Great Downtown hotel for families

Perfect hotel for families. The indoor pool/waterpark is a wonderful perk for kids. Even my teenagers enjoyed the 2 bigger slides. The free breakfast was also surprisingly good with something for everyone. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Very nice ! Basic but what was nice was the pool. It was a clean hotel and good breakfast! Very close to the man strip but on a hot day the walk felt further.. 15 mins to the aquarium which again not bad but it was almost 80 when we were there.

We had a great stay. The kids enjoyed the water slides. My only complaint was they had no towels un the pool area! It was a super convenient and easy walk right to the strip in Gatlinburg.

My family of 5 LOVED this hotel! The breakfast each morning was delicious. The kids enjoyed the pool and played for hours. The staff was so kind and attentive. Best location if going to the Convention Center and easy to walk to the main strip. We would definitely stay here again.
