10/10 Excellent
"I had a great stay for two nights. I was visiting for concert at the casino across the street. It was super convenient and there was quite a few things to see that were walking distance. Clean room and very friendly staff. The breakfast was really good - such a great inclusion for the stay. Free parking in the lot made things easy after a long drive."

Great Smokies Inn Cherokee

10/10 Excellent
"The young lady at the front desk was amazing. Offered to let me park my motorcycle under the front awning so it would be in the shade. This was our first time staying in Cherokee, usually stay around Townsend or Tellico Plains Tennessee but we will 100% be back next time we travel down that way. Nice quiet location away from the main strip, but close enough that we could walk to a few places."
