Mountain views, a scenic riverfront and top sights from Dollywood to Great Smoky Mountains National Park—discover Eastern Tennessee, a destination also famous for its entertainment.
One of the best hotels we've stayed at.
Location excellent.
Felt like a valued customer despite only staying one night.
Had an issue in the room which was resolved and compensated by staff.
It's quite expensive, and drinks were too, but the overall experience is first class.

Stayed here last year also whilst visiting the area. Perfect location for getting around, shops and restaurants that you can walk too, great for a stroll at night. Staff on reception very friendly. Rooms absolutely spotless loads of space. Love love love! Will be back again next year to sit on the balcony and watch the world go by. Plenty parking too.

The hotel is well located and is beautiful inside. The rooms had everything we needed and the staff were really friendly. Only slight criticism would be the pool. It’s an indoor pool and doesn’t appear to be geared (or if it is, it isn’t very warm!). There were no loungers, only chairs. You couldn’t sunbathe outside in the garden as there were no loungers or chairs. It was 35 degrees (95F) and so we had planned to have an afternoon relaxing around the pool, but couldn’t.

I was very impressed by The Inn on the River. I stayed a couple of nights here while visiting Pigeon Forge and Dollywood. The hotel is conveniently located, the facilities and rooms are very good and everything was immaculately clean, most importantly the staff were extremely welcoming and helpful, and it is nice to return to the real fire roaring in the lobby when you’re getting in late!
I would happily stay here again and I would recommend it.
