We chose this hotel due to being pet friendly but beware that your room will smell like every pet before. The room was not clean and I understand it is a pet room but the floor left my feet black. I did get to see a bear while there and they do have a dog walk area so those are the pluses.

The lady when she checked us in our room explained it was at an adjacent location, but was still a part of the property- what she failed to mention was the elevator was not working and you would have to either walk a very steep hill or drive. If we were going to have to drive up and down the hill, we should have stayed at another location.

During check in, our room 372 was alloted to a different building and was tip of a hill. We parked the car near the office and was very difficult to carry all the luggage from office to hill top room number 372. Room was very dirty, flash in the bathroom was not working, light is very dimmed, So we requested to change the room and receptionsit offered to change the room next day on 8th Nov Saturday after 3 PM and they did not mention anything that we need to check out before 11 am on 8th Nov Saturday. You can see the conversation the recorded camera if you want. In the afternoon we visited the room 372, we were surprised that all our luggage and stuff were removed from the room and were about to trash. This is not acceptable to enter the room and removed the luggage and items without permission. the cleaning staff was not able to communicate whats is happening. We back and forth many times from hill top room 372 to office to understand what is happening. Finally they allocated room 225 for the second day. The room condition is very poor and very dirty, bathroom flash was not working, bed cover and duver were not cleaned properly. floor was filled with dust.

Staff was friendly. Room wasn't bad. Some things needed touched up or replaced like the paint in the bathroom and the shower curtain rod. The wifi however, didn't work for us. I'm guessing because our room was right next to the hillside. The free continental breakfast was good. There was plenty to choose from. Waffles, bagels, toast, scrambled eggs, sausage links, sauteed peppers & onions, roasted potatoes, biscuits and gravy, yogurt, apples, cereal, juice and milk. We liked the balcony that overlooked the creek. Our room also had a fireplace. It's right on the strip so everything was easy to get to. It is located towards the end of the strip. It sits behind Howards restaurant.

I had a terrible experience at Quality Inn Creekside - Downtown Gatlinburg. • The room was in poor condition and lacked basic cleanliness. • Staff service was unprofessional and unresponsive. • Shockingly, the hotel checked me out without informing me and removed all my belongings from the room. This is completely unacceptable and shows a total disregard for guest safety and respect. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a reliable or respectful stay in Gatlinburg.

Really odd hotel room. It was $169 for the night. We had no toilet paper but for some reason had 4 bags of decaf coffee? The bathroom fixtures were upgraded but the table and chairs looked like they were taken in off the side of the road.. then there was a really worn out ironing board in the room? It worked for the night as we weren’t planning on staying anyways but if it were where I booked my vacation I’d be disappointed for the price.

The room was horrible. The sink, shower and toilet all leaked. The shower curtain rod was broken so every time you showered the floor would get soaked. There was mold in the bathroom due to the leaks. There were cobwebs in two of the corners that obviously had been there for a while. I would not recommend this hotel.

Amazing location, our view was amazing and the location was great for quick breakfast and then right onto parkwat. On arrival, great clean room. Floor under couch was not swept, couch was plentifully stained with mystery stains, toilet paper roll was not replaced and was half used up - luckily I bring my own lol. But, thats really all there was. Still a great hotel room for a convenient place to spend a week. We got the king bed top story.

The rooms are bare minimum. Clean but old. The restroom was freezing. The caulking around the floor was all cracked and half missing. Even cleaned it looked dirty. No hair dryer offered. Could have been much nicer with no a lot of effort. We had a balcony which was nice except for the giant bright light in the ceiling,would have great if we could have turned it off. In our unit both elevators did not work.. Both? That meant everything we traveled with had to be cared up the stairs. That really was hard to do. Warming! Warning! Now if you want to see bears they came everyday. The poor things are conditioned to come for food. Do not leave food in your car,trash outside of your room and for the love of God don't feed them. They will eventually be relocated and if that doesn't work they will be destroyed. I don't think visitors realize that. It is a pet friendly place so please think about them being out there when you take your pups out for a walk. The location of the hotel was almost to the last stop on your way out light towards Cherokee just to give you idea of how far it's from the town center.

We booked a Premium Room with Creek View, A Balcony and a Fireplace. We got a very basic room instead of a Premium Room with not even a a means to hang our Winter Jackets. Everything was spilling onto the floor from our suitcases. Upon complaining, we got transferred to a room which had a Fireplace but the Firplace wasn't working-its knob was broken. This room was in the Hilltop Building with had a very steep driveway and it beat the whole purpose of booking a Hotel downtown as going up and down this Steep Hill with a Wheelchair is next to impossible. So the location was useless, the Fireplace did not work and they refused to refund even though it did not meet the criteria of what we had booked.
