So my wife and I booked on Expedia for our vacation. We stayed from April 24 through April 28 and I can tell you that I was not impressed at all. Our room 261 was right where the char lifts up the mountain was and people yelling until 10 at night is not cool. When we got here on the 24th and checked in the receptionist was too busy on her phone to even greet us. She was more worried about her conversation than she was with us. The whole time we stayed we never was greeted by staff and no staff member ever said hello or good morning to us. Another thing the beating and hammering from the construction guys below us was annoying as well. The breakfast was cold and you were only allowed one plate and the staff that was in charge of it watched how much you took. I will say the only good thing about this hotel was walk ability around Gatlinburg. It’s right in the middle of everything and that was great. I would not recommend this hotel if you want peace and quiet or if you want friendly staff. The price I paid I would have been better off at another hotel

We spoke to the personnel upon leaving. There was obvious debris on the floor behind the telephone table & debris behind the door in the bathroom. Dusting was lacking. We will not return.

Pros and Cons

Great location! Old hotel with updates. No refrigerator, microwave or hair blower in the rooms! Clean room! Comfortable bed! Spacious room! No view from our room (balcony)! Complimentary breakfast every morning but not kept at proper temp - eggs were always cool!

Please remember that this is a historic hotel built in 1937. Location is everything here, however this is NOT a soundproof hotel. You can hear literally everything. So, if you are a light sleeper like me, you will not rest here! But staff was amazing, breakfast, and location great!!!!

We enjoyed our stay at the Gatlinburg inn! Our only suggestion would be to add mini-fridges. Otherwise we had no issues. Thanks for the great stay!

Best Breakfast ever!

Wonderful hospitality and the best breakfast ever! homemade doughnuts and mini rhubarb loaves at checkout! And in spite of being in a busy area, the rooms were quiet. Bathrooms were updated and very nice. We liked the rich history displayed on the walls and log cabin feel.

Spring Break trip

We had a great time. We love the location of the Historical Gathering Inn as you can walk everywhere as it is right in the heart of downtown. We love staying here and we love the secure parking and breakfast.
