every direction. Water stain in roof tiles, tolite handle broken, bathroom heater switch was turned side ways. Not good not good at all

Staff was nice, pool was enjoyable for my kids, and location was very convenient The room was rough. It had outlets that were hanging out of the wall that we could shake and cause the lights to flicker. The bathroom tub was cracked and chipped. The beds were very hard and none of my family of 4 got much sleep on them. The "breakfast area" was the size of a walk in closet with several waffle irons and toasters which made it too hot to go in, and the couple of tables they had were always full so my family never had a place to sit.

The location was within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg. The cleanliness of the room could have been better.

I looked for a cheap place to stay, and that's what this is. Not the Ritz, but when you want cheap, what do you expect? We slept, there was a fridge, hot water, towels. We survived. :) It's located within walking distance of downtown Gatlinburg, and that's pretty much what I wanted. No ventilation in bathroom makes for a very steamy shower (and very quiet bowel relieving process, if you get my drift.) The sink was sorta falling off the wall. Ordered a king bed, got two queens. (Not end of the world, just use one for recreation and one for sleeping!)

Price was right Rooms smelled musty and old

It was close to town. The beds were very uncomfortable, bathroom was in bad shape, plugs didn't work and the room had a bad oder.

We reserved a room for a king bed for two nights and when we arrived we were advised by the manager that the room was not available, the previous customers decided to stay another night. Frustrating due to the fact we had confirmation that the room was available for the nights we booked, did not seem to matter that we had reserved and had confirmation that the room was available. We were offered a double bed room which we took due to the fact we had traveled over 8 hours and were tired. To add to our frustration we were directed to the 6th floor which we had to climb up 6 flights of stairs due to their elevator was out of order.

the location was good. the ad. said there was a jacussi, there wasn't and the pool and hot tub were empty.

Everything was great except a very small toilet.

The view is great and its in good walking distances for down town Gatlinburg. The place wasn't like its pictures, Room was really outdated, No privacy on the patio. Bathtub seemed to need replaced. I called like 3 months ahead of time to make sure I got a room and I ask for two beds and they gave me a room with one bed. I won't stay there again.

Seeing the river from the balcony Ajoining rooms and no privacy on balcony because the people on the other side could open the door and see what was going on. I felt unsafe cause there was 3 access doors where someone could break into the room. Pictures on the Internet are nothing like it in person. Needs serious updating, besides the sink area. I felt nasty the whole 8 hours I was there. Parking area is horrible for big size cars. I wasnt able to open the car door all the way to get my things because of another car inches away. It was not worth the 58$ I paid. Don't book over the Internet cause they have the say so if you can check out or not!! It was my husband's first time in Gatlinburg and the hotel was a disgrace. I felt ashamed for booking this hotel once I saw it for myself.

price pictures are misleading , slump in bed, tube tv, dated rooms

Staff was nice. Walking distance. Pool was under construction and the website should have told that. I chose that one because it had an indoor pool and hot tub and pause about $50 more a night since other hotels had seasonal ones that weren't open this time of year.

Room was ok. Location was great. They turned the room right next to ours into a party room for the Elk Convention and it went 24/7. When I complained I was told "oh you booked with kayak.com, you'll have to take that up with them....". I think someone realized that mistake and tried to put me in another room but by then they showed how they felt about online customers. Plus, they don't give the premium rooms to online bookings. They told me that. You'll be facing the hill in the back with a poor view. You cannot get the nice view online. I'll never be back to that place!

Great location for the price The fold out bed was very uncomfortable. There was no workout room.

Location close to city Room left a lot to be desired. The bathroom floor was sticky. Refrigerator smelled horrible. The mattress was worn out. Probably dips 6" in the center with nobody on it. Toilet flushed on its own every 30 to 40 minutes. The place could use a lot of proper maintaining and repair.

value poor quality beds, pillows, etc. Hotel elevator smelled like urine. Continental breakfast was disappointing.

Close to everything Price for location Mostly very clean The last 2 mornings of our stay they were doing some remodeling 2 doors down from our room at 8:15 in the morning. Im talking pounding, hammering, sawing, buzzing and tile break at 8:15 in the morning. I asked the woman at the front desk and she insisted they werent remodeling near my room. The towels suck. Mold above the shower

Location TV did not work at all. Breakfast is just cold cereal and toast. Staff was rude and unwilling to accommodate. I would not stay here again.
