The Historic Gatlinburg Inn

2.5 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (1030)
"I really enjoyed my experience at the Gatlinburg Inn and appreciate the historic value of the property. However, as with many older properties, I learned that the walls are paper thin. I also learned that the man in the next room had untreated sleep apnea. I guess the upside of that is that I never felt alone! I recommend staying at the Gatlinburg Inn just be aware it’s a bit of a communal experience!"

"Expected a little more updated room. They did move me and the service sesk has excellent staff. Our secind room was a basic 1 queen bed room. Needs updated for sure. Make sure you book for a creekside room with balcany if you prefer a nicer room. Walk is about .8 mile to the main strip. Trip to strip is downhill which means back to you room is uphill. There is a trolley thatbcame by but we never used it. Pool area is nice. Would stay again just on the regukar resort side nor the courtyard...
