Good stay

Good stay with easy access to the National Park. Loved being next to the creek- it was like white noise. We did not have bfast since it started at 8 am and we were in the park by that time each day. Price was right for what we wanted.

We've stayed at this hotel.many,any times and always enjoyed our stay. But the last 2nd visits we were put in the older section. Behind the office on the right. Both stays were disappointing. We are well aware of the bear issues and the precautions to keep them from trying to get into cars etc. So we were surprised to find the bathroom window would not close all the way and we were unable to lock it. And the dead bolt was broken on the front door. Didn't discover either issue until after the office closed at 11pm. The breakfast was meager and unappetizing. Good coffee though. We are frequent visitors to Gatlinburg after 2 disappointing stays, may stay elsewhere. We enjoy the creekside rooms and fireplace, but disappointed how the facility has declined.

Brookside is a very unique and special place to stay. I love the fireplaces. I love the stream, and I like to open the door when I have a good fire going, so I can hear the water and the fire at the same time.
