I was looking for a pet friendly hotel with a balcony view of the creek and a pull out couch. They had it all plus a nice gym, pool, hot tub and a beautiful sitting area around the fire with a view of the creek, relaxing and just what i needed.

The hotel is very good, but I didn't like the breakfast very much, perhaps because of the holidays and the large number of people... What I didn't like was having to pay for parking. I've stayed at other hotels in Gatlinburg five times before and they never charged me extra for parking.

The room was great big and spacious but the water was cold or to hot no in between. The area for the dogs to go the bathroom was smaller than my truck bed.
