We booked this hotel after looking for one in Gatlinburg with an EV charging station. They do not have one even though the website we booked through said they did. Staff was very helpful and pleasant. Stairs to 2nd floor need repair and were somewhat dangerous. Elevator area was dirty. No coffee available until 8 a.m. Room was comfortable and adequate.

I really wanted to like this hotel. The staff at check in and out were friendly. The bed was very squeaky, but the mattress itself was comfortable. We did enjoy the fireplace. We checked out early because we could hear everything and everyone. The walls are paper thin. The TV didnt work. The person at the desk said he would fix it, but never came up after requesting it 3 times. When we checked out early no one asked why, or seemed to care at all. Overall the hotel seems rundown and in need of repairs.

River Edge Inn is a Bust

My wife and I began staying at River Edge Inn pre-Covid and loved it. But this doesn’t seem to be the same hotel post-Covid. My last two recent stays found equipment ( hair dryer & coffee maker) inoperative. When I reported the Kerig being inoperative the office manager implies I don’t know how to load the k cup. But what I dislike most is there being no housekeeping or resupplying your room without having to fill out a card, which in my case this week was misplaced by hotel staff. I also strongly dislike cold air blowing into the room from gaps under the door. I used to think this hotel was quaint and cute. Now I just think the hotel is cheap and outdated. I will not stay at River Edge Inn again in the future.

Romantic mountain getaway

The room was overall nice, and cozy. Older building, rehabbed to modern feel. Limited contact room service, no smoking close to the buildings, or on balconies. Close to the river, and in reasonable walking distance of most places on the main strip. Close to the entrance to Smokey Mountains National Park. Would stay there again
