10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is on the older side but has been kept up well. The hotel itself is the staple of any picture taken of the city of Gatlinburg as it sits atop of a large hill in town. We stay there recently and were surprised to find out that since our last stay a few years ago, you are now charged $ 20.00 a day on your card upon check out for parking. In our room you could hear the sliding doors to the room above us open and close , but not a deal breaker. Overall the Park Vista has most of the amenities that you will need. A nice hotel at a reasonable rate with fantastic views."

"This hotel is in an excellent walkable location. The property is relatively basic but well maintained. The staff was very helpful and friendly. There was a free breakfast but we did not partake in it. The pool looked clean and well maintained. My traveling companion was on crutches and would say for people who have difficulty with mobility stay closer to the front of the property."

"Nice place to stay, this was our second time staying here. The biggest issue we had on both visits is the lack of water pressure in the shower. We had a hot tub room and pressure for filling it was great but the shower pressure is Bad! It's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. Amenities are very nice and location is Great. Parking lot is very nice!"
