Gatlinburg Inn

Had a wonderful historic Inn. Rustic and charming. Excellent location, in the middle of all the amazing shopping and attractions. Had a beautiful view from my room 126. Fabulous free breakfast in the mornings. Charming porch with rocking chairs and a fire place to sit and relax. I will stay here again. Reasonably priced compared to other hotels. A true destination experience.

Our stay was great! I would definitely recommend. The hotel was very clean and the staff was wonderful. I would have to say that the rooms could use a bit of updating. I think keeping the vibe of the oldest hotel in Gatlinburg is great, but a furniture reboot could be done while keeping the vibe. The parking lot in the front of the hotel is horrible. It’s incredibly tight if you are driving anything bigger than a car or compact suv. I believe it should be required that all full size suvs, vans, etc be parking in the back. Otherwise, this was a wonderful stay!

We have stayed here twice because the location is ideal and the staff is wonderful. We realize that the goal is to appreciate the history of the property and absolutely do appreciate the lobby and common areas. The rooms however do need updating. The 70's paneling is not original to the property and the smell in the rooms is overwhelming. We kept our balcony door open while in the room but still suffered from headaches due to the smell. The bathrooms were updated and are very nice. It would benefit the ratings if the bedroom spaces were as well.

Never had to drive once. Could go play, eat, and drink and still make it back to my hotel. Great location and staff. Definitely one of the only places I'd stay at in the Gatlinburg.

The Historic Gatlinburg Inn was wonderful. Tons of history and you felt like you were back 50 yrs, yet had a modern feel to it! We had a balcony room and many of the furnishings in our room are originals in excellent condition. They had a free hot breakfast that was excellent. Fireplaces throughout. Great friendly people working there. We highly recommend this place for your stay in Gatlinburg!

The hotel was very quaint and cozy, it felt like we went back in time about 50 years! Several fireplaces were burning in the lobby / sitting areas and one outside on the front porch near numerous rocking chairs. The rooms were also decorated with antique furnishings but the bathrooms were updated which was nice. The hot water in the shower was the best I’ve experienced in a hotel! There were two rocking chairs on our balcony which were comfortable and made a nice spot to enjoy the evening air. Parking was easy and convenient. The hotel was within walking distance to everything we wanted to do in Gatlinburg. Would definitely recommend if you want to be steps away to the shops and restaurants.

My husband and I loved the retro feel of stepping back in time from the moment we stepped in the lobby. The friendly staff; history within those walls; the furnishings and decor, all are reminiscence of a simpler era. It has the feel of a mountain ski lodge in the 1940's, and, we loved all of the common areas, which are so rare in today's modern hotels that are all about cramming in more rooms to bring in $$$, instead of bringing people together in comfortable gathering spots around warm fireplaces (and there are several of these scattered around the lobby area, dining rooms, even outside under the covered porch). They were especially appreciated since we had extremely cold temps and snow while we were there for the long weekend!! How are the beds in a historic hotel with antique furnishings? LIKE HEAVEN!! I slept better than I do at home on that comfy mattress!! The location is wonderful! Centrally located on the main parkway, so a stroll in either direction is quick and easy, and gets to you to unique shops, great restaurants, and lots of fun entertainment!! Parking was easy, and we never moved our vehicle due to the convenient location. We just can't say enough about our experience at Gatlinburg Inn, and can't wait for our next visit!!

We stayed here for the location but fell in love with the quaint vibes of the place. The rooms were comfortable and decorated in an authentically vintage taste. The free breakfast was good. Hotel staff were friendly and accommodating, although a little lazy at the front desk. Would definitely stay here again. Wish there was a hot tub, though.

I picked this hotel because it was located next to the sky lift and space needle. The location was perfect, staff was friendly, breakfast was on point and the bed was comfy. My only negative remark would be the walls are paper thin and our neighbors snored so loud it was hard to sleep.
