Was very enjoyable, a bit more of a walk than I intended but no problem. The only downsides was the breakfast and also the building across the creek at the end of the buildings. Kind of killed the view but as long as you looked up towards the rest of the hotel and not directly across, it was beautiful. I might stay again but the breakfast does make it or break it for me. The attendant was very hospitable so it's nothing on him but no variety at all when it comes to the food, just bread in different forms.. biscuits, pancakes, bagels and cereal. Especially considering everything else is so expensive in the area.

We were looking for a clean, peaceful getaway and it just didn’t happen. I ended up making the beds every day except one, since the maids kept coming before 10:00 am to clean and they wouldn’t come back, when we asked for only 15 minutes. They did manage one day to stop in, and they left the towels on the bed, they threw the comforters up near the pillows, and left the sheet hanging down touching the floor. They failed to vacuum and the floor clearly had crumbs on it. Trying to enjoy a peaceful time on the balcony listening to the creek, and all of the sudden a strong smell of marijuana came from the balcony above. Although they advertised as a non/ smoking facility, you are allowed to smoke on the balcony. Breakfast was the same thing 3 days in a row, so we ended up eating out. And the hair in the gravy kind of sealed the deal for us on not going back to breakfast. The floors to our rooms were so disgusting. The elevators were just as bad. Bumble bee nests were everywhere as you walked to the elevators. I don’t normally complain, but I just feel that others should be aware of what they may encounter.

When we arrived they put us in a room and the heat did not work the knob was broken and wasn’t even hidden just broke and it was 35 outside, plus the phone didn’t work so I had to use my cell to call the front desk, the. The 2nd room they put us in was supposed to be no smoking and it was not, the room smelled like smoke very bad, the 3rd too Was better but the walls were paper thin and the people next door was up all night, it was a very bad experience

We loved our stay at Brookside Lodge!! We couldn’t stop calling it a hotel!! We had a blast and will be back soon for more fun here.. the view was stunning from the property. We had a 2 queen bed suite with Creekside views. The room was amazing. The creek was so peaceful. It felt like home and that is something that you don’t see in most places especially when traveling. We will for sure be back in the future staff was super friendly and attentive to whatever we needed. This was our first time in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge and it won’t be our last. Im almost sad to come home we had so much fun here!!
