Top Ripley's Moving Theater Hotel Reviews

The Historic Gatlinburg Inn

8/10 Good

"Location was perfect as the hotel was located in the center of the main road to everything. Breakfast was pretty nice. Rooms were comfortable. Beds seemed smaller than a normal queen size. Shower was nice. No refrigerator. But ice was accessible. Rocking chairs out in the patio were awesome. Free internet. And parking available on premises."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gatlinburg Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Very close to some of the best hikes in the park. Super close, makes it easy to there and find a place to park"

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"Very nice"

Sidney James Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a nice corner room on the 4th floor. It was large and had a table and chairs as well as fridge and microwave. Our balcony faced the creek and it was nice hearing the water, although we had to stand and look down to see it. The bed linens were soft and we had plenty of towels. For the value I think it was an excellent place to stay. The staff were happy and pleasant. The free tram stopped right out front, and it was an easy walk down to the Main Street that had all the shops and restaurants. There is a cafe on site with limited hours but was convenient. There is a nice indoor pool with a waterfall and an outdoor pool. I would stay here again if we are in the area. My only complaint was that the pillows are too hard! I should have asked if they had any soft ones….oh! It was fun and a bit scary watching for the bear who likes to visit and scrounge for food!"
