The Helendorf is right in the heart of town near the famous bridge and near the restaurants and shopping. The rooms are on the Chattahoochee river.

Like most of Helen, this property's decor is dated and almost childish. The staff is pleasant and accommodating, and the room is fairly clean. Overall, the atmosphere is tired and tacky. The charm is long gone.

Spring Break

Great room, middle of everything. Literally everything was within walking distance. Loved the views. Small glitch with tv but honestly not enough to bother with. Besides, we were there to explore and tire kids out. Overall, great experience.

For the place being kinda spendy, I feel the balcony could have been swept, and the outside grounds swept. The bath tub caulk needs the mold scrubbed out. The bed was comfortable.

Great place to stay!

Great location and definitely will stay again. Walking distance to just about everything. No elevator but the stairs weren’t too bad. We were on the 3rd floor over looking the little river with a balcony! Just remember to get/bring towels to the pool they don’t have any there. Parking was great also, we have a truck and sometimes parking is a problem.

Great location and room was clean. Great river views. The staff was friendly. The exterior could use some TLC. Rooms need hotel locks (top latch) on the doors.

Loved being in downtown Helen. Definitely walkable to most everything. Room was good, loved the river view. Clean, comfortable, safe. TV worked and had Netflix (last few places we’ve been had TV issues and no Netflix). Overall, a good place to stay and I’d go there again

This hotel was perfect for our stay in Helen, GA. It was perfectly on theme, you feel transported from the moment you drive up to the property. Everything was immaculately clean. The staff were all so friendly & helpful. The radio alarm in the room next to us went off at 3am. We called front desk and they took care of it within minutes. Coffee and tea available at the lobby all day. The room was spacious, the view was beautiful! The kids loved the hotel. I could go on and on about how great this place was! We will definitely be back!
