Gatlinburg Traffic Light #1 Hotels

"Everything was great"

"Friendly staff to greet you. Beautiful grounds. Very nice room, just wasn't quite clean from last guests. Stuff spilt on carpet, and balcony, left over guest clothing under living room items. Otherwise i will stay again. Bit of a walk to downtown but doable. "

"Even though you’re on the hill, you’re still really close to many things! Plus the free trolley also goes to the door several times a day to pick up and drop off"

"I have stayed at this resort several times starting in 2023 and always loved the place. I most recently booked a reservation through Expedia for my stay at the Gatlinburg, TN Margaritaville Resort and was checking in on 11/24/26 and checking out on 11/26/26. Upon my arrival, I was informed by the desk clerk that there was a new mandatory $15 per day parking fee for a total of $30 for my stay. I had not been informed of the new fee with my online booking prior to my arrival and it was not listed on the Margaritaville website. Upon checkin, it was too late to cancel my booking. I understand that additional fees are sometimes necessary but they all need to be disclosed at the time of booking. I'm very disappointed"

"Brand new and perfect 👌 "

"First room was uncleaned. Dirt and food still on the counter. Nasty. Second room was a little better but dead stink bugs, alive ones, smelled of smoke all the time and dirty washcloths with blood under the sink"

"I brought a large group to stay here, about seven rooms with fourteen people in total. The highlights of our stay were the breakfast, the location, and the friendliness of the staff. The hotel itself is older and somewhat worn. The main issue we encountered was that one of the rooms had not been cleaned thoroughly. However, given the location and the price, I still believe the hotel offers good value."

"Very close by "

"Room (209) was fairly clean. Back door to balcony seem old, rickety and easily broken in to, furniture was dusty. Air conditioning worked. Parking was ok. No staff on property when we arrived. No staff on property after 7pm. Had to check in through hotel next door. But it served it's purpose for one night."
