Top Rainbow Falls Hotel Reviews

Margaritaville Resort Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk was very helpful. Property is beautiful"

Edgewater Hotel - Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Great location friendly staff room was clean and comfortable nice variety of items for breakfast great location to see bears in the stream right outside of the hotel. Our only complaint is tight parking space,slow elevators especially during the day when cleaning staff is going between floors and the bed height, I’m 5’2 and had a difficult time getting into bed. All in all would definitely stay there again."

Sidney James Mountain Lodge

8/10 Good

"The stay was good for the money. I wished I had used the pools. The outdoor pool water looked clean. The indoor pool looked like a lot of fun. That will have to wait until my wife and I return. Don’t be concerned about the distance to town. Gatlinburg has a free shuttle with an app that is accurate at telling you the arrival time at your location. The food was surprisingly good and although the breakfast wasn’t free it was a much better tasting breakfast than the free ones, real food. The lunch was also quite good. I think it’s the girls that cook the food. Kind of like their still in there kitchen at home. What a convenience to be able to get something good to eat without going into town. I’m praising them so much, now I can’t wait to get back to Gatlinburg. Hope the fishing in the Smokies is better. LOL!"

Embassy Suites By Hilton Gatlinburg Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are spacious and there are plenty of common areas on site to unwind."

Bear Creek Inn

8/10 Good

"Everything was great except the balcony situation. They are right next to adjacent room balconies with no privacy. I would suggest installing some kind of barrier between them. We probably won't stay here again because of this issue."

Hampton Inn Gatlinburg Historic Nature Trail

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was awsome"

Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stay!!! So clean and nice. We had asked for more coffee and got decaf and front staff (Sarah) went and got it herself and made sure we had regular!!!"

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent except the parking was a little tight"

Gatlinburg Town Square

8/10 Good

"We were in a 1 bedroom condo during our stay. The room was great, however there were a few things that need to be checked out such as the hairdryer/nightlight outlet didn’t work at all, had to dry my hair at the kitchen bar, the hand held shower didn’t work at all (yes, I pressed the button and tried adjusting the pressure switch on the handheld but that didn’t work either), and the water pressure from the overhead shower was kinda low. Other than that, everything was great!"
