We visited the Clarion and had a great time. The Clarion breakfast is great. But......before you make your reservations you better ask if the construction is still going on outside the hotel doors. Every morning around 2 am the construction started and never stopped until the next afternoon. Otherwise GREAT place to stay.

I think it is overpriced for what you get. The breakfast is ok but needs to add bacon. Like the parking area. Heat in room works very well.

After driving ten hours to get there, we we very happy to see a Clarion hotel in the distance, and we were anxious to get off the road and get some rest. Since it was our first trip to Gattlingburg, and we were there to get married, we decided on a suite. We arrived at approximately 9:30 pm and really... More

I must admit I booked this hotel with a critical eye after reading some of the previous reviews. I checked-in on a Sunday night, the whole area was desolate. Everything regarding my two day stay met and exceeded all expectations. The front desk was friendly enough, the room was clean and well appointed. Hopefully, this team has gotten the kinks... More

We stayed here over Christmas and had a wonderful time. We had the king suite and it was great to have that much room. Our 18 year old son slept well on the sofa bed. It was nice to have a living room to watch tv and the fireplace! Our bedroom had a 2 person jacuzzi and that was fun... More

I made reservation tonight online and called the hotel directly to see if I could change my reservations from a queen bed to king bed. On the other end of the phone was a night manager named Deanna who was rude and screaming at me for no reason, telling me that I haven't paid for anything and that my discounted... More

Stayed here for the weekend before Thanksgiving. Good value. Hotel rooms are nice and clean. Parking is ample and secure. Hotel is located on the outskirts of town so it is easily accessable without having to fight the traffic congestion Gatlinburg is know for. Breakfast was awesome with an omlet station. Also has waffe station. No complaints from us. We... More
