Perfect for a no frills stay on the strip in Gatlinburg! Our teens loved it as did we! Clean, comfy, close to everything! Great indoor pool(outdoor not open yet). Will stay again!!
We stayed here because it was in walking distance to all of the attractions and restaurants in Gatlinburg. The room was very neat, clean, and comfortable. You couldn’t beat the location!

Was within walking distance to all shopping. Great location. Clean hotel. My keys wouldn’t work at first but took them to the office and it was fixed immediately! Decent place.
The room was clean when we arrived. We were given a sheet with instructions/tips but it wasn’t very clear. We had a misunderstanding with trying to get housekeeping to come. We realized that putting out the door sign that said “maid service needed” was treated as a DND sign. The breakfast seemed to dwindle as the week went on.
The hotel is in a great location and in walking distance to many great things and check in/out was easy. Overall, we had a good time.

Staff at the front desk was very helpful and personable!
The room was very clean staff was very nice the only complaint that I would have is room was on the second floor all the way to one end and the bathroom stayed freezing the entire time it was so cold and the door was very hard to operate had trouble getting in. Besides that is a great room great location and everything.
The Wander is in a great location and is a perfect place to spend the night while you spend most of your time in town or at the park!

The staff was amazing! Best location, everything is walking distance. The room size is big you can even have an air mattress if needed. There was a few stains on the carpet just need more detailed cleaning but overall it was really good.
