Breakfast at the hotel was perfect for us; so much so that we never went out for breakfast which saved us money. The beds, shower and facility are all nice and clean. The location is great, too. When I come back, I will look to stay here again.

Great location, parking is a bit limited if you get in late. But an employee was leaving and we parked there and then didn't move the rest of the trip. Very walkable area. Staff very friendly. Room was comfortable. Breakfast area is too cramped. Food choices were ok.

Staff was very friendly. Very convenient location, steps away from tram to ober mountain. Pictures are accurate. When we were there the elevator was out of order so id call beforehand if youre someone/have someone in your trip that would need the elevator. Rooms were clean. The fireplace is obviously electric and didnt seem to give out much heat, so dont base your choice on the fireplace.

We love this hotel and always stay here on our yearly visit to Gatlinburg. The rooms are spacious, have a balcony over the river and are always clean. It’s located off the main street but still walkable to everything. It’s a short 2 minute drive to the park entrance. We highly recommend Old Creek Lodge.
