The Energy is Awesome Here!

This is where we will always stay when we visit Cherokee. We loved the staff. We loved the proximity to the park. It was beautiful, comfortable, clean. And sincerely the staff there- every one of them are top notch people, very kind and personable and accommodating. The hotel is beautiful with gorgeous flower boxes everywhere and an exquisite view of the mountains and sky. This is a very special place. Thank you for our visit!!

The only real complaint would be the slight musty smell when we entered the room. Bed was very comfortable. The rooms were mostly occupied, but all was quiet. Could use more handicap parking. We will stay again.

Place was fine except for the room was especially humid, and there was no vent fan in the bathroom to help after showers so that just made it worse. Convenience to the casino and okay breakfast is the good.
