Top Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff and locally centered to everything"

Gatlinburg Town Square

4/10 Poor

"Our rooms weren’t ready at 4 pm so we waited until 8 at which time we were handed the keys to the handicap room, which I asked for, and when we went inside, the whole place was a wreck. Nobody had cleaned it. There was stuff on the floor. The bed was all messed up and they don’t have an elevator so I had to limp upstairs to another room."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"BEST HOTEL...EVER. Staff was super sweet, house keepers cane every day and did a great job, scenery was beautiful, pool is indoor/outdoor with a slide and two hot tubs. Our toddler had a blast! I saw alot of people complaining about parking, there is a daily fee but you would be paying it to park at the attractions anyway. They also let us park on the ground level since we had a bigger vehicle so if thats an issue just ask!"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Gatlinburg, TN

6/10 Okay

"Comfortable beds but very noisy outside lots of cars with the alarms going off. Pool is in the basement giving it a sketchy feel, spooky for single ladies Breakfast was good fresh fruit,waffles, variety of cereal,eggs,chicken patties. Location not great. Didn't realize it's on a back street."

Brookside Lodge

6/10 Okay

"$5/day is now charged for vehicle parking. Something of which I didn’t see until I showed up to check in. This is ridiculous because the parking lot is never full when we are there and it’s not like it’s cleaned. My mom went to the office at 7am looking for coffee by the office. They told her she had to go to the gas station! (WTH), mind you they have a free breakfast. My mom is 70yo. We come every year. I’m not impressed this year and will be looking for some where else to stay. I’m sorry Brookside that you felt the need for the changes."
