Hotels near Haywood Turquoise Jewelry, Pigeon Forge

Good service, enthusiasm, free upgrade

Excellent, clean, and lovely hotel. The food is good. The hotel and rooms are clean and fresh. Lots of attention to detail. Very professional and friendly staff. The space in the rooms is great - well laid out. I was pleased with my stay and you will be too.

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 were pleasantly surprised as to the location of your hotel. The view was breathtaking! Our room was very comfortable. The recliner was in a declining condition but it served a purpose as my husband has to sleep in a recliner. The pool was very inviting and the fireworks on our last night there were so exciting.

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.

Good surrounding environment

Nice room and location. We were able to get a river view room on the 2nd floor. It also overlooks Parkway, and the Titanic Museum, Hatfield V McCoy, Wonderworks, and Beyond the Lens could be seen not far away. It's a little bit noisy there starting in the morning but we didn't notice any noise during sleep time. The indoor pool was the only one open. It's not really big but it's nice. Breakfast was a hot, buffet-style hotel meal. Waffle maker, scrambled eggs and/or bacon, coffee, hot chocolate, french vanilla hot chocolate (not chocolate of course), various pastries, cereal, OJ, yogurt (with nuts and granola available). What I ate of that was good. We stayed 3 nights during our Spring Break. The area was extremely busy all the time. Pigeon Forge provides convenient access to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
