Hotel is great location. Kids loved the indoor pool/waterpark area. Perfect for them, the hours of the pool were convenient. The games in the game rooms however, didn’t work, 3 machines took our money. Do not recommend using any of those! Hotel breakfast was very good. Fresh coffee any time is convenient. Rooms were clean, pillows were comfortable. Perfect for our one night getaway. Lovely place for kids. Location from the Gatlinburg strip was great. Could walk to nearby restaurants and activities!

This place was great! They were very accommodating to our family and our 2 Malinois service dogs. They acted like our dogs were not even there! Our only negative was that about half of the available arcade games as well as their air hockey table was out of order with no signs on them. If they get these fixed I would say the Holiday Inn Downtown Gatlinburg is one tuff competitor to beat.

Rooms were clean, breakfast was good. Chose this hotel for the pool and slides, while it was open and running there was dark wet silicone/caulk EVERYWHERE. It got all over us, in between my childs toes, under his nails, on his hands and spread to me. I had to scrub our skin raw with mouthwash (alcohol) to get it off, the caulk under his nails wouldn't come out at all until his nails grew out the following week.

The best part the kids were allowed to be kids. They loved the water slides. Breakfast was so good, and a variety to choose from. They also had an area with claw machines. My 9yr old won 2 stuffed animals. One of the best hotels we have stayed at in awhile. Also it’s walking distance to down town area. We had a cool view of the bridge (lights up at night) and the space needle!
