Top Ripley's Moving Theater Hotel Reviews

10/10 Excellent

"Very enjoyable stay!"

The Gillette

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay and right across the street from the convention center! We enjoy staying here every year!"

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."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gatlinburg Downtown

8/10 Good

"Again spending a lot of money for an ok facility. Staff was great but too few One elevator not working entire time when we got there room door lock was broken had to move rooms. When we went to breakfast they were always out of food. Nice beds and comfortable not in the center of the village but u have a free shuttle Overall ok"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Gatlinburg, TN

10/10 Excellent

"This is by far the cleanest hotel we have stayed in. We loved it!! However, my son left his $200 airpods in the room and he tracked them, saying that they were activated with in four hours of us leaving and they said they couldn't find them? Just be careful and make sure you grab all your stuff out of the room when you leave! Other than that, the place was fantastic. Great walking distance to the main parkway, and anything else you would want to do! Great breakfast! Clean place!"

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."
