Top Iris Theater Hotel Reviews

Comfort Suites Gatlinburg Downtown-Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Were there for 3 nights, polite and professional staff building is clean and well maintained location is 3 blocks walking distance. The only thing that could be made better is free breakfast which was ok but could have a better selection my opinion would stay there again"

Sidney James Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were clean, amenities were great"

SureStay Plus Hotel by Best Western Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, good location, friendly staff. Breakfast not great,, should work on making more edible scrambled eggs."

Glenstone Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I love this hotel. First time to Gatlinburg and will definitely be back. If I can book this hotel at the time of my next trip, that’s what I’ll be doing. I also LOVED the pool. Love the vintage look of the hotel with modern details."

Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg

10/10 Excellent

"Clean Room. Clean beds. Accommodating. Easy parking Friendly staff. Reasonably priced to be right in the middle of Gatlinburg. Balcony was spacious and clean."

The Historic Gatlinburg Inn

8/10 Good

"For us, we enjoyed the experience, but it can depend on what you are looking for in a hotel. Room was clean and the washer/dryer on the first floor was nice to have. Breakfast was delicious, and location is phenomenal. Everything you could want to do in Gatlinburg is within walking distance. Staff is nice. We booked a room with a bed and a sofa, but instead we were given a room with only a bed. Three of us had to sleep on one bed. I can’t complain however, the room we were given had a huge balcony that wrapped around the side of the building and gave a great view of the city. I will say that while the hotel is clean, it does have the vibe of your grandmother’s house. If you want something more professional and modern, this place may not be for you."
