Room was perfect. However, there was an unpleasant smell at our floor. You can't smell it inside the room but once you are at the hallway, it will hit your nose.

In town for the railroad.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was clean. The continental breakfast offered waffles, pastries, toast and cereal. We were in town for the Smoky Mountain Railroad in Bryson City, which is about 20 minutes away. The hotel was a good value and its location fit our needs.

It was older hotel but it was clean and fairly reasonable rates. The staff were very nice and helpful. The only issue was the toilet was wobbly.

Love My Bay!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Bay Mountain Inn. Every time I attend the annual Cherokee Powwow, I book this hotel. The staff is friendly, professional, helpful, and available. The establishment and room were spotless and comfortable. It is conveniently located next to the old Cherokee High School where the powwow event is held. This is my second year coming to the powwow, and when I return next year, guess where I'm staying!
