Top Traffic Light #1A Hotel Reviews

The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Although the hotel is in a very convenient location, the property itself is extremely dated and could use some updating. The biggest positives are its proximity to plenty of dining options and activities, which made it easy to get around and enjoy the area. Overall, the location is definitely a plus, but the dated condition of the hotel took away from the overall experience."

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is very nice and located downtown close to all the activity. The parking lot is terrible, that’s rhetorical only complaint I have about the whole place. We have a big truck and it was hard to navigate through the parking lot. Other than that we enjoyed our stay."

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing time! Loved everything at the resort. From the grounds to the room, very well kept and clean. Beautiful pool! Lot of different areas to sit and relax. Loved relaxing by the fire pits on the rocking chairs. We will definitely go back!"

Baymont by Wyndham Gatlinburg On The River

8/10 Good

"Beautiful balcony either running creak."

Gatlinburg River Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient"

Brookside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at the Brookside Lodge for a short weekend in the smokies. We were greeted with the sweetest front desk staff and a thank you gift for staying with them. Our room was clean and everything was in working condition. This hotel is within walking distance to most attractions. It was quiet at this location and there is even a trolley stop right in front of the hotel if you’re unable to walk very far. We will be returning to this location on our next trip to the smokies. I would also like to add that out of every location we’ve stayed at in the past this is the only place where the pictures on the site are exactly what you get when you show up. Overall it’s a great location to stay."
