Top Gatlinburg Space Needle Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very comfortable and clean. Fantastic location to the Gatlinburg strip. Parking was included with the room as was breakfast in the package we chose. The food was good, especially breakfast. The view in the restaurant was amazing day and night. Every staff member we interacted with were very pleasant and helpful. Didn't have a negative experience with anything and will stay there again."

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Clean Room. Clean beds. Accommodating. Easy parking Friendly staff. Reasonably priced to be right in the middle of Gatlinburg. Balcony was spacious and clean."

The Historic Gatlinburg Inn

8/10 Good

"For us, we enjoyed the experience, but it can depend on what you are looking for in a hotel. Room was clean and the washer/dryer on the first floor was nice to have. Breakfast was delicious, and location is phenomenal. Everything you could want to do in Gatlinburg is within walking distance. Staff is nice. We booked a room with a bed and a sofa, but instead we were given a room with only a bed. Three of us had to sleep on one bed. I can’t complain however, the room we were given had a huge balcony that wrapped around the side of the building and gave a great view of the city. I will say that while the hotel is clean, it does have the vibe of your grandmother’s house. If you want something more professional and modern, this place may not be for you."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Gatlinburg, TN

10/10 Excellent

"The overall cleanness is outstanding. Staff is friendy and helpul. Breakfast is nice perk."
