The area seems a little sketchy but it is a great property on the river with a great breakfast, indoor pool with a hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor rocking chairs. Only thing I wish we did differently was get a room facing the water with a balcony. We would definitely stay again! ##### Rachel Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynn 8 Mar 2026 The river view is beautiful and peaceful. The free breakfast was surprisingly good (not just a continental breakfast), and we used the indoor pool a lot. It was a delightful stay! ##### Lynn Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### edgell 1 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Just a great vibe all around.

They were both very attentive and friendly. Susan made recommendations on things we should see while in North Carolina. Her recommendations made our trip more memorable than we expected. Susan and Annette made our experience at the best western remarkable and we look forward to coming back again soon and staying with the best western. Top notch staff. This was the best experience we have ever had at any hotel we have ever stayed at. They made us feel like family. ##### Douglas Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Heather 5 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The room was clean and the staff was very friendly.

Great breakfast options as well for a family with kids. We had solid breakfast options during our stay. The staff brought extra covers for the pull out couch making the girls very comfortable overnight. The room was fully equipped with all of the bathroom amenities as well. I would definitely recommend the hotel to others who are visiting the area. ##### Jose Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### shailesh 9 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Front desk staff ‘Forest’, she helped me for quick check in as we were in rush to drop our luggage and then leave for another place. Breakfast was served warm and the area was kept super clean. Room was ready clean and fresh. Location is great, the stream flows adjacent to the property. It has a deck with chairs and tables to enjoy morning break fast or evening drinks with family and friends. The location is though 20 minutes drive from Cherokee downtown but it’s worth coming out of city buzz and stay in calm environment. If I visit Cherokee NC again, will definitely stay at Best Western Place. ##### shailesh Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Francisco 15 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very clean rooms and attentive staff.

Area around hotel is more commercial businesses & not a lot of lighting. However the views of the river & proximity to Dillsboro & Sylvia are worth it! Hotel was very clean, beds soft & shower was excellent. Staff was friendly! ##### Amanda Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Crystal 11 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I have stayed at Best Western in Dillsboro NC many many times over the years. It’s my go to place. Clean rooms, the indoor heated pool and the atmosphere are just a few of the great amenities offered. The staff always welcome my family and I as if its our second home especially the breakfast staff. The view and access to the river make it even more enjoyable especially if you have children in the summer months. ##### Crystal Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Teresa 7 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved our room over looking the river.

I had a river view room with a balcony, but the building has an excellent design with a deck off the dining room with chairs and tables, so any guest can get comfortable and enjoy the view as often and for as long as they like. For decades I’ve stayed in numerous hotels per year for work annd play, and this one was the quietest. The layout is easy to navigate and the room had everything I needed, including a small fridge and microwave. ##### Cindy Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ---
