We enjoyed our stay here. We had adjoining rooms for a large family, and it was perfect. We were close to Cherokee without having to stay in that part of town. The staff was very nice and friendly. We could not have had a better place for a short stay.

Big Disappointment

The king-size room was TINY. The Toilet was toddler-size, with no Grab bar. We needed to help each other off! There was no elevator and breakfast offering was minimlal. Needless to say will never visit again

Great hotel for Polar Express train ride

This one was surprisingly delightful. Went a couple weeks before Christmas for the Polar express train ride. The hotel was very well decorated. The staff was super friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The only complain that I have is: it's a smoke free hotel but someone was smoking and the odor in the hallway was bad. Otherwise it was impressive and I'd stay again in the future.

Walking up and down those steps, bringing your luggage in without an elevator was treacherous. The bathroom was made for small people. My husband had a hard time being 6 foot tall overall the experience to Bryson city was extremely nice.
