Check in was very pleasant. The young lady that checked us in was very helpful. The only real complaint would be the hot water. We let it run a bit because it wasn’t getting warm but sadly, it never got warm and definitely not hot. Otherwise, a nice place to stay.

One of our favorite places to stay in Gatlinburg

We love the convenience of this place and stay at least once a year. It’s quirky and not super modern, but is charming, clean, and convenient. The service is always good, this trip was no exception, and we will definitely stay again when we’re in the area.

The hotel sounds great - The Fabulous Chalet Inn. The hidden part is - owned by Econolodge. While this hotel does have decent sized rooms with views of Gatlinburg, the essence of Econolodge still rings true with cheap amenities and room fixings. The staff is nice tho so that’s a perk.
