Pigeon Forge Hotels with Balcony

This hotel should be the standard that every single Marriott aspires to! We are Bonvoy Gold members and travel a lot. Through the years, our family of four has stayed at dozens of Marriotts up and down the entire east coast, and while some are better than others, this one sets the bar above and beyond. From the moment we pulled up, we were impressed. The facade of this hotel is beautiful. The grounds were pristine and the landscaping was really pretty. Parking was easy and convenient, something we really appreciated after a 12 hr car ride from New York. When we stepped inside, the lobby took our breath away. The decor is gorgeous. It is very modern with rustic touches and everything is immaculate. They pipe their citrusy signature scent throughout the entire hotel and it smells absolutely amazing! Check in was super easy and the front desk staff was really friendly and helpful, answering all of our questions. I was also equally impressed with our room. For anyone who has read some of my previous reviews, you know that I bring my own cleaning supplies with me to go over the room whenever we stay at a hotel, and a lot of times, the Clorox wipes and Swiffer pads come off the surfaces filthy. Not here. This place is CLEAN!! I am very particular about this, so if you are reading this review and you are a clean freak too, you can trust me that this hotel will totally meet your standards. The room furnishings are pretty new and the carpets are clean. We got a room with two queens and a sofa seating area, since my husband planned to work from the room each morning, and there was plenty of space for the 4 of us. There was a small fridge (my only complaint was that it was too small, it only fit a few bottles of water, no room for dinner leftovers which my teens enjoy having in the room in case they are hungry during off meal times). There is also a microwave. The bathroom was a good size and also very clean. What really sets this hotel apart from others is the amenities. This hotel was designed for families and for comfort. It really is like a home away from home. There are so many cozy seating areas all over the grounds, a huge stone fireplace in the lobby with the fire going at most times, two fire pit areas, lots of seating to eat, a courtyard with cornhole games, two pools (an indoor pool, as well as the amazing lazy river pool), a hot tub, an arcade game room, a bar and a lounge area in the lobby with a giant connect four game on the coffee table. Throughout our 4 day stay, there were cleaning people in every area of the hotel all day. I really cannot say enough how impressed I was by the level of care that goes into maintaining this hotel. Even the elevators and the water stations in the lobby were immaculate at all times. The location was great, right on the parkway, only minutes from all of the main attractions. I will absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone I know who is interested in visiting the area. This was probably the

Had an overall pleasant stay at this nice hotel. My wife and I decided to come in for a three day weekend and spend some time in the pigeon Forge area. I will say overall we had a pleasant experience at the hotel. The bar and restaurant was nice. The room overall was nice although the HVAC can get quite noisy and that really needs to be addressed. Also, we paid for a balcony view of the river and yes, it is a view of the river, but overall it’s just kind of a muddy looking river and a major construction site right behind it. I wouldn’t pay the extra for that particular room if I am ever back in pigeon Forge again. I would stay at this hotel again though. The room was nice. Bathroom was very nice and the beds were very comfortable. Overall a very pleasant stay.

The hotel location is good on the main street, there are many parking spaces, the twin room has a lot of space, the sound insulation is good, and the bed is large and comfortable. Breakfast is simple and rough, American food is sweet and sweet.

On 9-11-22 at we contacted 865-429-8500 to schedule a room at Hilton Home2 Suites for our family and children, one child having special needs. We needed a kitchen, particularly a means to heat food and the ability to sleep at least one autisic child in a seperate bedroom that had a means to be seperated by a door. So we called specifically to make sure there were no surprises when we arrived as the website was confusing.... pertaining to us making sure we had the appropriate amenities and room layout. When we called the above phone number the male on the phone quickly advised all the rooms with a seperate bunk bed room were filled at the Home 2 suites, but he would check what was available at the Tru Hilton. We later learn that there is no such thing as seperate bunk bed rooms at the Home 2 Suites location and that these two hotels are right next to each other. The associate then advised that he did have a room meeting our needs at the Tru by Hilton and that it did indeed have a seperate room for sleeping and a door. We were also advised that we would have a kitchen in the room, which was reiterated throughout the call. We booked the room, for 9-12-22, with us departing the following morning, 9-13-22. On 9-12-22, while driving to the Hotel from several hours away we noted the confirmation email was incorrect stating we would arrive on the 11th and leave on the 12th and that we erroneously already had our stay. My wife called and the mistake was eventually able to be corrected allegedly for the same room and amenities. Upon arrival, we checed in and we went to our room to find that it was a single bedroom with a king bed and no seperate room, no kitchen at all. I went back down to the front desk an spoke with the staff who I will not name on here. I told them we do not have the amenities or room we were promised. I advised that it was frustrating as this was the 2nd mix up and I was concerned about being billed for the previous erroenous reservation. I was quickly lectured that this hotel is a franchise and that all the errors were the fault of ”central”. I then said if there is not a room available at this point how do we rectify this and I was advised again, this hotel was a franshise and I would have to essentially take up matters elsewhere, assumingly with this so-called ”central”. The associate then said they did find a room on another floor and issued me new room keys. I gathered our family, belongings and children all up and went from the 5th floor down to the 3rd floor to our new room. Upon entering the room we were relieved to see the additonal bunk bed room, but then quickly discovered there was no kitchen as we were promised explicitly on the phone when initially making the reservations. I immediately headed down to the front desk and stated this room does not have a kitchen, at which time, I was advised they do not have kitchens in the rooms, but they do have them at the Home 2 suites hotel. I was lectured ag

We travelled from NKY for a weekend of soccer. The Inn By The River was so accommodating and helpful that we will definitely be staying here next time. They helped arrange rooms all together for 50+ people, equipment, food etc. We had NO issues or complaints when we left.

My wife and kids enjoyed our stay at the Holiday Inn and Suites Pigeon Forge. The Facilities were very clean and modern. I noticed the pillows and bed felt comfortable and we all slept well. It is in a great location if you have kids being around a lot of things to do. The hotel itself also seemed very kid friendly. We would stay again!

I wouldn't pay to stay here again. Here is a list of Pros/Cons: Pros: ~Close to the Parkway ~The view of the mountains from our room was spectacular Cons: ~The hotel was dated, and tired looking including our room. Old fixtures, worn furniture in the lobby, etc ~Wifi did not work in our room on the 6th floor. ~The bed was INCREDIBLY noisy and mattress springs could be easily felt when lying down ~There were some stains on the comforter in between the sheets, looked like a bit of old blood. (looked like it had been laundered and dried on) ~The breakfast was supposed to be hot, but the heaters must not have been working since all the ”hot” items were about room temperature. There was no fresh fruit, bacon, toast, etc. Plates were styrofoam/plastic utensils. I expected better for what we paid to stay there. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place. It wasn't horrible, but there are definitely better options for the price point. I'm glad we only had to stay one night there.

My family's favorite place to stay in the Smoky Mountains. Indoor swimming pool and hot tub, employee service, and location is the best. I always recommend this place to friends and family. Can't wait to go back!

The hotel is very large, on the edge of the Pigeon Valley National Road, it is very convenient to come from the Great Smoky Mountain Forest Park. It feels that a whole lot of commercials belong to this hotel. The rooms are large and very beautiful. There are various commercial and amusement buildings downstairs. Facilities, parking is free. There is a Chinese reception at the front desk. Personally feel that the street view is better than the river view. The river view room arrived at night, a dark river. The hotel has a self-service laundry room. This is very important. At 11 o'clock in the evening, there are still many people playing outside, almost all families with children.
