Top Traffic Light #5 Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"The property is conveniently located in downtown Gatlinburg and easy access to shops, attractions and restaurants. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Room is spacious with plenty of storage space, and a table to eat. With most requests, such as extra towel and blanket, housekeeping delivered quickly. Staffs all very friendly, and check-in was also very quick. I somehow had a vision that Margaritaville is considered lower-end in the room decor, services and facility amenities, but I was wrong. I really think it is a higher-end caliber resort and would definitely come back again."
