Independent, Gatlinburg hotels

"I cannot say enough good things about this place. Great service great view from our riverside room. Pool areas are great. Friendly staff and helpful if you have a question just ask they will be happy to answer."

"Hotel was great! Very clean! On the 2nd night of a 3 night stay the room directly above us was up until 2 AM running back and forth stomping like animals (room 324 you know who you are 😂). The front desk staff took our request seriously and prepared a new room for us, they were very helpful. We would stay again for sure! Parking lot is very tight, but if you know how to drive it’s fine."

"So much bang for your buck! Plus extremely friendly staff. We got in at 3am and the front desk associate was chipper and personable. Fully stocked kitchen and convenient parking very close to the strip. Really enjoyed our stay."

"Nice staff, Awesome indoor pool area accommodating little kids up to adults with a 9ft deep pool. Rooms were a bit dated, but clean. Great location to everything. Would stay there again! "

"We loved our stay at Margaritaville! Kids loved the swimming pool and the adults loved coming back from a long hike in the mountains to relax with drinks. Only thing we did not like was the service poolside. Very slow. Everything else was great! "

"Our room there was wonderful. However the Gatlinburg trolly system was terribly crowded. It took us an hour and a half to return back to our room. Standing room only and packed like sardines. For the rate of almost $350/night, it would be great if the hotel had its own shuttle system for guests. "

"The river view was amazing. Enjoyed the breakfast. "

"Very nice place. Easy to find. The fireplace is excellent."

"Staff is very friendly and helpful "
