Downtown Gatlinburg

Downtown Gatlinburg bursts with family-friendly fun at every turn. The neon-lit Parkway buzzes with Ripley's attractions, arcades, and mini-golf courses against a stunning Smoky Mountain backdrop. Stroll between taffy shops and moonshine distilleries while mountain views peek between buildings. SkyLift and Anakeesta offer treetop adventures for those seeking heights and sights. Hotels with mountain-themed décor sit just minutes from the action. Grab pancakes at breakfast houses or sample local BBQ as you explore. The trolley connects major spots during peak seasons, but most visitors prefer discovering the pedestrian-friendly strip on foot.

Chalet Village

Chalet Village offers the perfect mountain escape with rustic wooden cabins tucked into the forested hills above Gatlinburg. Your mornings start with misty mountain views from a private deck, while evenings mean soaking in a hot tub under the stars. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park sits practically at your doorstep, with hiking trails and wildlife just minutes away. Most cabins come with full kitchens for cozy home-cooked meals after exploring. Downtown Gatlinburg's restaurants and shops are just a short drive down winding mountain roads.

Gatlinburg Town Square

8/10 Good

"Property was clean, room was nice. Disappointed outdoor pool was closed and didn’t know that. Would recommend black out curtains. Parking a full size truck is tricky."

Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful hotel. With it being new, they are still working out some kinks, but you can tell they are trying to make sure everyone has a good stay. The restaurant was great! We purchased breakfast with the reservation and were able to eat at the restaurant each morning at no additional cost. The room had great design, nice lighting and a great view. Walking distance to the strip. The pool area is awesome, parking was easy and they have Starbucks in the lobby! Would definitely come again!"

Hampton Inn Gatlinburg Historic Nature Trail

8/10 Good

"This is not their fault but I hate the trendy sliding bathroom doors, the don’t have privacy like traditional doors and the gaps in the side are just not something I like especially with kids in the room. Also when did not having exhaust fan become a thing the last 6 places I’ve stayed had no exhaust fans in the bathroom. I find this odd and kind of gross. Also you can’t turn the porch light off, strange. The wife and I found this annoying as bugs at night were an issue. Other than that it was a good stay and can’t complain otherwise."
