The remodel on the lower level was great for me, however my husband missed the old look. It was one of the reasons he loved staying there lol. It was very nice. The area of Townsend is so relaxing!

Cozy and Affordable
This motel was very cozy and affordable. I wasn't sure about having an exterior corridor, but the location eased my mind. The cleaning crew did a fantastic job and the lady at the front desk was delightful. Townsend is the best kept secretbin the Smokies.

We love this little gem! My son and I look forward to staying here whenever we get to the mountains and we had a great time once again! The rooms are nice--spacious, clean, and comfortable. The upper pool is our new favorite spot now that we realized it's heated!! We hadn't used it before but we really loved it after a day in the park! We didn't want to come home and my son asked the whole way if we could just go back to the hotel!!

We stay at the Riverbreeze every time we take a trip to the smokies, we are avid hikers and you can’t get any closer to the National Park. Clean, quiet, and wonderful staff.

We stayed for 7 days. Housekeeping only cleaned our room once, the other times we had to ask for towels and trash removal. The owners are very nice and helpful! We will be back again. Just hope the housekeeping situation is better our next visit.

Wonderful hotel
Perfect location close to everything. Super clean and newly updated rooms. Definitely the best hotel of the vacation. No it’s not a resort. But superbly decorated and amazing location. Loved it and sent name to relatives who would also enjoy. Sharing with friends.
