    It's a nice place to stay but for as much as they charge they really need to spend some money on doing repairs & updating the resort. 2 days we tried to use the jet tub only for the water to be ice cold. Called the front desk & was told someone would be right down to check into it. 30min later no one had shown up so we gave up. Later that day we tried again & still the water was ice cold. Rooms are nice but there's rust on the vents and they are heavy lint with lint. In the pool area the floor has sunken in a lot of places that can lead to a trip hazard. Also the elevators displays don't work. The carts to haul your luggage to and from your room are severely lacking, people will also take them to their rooms a hang onto them even if they're not checking out till the next morning. It's a shame this place has gone down hill so much as it used to a really nice place to stay when we visited the Smokies.

    The room was wonderful and large, definitely big enough for all of us! Only downside is, there's no on site restaurant. The pools were nice, as was the lazy river, and it was a quiet escape from the chaos of the Parkway!

    Not bad. Stayed here for two nights and it did the job. Condo type set up with full kitchen as well as washer/dryer. Huge plus when traveling with family. A single load detergent is in the room. You can get more at the front desk for free. Spacious, clean room with a balcony. We had five in our party and it was plenty of room. Pool area is ok with a small lazy river. Indoor pool and spa is open 24/7. There are separate room and pool keys which was kinda weird. Parking is pretty convenient. Self park. No charge. They had luggage racks that you can use to load up your stuff and roll to your room. Good location with plenty to do nearby. Reasonably priced.

    RiverStone Resort is a hidden gem in Pigeon Forge! We enjoyed 4 days of total comfort -- the lazy river, indoor pool complex, and especially the Jacuzzi were perfect for unwinding after exploring Dollywood and the nearby shows. Our suite was spacious and clean, and the staff was welcoming and professional throughout our stay. Definitely a place we'll return to, and next time we're bringing friends!

    I have zero complaints. I usually find things I don't like but I have none. Rooms are SO CLEAN and spacious; we had a 3rd floor condo with 2 rooms for my family of 4 and our dog with washer/dryer, fully stocked kitchen and cleaning supplies for your stay. There is not a full service clean every day (you can pay extra if you want it) but they work very hard to provide you with everything you need. Our condo had a patio in front which was also perfect for our dog. The parking situation was good. We parked in the garage and our F-150 had no issues with space. I will absolutely be coming back!

    My short stay at this Condo was comfortable! It was a 3 bedroom & 2 Bath with a wonderful view! The location was on the end and I appreciated the quietness that we had in on this area! My family felt secure and comfortable and it is centrally located to many restaurants; markets and attractions (by car or walking)! The condo is spacious and during the visit we didn't feel we are on top of each other! There were flat screen TV's in each room with Direct TV (HBO & Max Premium Channels)! There is one indoor pool and outdoor pool! Overall-comfortable stay!

    Booked a room back in Mid-July, amazing room, friendly service, beds were very comfortable to sleep in, views from balconies were amazing, lots of activities nearby, and what's with the spa? It is amazing! No delays and plans were months-out!

    This place exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, which is hard to come by these days. We had a 2 bedroom King condo and everything was up to date. No issues with anything and we throughly enjoyed our stay. Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge were extremely crowded, probably won't visit again in the summer!

    Stay here at the cozy resort... u will never want to leave.. there is an indoor pool and if you can stay 2 nights to enjoy ur stay

    This place is a MUST!! Super clean resort inside and out. Walking distance to all the fun entertainment. We even had geese visitors on the property. The lobby was beautifully decorated for Christmas!! Family friendly and couples cozy

    Water fall into lazy river

    Not only was our condo really spotless but the entire grounds were clean. The lazy river, pool, and hot tub were clean and beautiful. The waterfall at the lazy river was such a nice touch. We will definitely be returning to RiverStone Resort and Spa every time we return to Pigeon Forge. The kitchen was fully stocked with all cooking items you would need, the beds were very comfy. The best part: it was so quiet!!!!! We couldn't hear the people above us at all! The long hours for the pool and lazy river came in handy too!!!

    Head to Gatlinburg and stay at the Margaritaville Resort…read more This hotel has seen better days. We had a basic room with two queens overlooking the creek. The bathroom had a vent with tons of rust, the paint was chipped all over the walls. Beat up and scuffed furniture. The patios were sad and depressing. The patio door was broken and did not lock. The view is "sad creek with creepy parking lot." The hotel also gives a complimentary margarita coupon to guests. We do not drink alcohol. When I went to the bar I asked the manager if we could trade it in for a non-alcoholic margarita or NA beer and they said no, only alcoholic margaritas. How ridiculous! Not even a freaking mocktail margarita! After staying at the Gatlinburg resort property this was a huge let down. We have since learned they are two different franchise owners. Suffice to say, we were going to stay two nights. We paid for two and after one night we left and booked a room at the Gatlinburg location instead. That's how bad it was.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Every interaction was genuinely friendly, fun, and welcoming. The rooms are a good size with an indoor fireplace that adds a nice touch and large bathrooms. They have outdoor balconies overlooking the shopping area or river - which was great for seeing nature (geese, beavers, herons). Facilities are nice with a good sized gym and large rooftop pool and hot tub overlooking the Ferris wheel. The roof has plenty of lounge chairs and the chill bar with great staff that will bring your orders (food included) to your chair. The hotel is pet-friendly and has an indoor fireplace-house restaurant and bar (Fins) with an outdoor patio. It also has an onsite Starbucks. While pricey, the amenities, room size, great staff, and location made it worth it! We've already started talking about our next visit!

    First off, my husbands mistake but this was a time share weekend so the hotel was basically free…read morebut it makes me wonder if time share rooms are typically awful or this was just our luck. Got there around 10:00 and the room was ready. Great! Got to room and it was pretty small and filthy (table had crumbs/sticky, not vacuumed etc). Went back to the front desk and she offered to switch to same room for no charge or upgrade to a slightly bigger room for $20/night. We opted for that option since as a family of four, more space is worth the cost for us. We got to that room and again, not the cleanest and there was pubic hairs on the bathroom floor which basically sealed the deal mentally nothing good would happen. Because this was a timeshare offer we called them and finally after we left and had lunch they just put us in another room. They did refund the $60 and gave us three breakfast vouchers for each day but even this room was not clean to what "Hilton" standards should be even though the manager walked through the room personally. In the end, this made it very easy to say no to the timeshare presentation as their excuse was Hilton bought the property just a year ago so they aren't all up to standard yet. The lobby was beautiful, the pool area looked nice but my kids said the water was freezing. I would never pay for the $17 dollar breakfast as it's basically the same free stuff you get at every other hot continental breakfast. Basically, you couldn't pay me to stay here again.

It definitely delivers on the cozy atmosphere and river views -- and yes, there are plenty of geese to remind you you're by the water! Check-in was seamless, and the front desk staff were friendly and welcoming. They have a nice 24/7 drink bar with instant coffee and tea, plus another bar with juice and tea options during breakfast and again in the evenings (7-10). Small touches like that were a nice surprise. As for the room, it was a good size and overall comfortable. The beds were great, though I did notice housekeeping service declined a bit as the week went on. Towels varied in softness, and the complimentary toiletries were below average -- I'd recommend bringing your own. For a listed 3-star hotel, I'd rate it closer to 2.5 stars. The property is clean and cozy, but for the price point, it could use a few tune-ups. That said, I'd stay here again, especially if you're traveling with family or kids. The pool and hot tub area are nice, and the continental breakfast was fairly decent. Tip: If you're staying on the first floor near rooms 110-120, you might want to request a different area unless you're an early riser -- hallway noise can be noticeable from people coming and going in the morning.

The is a full body mirror, a sink and mirror with towels outside the bathroom AND another mirror and sink inside the bathroom. We got lucky and got the very last room! It was a full house, yet there still managed to be five extra parking spaces. Did I mention that there is also a pool and the front desk lady was so sweet. There is also an additional fireplace by the pool and pool towels!!! I couldn't have asked for a more restful, cozy night. I'm still so surprised they have a fridge and microwave. They don't even do that in most places anymore. They dont charge you for opening the fridge either!! Also, I'm allergic to pet dander and they said that they made sure that every time a pet is here, they clean is well. I believe them!!! No allergies for me!!! Breakfast is still at 6:30-9:30am. There is now liquid soap and conditioner in the showers.

    Wowowowow, where do I start?!…read more Pigeon Forge is a mountainous Vegas-like touristy town. There are tons of hotels, some are great and others...not so much. Those great hotels are often going to cost a pretty penny while those more affordable ones are going to be a bit rough around the edges. So where can you stay in Pigeon Forge that isn't going to hurt the bank account while giving you a relaxing stay? Well look no further...Twin Mountain Inn & Suites is excellent AND affordable! I'm a Hotels member and when I saw Twin Mountain Inn and Suites' 5 star reviews, I was curious, especially because at the time, the rates were about $97/night AND pets are only $20/night. Not only that, the room had a river view with a balcony, fireplace, and free parking. Now, I've kept this hotel on the backburner on my account. Last time we visited Pigeon Forge, we stayed at Drury and spent so much more on a "Mountain View" that overlooked the parking structure. So, this time, I decided to go with my instinct and book with Twin Mountain. Boy, am I glad we did!! We stayed on the third floor. Don't let the cover of a book fool you. The parking is easy but can get full pretty quickly, true. However, the room was probably on of the cleanest hotel rooms we've ever stayed in. The beds were comfortable. The shower was hot and had good water pressure (albeit, no conditioner or body wash-just a small packaged bar of soap. There were two small bottles of shampoo). There's a microwave and mini fridge in the room. I also liked that there were two sinks, one in the bathroom and one just outside of it (vanity). This was convenient for two people. The AC/heater was powerful, too. The fireplace is timed and creates a cozy atmosphere. The balcony overlooking the river was peaceful and there were two plastic chairs and a little table out there to sit and enjoy the view of ducks and geese. Twin Mountain Inn and Suites is close to the strip but away from the flashing lights and noise. It's a great location! Breakfast is included and had biscuits and gravy, eggs, yogurt, sausage, fruit, cereal, and one waffle maker. There's fresh coffee and a juice machine, too. It was a tight squeeze as it was very busy for 7:30am so I decided to get one biscuit and gravy, two sausages, and a yogurt to take back to the room, which were all very good. There's a drink vending machine outside of the lobby and one near the parking lot. The elevator was convenient and they also had luggage trolleys, too. This was an outstanding stay for one night and I wish it had been longer. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend staying with Twin Mountain Inn & Suites for your next stay in Pigeon Forge.

Like other locations this Tru has all the bells and whistles! The activity board that lists area shopping, eating, and attractions highlights, the relaxing color scheme, clean rooms, complementary toiletries, sustainability features, and delightful staff! Now this particular Tru was just a pit stop so I didn't spend the day exploring Dollywood, but her recent passing made me think about this fun stop. The Smokey Mountains are also nearby. I left around 8:30am and was eating brunch in Asheville NC by 10:30am. I was trying to remember where I ate dinner the night before, but I know it was walkable after crossing the main drag.

It was super reasonable for one night to bed down before moving on to our other destinations. This hotel is clean, has enough room, and is all you could want in a place to stay. It's located up above the island area and is near the baseball thing. I don't know what it's called but you'll hear your fair share of walk up songs bright and early if you stay on the backside of the hotel. The beds were very comfortable in my opinion. I have an achy hip and leg most days and even my own bed kills me. This bed had me sleeping like a baby, even with my four year old beside me. We arrived at almost 11pm and the staff was nice and welcoming and there was tea and coffee available in the lobby. They do provide a breakfast in the lobby in the morning and have games and seating areas for families. Would definitely recommend staying here!
