Best Breakfast ever!
Wonderful hospitality and the best breakfast ever! homemade doughnuts and mini rhubarb loaves at checkout! And in spite of being in a busy area, the rooms were quiet. Bathrooms were updated and very nice. We liked the rich history displayed on the walls and log cabin feel.

Please remember that this is a historic hotel built in 1937. Location is everything here, however this is NOT a soundproof hotel. You can hear literally everything. So, if you are a light sleeper like me, you will not rest here! But staff was amazing, breakfast, and location great!!!!

Pros and Cons
Great location! Old hotel with updates. No refrigerator, microwave or hair blower in the rooms! Clean room! Comfortable bed! Spacious room! No view from our room (balcony)! Complimentary breakfast every morning but not kept at proper temp - eggs were always cool!

Best hotel im Gatlinburg
We absolutely love this hotel. The charm and history here sets it apart from the rest. Its a perfect location to walk to all that Gatlinburg has to offer. The staff are all very sweet. The front porch is great especially in the winter with the fireplace to keep you warm. The breakfast in the morning is delicious.

We spoke to the personnel upon leaving. There was obvious debris on the floor behind the telephone table & debris behind the door in the bathroom. Dusting was lacking. We will not return.

Great location and breakfast
I loved this place. It was built in 1937, so it has a vintage charm. It is centrally located on the strip which is amazing.
Great fresh breakfast!
