"Great quality + value + location = we will be back!"

Reviewed July 02, 2025 NEW

We felt like Rivers Edge was good quality for the value. Our room was exactly as it was pictured online (2 queens). The room was clean, the bed had crisp white linens, and there were plenty of fresh clean towels. The mattresses were a bit too soft for us, but after hiking all day, we were so tired that sleep came easily. Ice cold AC was great considering it was close to 100° a couple days. Not too much sound from other neighbors was noticed in our 3rd floor room. It was nice to have the ice machine and the elevator close to our room. The hotel is located off the main strip of Gatlinburg businesses, at the least busy end of town. Perfect for us, because we could still walk to restaurants easily. There was plenty of onsite free parking. The daily grab-n-go breakfast items and coffee was nice, too. There was plenty of selection every morning while we were there. We would definitely choose Rivers Edge again!

"Very Impressed"

Reviewed June 27, 2025 NEW

Honestly I wasn’t expecting very much. However from the beginning the staff was extremely helpful & pleasant. Our room was very spacious. Breakfast (although continental) had various offerings (name brand!). When we encountered an issue, the staff was extremely quick to respond & offered a nice resolution. Also great location to strip and nearby hiking trail.

"Just Okay"

Reviewed May 31, 2025

Basically, I felt the photos of the place, made it look nicer than it really was. My husband thought it was nice, but I expected more. You are asked to take your own trash to the dumpster. You are asked to put dirty/used towels outside your door for pick up. And you have a door hanger for requesting additional towels, shampoo, trash can liners, etc We stayed for 5 nights, and the only time they came in the room was to drop off the additional towels we requested. There is no day to day or even every other day room check for needed items, sheet changing, or cleaning.

"Awesome stay in Gatlinburg. Enjoyed the location and hotel."

Reviewed May 16, 2025

We wanted a hotel in the middle of Gatlinburg, that was within walking distance of town. This hotel did not disappoint. It was located along River Road and was just a few minutes to the Parkway. The trolley was also located right in front of the hotel. Rebecka was awesome and assisted us when we had to cut our stay short by one day, The room was spacious, clean and fresh. Loved having a balcony to sit outside and enjoy the day or evening. Our room neighbor was able to open the balcony door and introduce us to his family. We would definitely return to this hotel again in the future. It was a great stay.

"One of my new favorite hotels! Will definitely stay here again"

Reviewed May 05, 2025

This hotel was the perfect stay and in a fantastic location. Located on a small backstreet right off of main street gatlinburg, the last last as you are going toward the national park. The rooms are VERY spacious and peaceful. plenty of parking to go with your room. The hotel is in a very short walking distance to restaurants and the strip so you do not even have to pay for parking if you want to explore. Very close to the Gatlinburg walking trail which is a nice easy stroll down the side of a river. Overall I am very pleased with my stay here! Highly recommend
