Very cute little hotel. My only complaint is beds were not comfortable and it said they were dbl beds but felt much smaller. Staff was very friendly, location was perfect for what we wanted.

As a history buff, the Inn has a lot. It’s almost like a time capsule rich with local and world events and snapshots into the past with just enough modern amenities. The location is central to everything and the full breakfast cannot be beat. The staff is friendly and helpful. What other place gives you a homemade pastry when you check out? We won’t stay anywhere else
Have been to Gatlinburg so many times and always wanted to stay here due to the location and how cute it looked! Only issue was I wish we would have known major work was being done on 2nd floor was quite loud when u wanted to sleep in.
We absolutely love this hotel. The charm and history here sets it apart from the rest. Its a perfect location to walk to all that Gatlinburg has to offer. The staff are all very sweet. The front porch is great especially in the winter with the fireplace to keep you warm. The breakfast in the morning is delicious.
My husband and I love this property. Employees are very helpful and professional. We love the bed, so comfy. My husband and I will not stay any place else.
Would give 4.5 stars if an option. Loved this hotel! Staff was so kind and helpful. Breakfast was amazing and free! So many cute details. Felt like I was at home. The bead was really comfy. Rocking chairs on the balconies. They even gave us a blueberry muffin/loaf at checkout! I’ll always stay here from now on while in Gatlinburg! The only reason I would take off a half star is because I wish they had mini fridges in the rooms.
Friendly helpful staff. Very clean great location. Very nice to stay in a family mom and pops hotel where they really care about how your taken care of and treated. Not just the bottom line
