Wonderful

The property itself was fine. My problem centered more around the staff. I was initially assigned a room through Expedia with certain amenities within the room. When I arrived, the bed size was not as promised and a sofa bed was also advertised as in the room. When I inquired about this I was told that all third parties were made aware of the changes in the room and should have advertised accordingly. I attempted to address this issue the next day and staff did provide another room, but with two double beds rather than one king bed and the amenities that I needed. Although this sounds incredibly petty the issue is I saw inside the room down the hall from me (housekeeping was cleaning the room) and saw the exact room I was originally assigned. I found the staff to be dismissive and quite frankly, didn’t tell the truth and passed blame on to others. For the price I paid to stay (over $1500), I expected better customer service. I’ve already written a recap of my stay with this hotel and did receive a personal response from HR. It was explained that the issue would be addressed internally. Finally I will say that I have used this hotel in other locations and it has been a perfectly fine stay. Perhaps further training in house with staff may need to be considered. As I think about it, I was walking out of the hotel one morning and another guest was upset and trying to explain to another employee their issue. I do wonder why so many of these issues took place within days apart.
Do not get breakfast here. Expensive but takes a very long time to arrive with a lot of confusion in the kitchen. Happened on all 3 days we stayed there.
Liked how well the property was maintained, and its convenience to downtown Gatlinburg. Did not like that the hotel suddenly started charging for parking.

Checking in they tried to put me in a handicap room and not tell us room was paid in advance to..When I got in the room it was terrible smelled like a old folks home and bed was low and the couch and bigger room was not there..
So I called front desk and they tried to give me the run around saying they didn't know who I booked with and I cut her off right and told this will not do I want my room or We would go elsewhere....Then their attitude changed and we got our nice room.....The trees and bushes in the courtyard were way past needing a trimming...This is a great hotel but they must have changed managers for we having been staying here for 6 or 7 years now....And it has changed...
A short walk to all the stores, activities, and restaurants. Nice court yard for outdoor sitting. View from the back overlooks an ugly parking lot. Food overpriced at the coffee bar. Good pancake house right next door.

That hottub has no stairs and the wood over it was broken and the bathroom didn't have any safety measures either. Overall though staff was great and place was clean.
We stay here every Fourth of July!! a beautiful hotel with excellent amenities and so close to all the action on the parkway. The guest services are always so friendly and this year we got a balcony room loved it.!! Highly recommend
We came to this hotel after having a terrible experience at the one we originally planned to stay at along our journey. The difference was night and day. The Marriott was clean, beautiful, in the heart of town, and had an amazing staff.

Great location to enjoy the town. Hotel was clean and well maintained.
Room was dirty. Sheets not changed; found multiple items from previous occupant, dirty rag on the shower. Rarely had person at front desk. Hot tub gave one of our family a rash
Booked room on through Hotels.com. Room was nice with only a couple of items needing repairs which did not interfere with our stay. Great view from the balcony. With this being said I would not book with them again due to a $15 per day parking fee. I did not see this fee on website when booking or I would have passed. It's not like they have covered parking that would justify the extra charge. Desk clerk told us the parking fee was being charged all around and they were last one to implement this, however when checking with two other places we normally stay they do not have a parking fee.
