We had a wonderful stay. We love this hotel especially the rustic feel and creek side balconies! Love the huge breakfast room. Eggs or bacon or sausage would have been nice instead of biscuits and pancakes - double carb meal. We love the Brookside and will be back!

A Cabin feel
Excellent service, friendliness, cozy room, beautiful environment. Quiet. Peaceful. Continental breakfast very good. It gives the feel of being in a cabin but is a hotel. I would recommend a stay there.

Nice room with a good view. Breakfast was just okay. No eggs and the gravy for the biscuits was very tasteless. The main problem is that the breakfast doesn’t start until 8. That is way too late for anyone wanting an early start in GSMNP.

Brookside Lodge
Overall, the stay at Brookside had some pros and some cons. We had 4 rooms for 3 nights, and the location was very nice with the brook in the back. We really enjoyed that. The rooms, however were quite dated. The floors were so dirty that all the kids and adults who walked around their rooms barefoot had BLACK feet. They really need to replace the carpets. The cleaning crew completely skipped 2 of the 4 rooms on the first day, no apparent reason for that. Nothing was left on beds to prevent them from doing a cursory cleaning. The second day, we had to tell them to clean and even then they really only gave towels and made the bed, and emptied garbage. Sinks and bathrooms were not cleaned, the soap marks were not wiped up for example. We weren't super dirty so we survived, however if customers are paying for these services they should really receive them. It would be nice if they put a bit into upgrading the rooms for future visitors, since their location and brook are so nice. Front desk staff was nice.

This was a beautiful place to stay. It is off the main drag so it’s like your hiding in woods in the mountain with a little river flowing by. Loved it! Will definitely be returning.

My stay at the hotel was overall fine, but the breakfast was really disappointing. There were no eggs, and the options were overly focused on pastries, with too much flour-based food. The food lacked flavor and didn’t meet the standard I was expecting, which affected the overall experience. I hope they can improve the quality of their breakfast in the future.

What I did like was a lot of parking spaces, it had an elevator, it included breakfast, and I had a balcony that faced a scenic view of the creek. Also, the gentleman that checked us in was very polite and nice. What I did not like was that we were only given two pillows and no blanket just an old bedspread. When we asked for two other pillows, the desk staff acted like it was an inconvenience. The rooms were somewhat outdated but clean.
