Overall, I think this place could be an absolute gem without too much money. It's in a TERRIFIC location - close to the parkway, but far enough away to feel peaceful. It's on the end easiest to getting into the park. There is food a short walk away. It could have a cute/groovy retro vibe, but it looks like no one has cared about it in so long, but they just let it limp along. First, there was no one attending in the lobby - it was locked and empty. There was a sign with a number to call for "check in or emergencies." That said, it was very easy to check in and get a code for the door. But it's weird to know there is no one on site. I've never experienced that before, and I didn't love it (althought nothing bad happened). I think whover is managing it is doing so with multiple properties, and in this economy, I think they are making the right choice to save money. BUT-with some interior choices like paint and artwork, this place could be seen as more cool/retro and "nice" than it is. The photos in the ad are obviously of the nicest, best room, but our was much more drab. Small things: Our faucet needed a new aerator and the door of the bathroom was pretty beat up. Weed smell. Oldl wood paneling was in great shape, but could have been upgraded with a color wash or paint. Overall, it felt drab, tired, and ignored in there, which gives you a "stale" feel while you're there. Exterior maint. a must. Plus: large minifridge, microwave, TV, Internet -all good. It could be amazing.

The door was taped. Door was completely broken. Room smelled like there was mold. Floor was not vacuumed. The bed was hard as a rock. Desk clerk was even in the office when we arrived. You had to call a number to check in. The clerk acted like I was the problem when I didn’t want to give my credit card for there $1 holding fee. Very sketchy. You could barely understand what he was saying. The lobby what you could see looked like a dump. Multiple missing light bulbs. 4 bags of trash just setting behind the counter. The only marking lot had no light. More holes in the parking lot than Swiss cheese. It had rained so our feet were soaked because you couldn’t tell where there was water an not. Because the parking lot was not lit. We had to get another hotel because of how gross this hotel was. Will not ever return.

This place was exactly what we wanted - a cheap room to sleep in and nothing more. It satisfied that requirement, and that was it. As long as you approach it with reasonable expectations, you won't be disappointed. The place is seriously outdated, poorly maintained, and not particularly attractive. Given that it was about 1/3 the cost of any other room in Gatlinburg, that was OK with us. The place is unstaffed after about 5 in the afternoon, or in our case, 3 in the afternoon. That said, the hotel staff communicated well and the check-in was effortless. We were also given a contact number at another property if we had any problems. The room was clean (except for the empty pretzel bag behind one of the nightstands) and everything worked. Microwave and refrigerator are provided. The bed was comfortable enough, and there were no insects or other vermin to be seen. The carpet looks like is came out of the early 1960s, and may or may not have been clean, but either way, it should have been replaced a decade or two ago. My poor wife, who isn't nearly as tolerant of hotel conditions as I am, was a little creeped out by the place, but it was OK, as I said, for what we needed. On the plus side, it's probably about a five minute walk from Gatlinburg's main drag. Keep your expectations in line and you'll be satisfied. Expect a Hilton and you won't.

Not a great experience.

This stay was booked through Hotels.com. When we arrived, there was no attendant. A note on the door told us to calla phone number to check in. When i called, the lady asked for a credit card for incidentals. After i gave the information, I was told there would be extra fees charged to that card. The booking sight states that all charges are included and upfront. The attendant told me that was not a true statement. We have stayed at this location multiple times and have never been charged additional fees. In my opinion, people should be made aware of the fees upon booking. Also, this should be divulged prior to asking for credit card information. So, future trips to Gatlinburg will not include Belle Aire.
