The Helendorf is an older hotel with unique architecture. The room was very clean, hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast area is cute and clean. Breakfast consisted of pre packaged items but had good variety. The hotel is in downtown Helen with shopping and restaurants nearby in walking distance.
By far the best bed i have slept in while traveling! The only thing is that the pool is heated but the room it is in is not so the water doesn’t get very warm. Otherwise the view from the room is beautiful and it is literally a quick walk to everything!
Our first stay at the Helendorf but not to Helen. This property was in the perfect location and everything was so easy while we were there. Highly recommend.

The hotel location near town and right by the river was great. The hotel is old and pretty shabby. Front desk help was apathetic (except guy on last day of our stay). Housekeeping was friendly and helpful but only clean rooms by special arrangement. Breakfast was prepackaged and unappealing. COVID should no longer be used as an excuse for bad service and poor quality. I would stay here again but it definitely doesn't deserve a 9 out of 10 rating as indicated on Expedia site
Excellent place, the place is close to everything you might need to shop or eat. The staff was super friendly and the breakfast options varied. Overall, great stay😊😊
