Top Rainbow Falls Hotel Reviews

Best Western Johnson's Inn Downtown Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay! The room was exceptionally clean and quiet. Since the hotel is located right in downtown Gatlinburg, we saved a lot on parking fees and could easily walk to everything. As an added bonus, we even spotted a bear in the parking lot!""

Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The experience was wonderful"

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"All was well with the stay"

The Park Vista - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"The room and the property were clean and well maintained but the hotel itself needs some updates. The AC needs an update, had the room set at 68 but never got down past 71. At one point it hit 75. Rooms need minor updates such as wallpaper fixes but that’s not a big deal to me. Mountain views were incredible, definitely worth the upgrade to a mountain view room. Overall I would probably book again"

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

8/10 Good

"N/A"

Glenstone Lodge

8/10 Good

"Quiet and conveniently located. The entrance has a nice Alpine, rustic feel, and check-in was seamless. The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming, and the lobby is attractive and well maintained. The rooms, however—or at least ours—felt dated and a bit run-down and could definitely use some updating. We spent most of our time outside the hotel, so that really wasn’t a major issue for us. Overall, it was a comfortable and convenient place to stay, but if having a modern, updated room is a deal-breaker for you, you may want to look elsewhere."

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome!!! Clean extremely roomy rooms great food at the bar. My husband said the wings were some of the best he has ever had. Convenient to everything. Great!! Staff was amazing."

Embassy Suites By Hilton Gatlinburg Resort

8/10 Good

"The room carpet would require shampoo and cleaning, guessing it was post the summer break, bad had to wear slippers as our feet became sticky"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Gatlinburg Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"A Lovely Hotel meeting our needs. Clean room w/ great bed. Quietness which was Wonderful. Served a great breakfast. Staff so helpful meeting our needs. Last year we were blessed to see 2 big bears in the parking lot @ night; missed them this year. We give our recommendations."
