Top Ripley's Mountain Coaster Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Gatlinburg On The River

10/10 Excellent

"Great view, nice rooms, great staff! Had a great time!"

The Greystone Lodge on the River

8/10 Good

"I loved the location of this property and the grounds! They also had very helpful luggage carts. My one complaint is that my room had some funky food smells."

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Wonderful spot. Very close to everything. Polite staff. Very clean. Pool was great. The bed and pillows were not the comfiest, very worn out/cheap. Despite the bedding though we would stay again because of all the other plus sides. Still worth the price"

Glenstone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing indoor pool!"

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel overall was good. We had an accessible room which was very spacious. The bath tub had an accessible bench that was great however there was no hand held spray wand making the shower inaccessible for me."

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"The hotel is very average. Bed wasn’t good, walls paper thin. But the location is as good as it gets. Perfect if you want to explore the national park as the hotel is right on the edge of the city, but also right next to the main street of Gatlinburg, so you can do everything walking. The parking is good as well. In other words, if you are going to spend time in the hotel, you probably should pass. If you only sleep there and plan on being out in the nature most of the time, it’s good."

Bear Creek Inn

8/10 Good

"Comfy beds. Nice Creek view from balcony. Near or very close to attractions. My only negatives are a small bathroom and sink is located beside bathroom. Would rate though 8/10."

Sleep Inn & Suites near Sports World Blvd

8/10 Good

"Outside room door was unlocked when we first got there."

River Terrace Resort & Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"very nice clean room enjoy the stay"
