Nice, clean, convenient hotel

We have stayed at this hotel several times. It is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located within walking distance to all the major attractions. The breakfast that is included is more than just the normal continental breakfast. Eggs, sausage, gravy and more are served up by a very nice husband and wife couple. I would recommend this hotel to anyone!

Nice facility

Although a bit dated, the room was clean and comfortable. We had a balcony facing the stream which was nice; however we were downwind from the cigar and cigarette smoking neighbors. The same neighbors woke at 5 am for their morning smoke and conversation. She sat on the balcony while he worked the bathroom at the other end of the room and they planned their day loudly. 5 am. The breakfast was nice; the biscuits were fresh and hand made -- light and buttery! The hotel is at the far end of the tourist spots but very walkable. Ate at the mellow mushroom and the smokey mountain trout house, both short walks.

Right in middle of downtown but quiet

We had a room on the river but the river was way down which of course not the hotels fault! Had a pleasant stay. Easy check in and out. It is right in the middle of downtown but because it is such a large hotel, it is almost secluded. It appears to be an older building but very well maintained and clean.

Great location !

When we got to the hotel they had not received the information about me needing a ground floor room. They took their time and found us a ground floor room near the office which had a king bed, fireplace, refrigerator, mcrowave, etc. We were right in downtown Gatlinburg and could walk to pretty much anywhere we wanted to go. The staff was very accomodating in helping us find the different places we wanted to go. When we go back to Gatlinburg we are definitely staying there again.

Throwback room

Room was off from the others. View was of someone else's room. Shower rod was curved so the shower curtain would go to the center of the tub and leave both ends uncovered. Breakfast was okay but bland. Had to ask for hot cholate.

Stay at Best Western-Wonderful

Only thing I would recommend to the hotel is get comfortable chairs to sit in ...ours was like sitting on concrete after 30mins to watch news at night. We had a TV but you couldn't enjoy sitting cause if the type chairs...how about improve that.

Convenient location

Walking distance to Gatlinburg attractions. Disappointed in this Best Western. Needs updating, rooms are small and worn. Tile floor was dirty and our room had a musty odor. Meager continental breakfast.

Expected a nice view, but got trash cans instead.

Because of the information on the Expedia website, we thought we would have a room with a balcony overlooking a stream. But from our room and balcony, room 412 in the Honeymoon Island section, we saw only trash cans from the restaurant next door and heard them emptied in the middle of both nights of our stay. There are many other rooms that do have a nice view of trees and the stream. Do avoid room 412 and the room right next door if a nice view and quiet are important to you.
