When we booked the room there wasn’t an impending snow storm, I was going to spend the weekend with my daughter have fun and experiment a place we’ve never been to. Then we woke up to an impending winter weather warning/advisory. Where the hotel was located, on a side of a mountain, there wasn’t any safe way to stay so we opted to go home after one night. There was no offer to refund or move the date to another time given/offered. This was not a great experience and will not book again. Also you have to check in at a totally different location to get your key. The room was dated with a few updates but still Very dated. The views made up for the lacking amenities. I would have definitely booked this location again but just overall a bad taste of not even reaching out to see if we wanted a refund or hold our booking for a later date when we checked out. Total disregard and didn’t care that were checking early didn’t even ask.

Room was not clean. Got up to the hotel to be told you have to walk about 6-8 minutes to a different hotel to check in. Room had a funky smell. Would not stay again was not worth what we paid.

The hotel sounds great - The Fabulous Chalet Inn. The hidden part is - owned by Econolodge. While this hotel does have decent sized rooms with views of Gatlinburg, the essence of Econolodge still rings true with cheap amenities and room fixings. The staff is nice tho so that’s a perk.

The people were nice, the area was good, but the room wasn’t great. They seemed to have very few customers and the room was a little jank. Definitely a good place if you’re on a budget, the bathroom was even pretty good, however the door frame was broken, the room had a old smell, and the lamps were very crusty and old looking. The walk to the room was weird too. It was kinda sketch tbh. Not very romantic. They also said that there are bears that visit that area very often, so be weary of that if you have kids especially.
