The Gillette was very clean. The staff was extremely friendly. We enjoyed that you could easily walk to the main strip in Gatlinburg. The best part was the price as we saved over $1000 from where we normally stay. We will definitely be back.

I can’t say enough about the staff at the Gillette and how amazing they are! I specifically worked with Bo and Joann but everyone I talked to made me feel like family! They went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. The hotel is very clean, comfortable, cute and is conveniently located. I can’t wait to come back and visit!

This is a beautifully maintained hotel with very attentive, customer service oriented staff and clean, comfortable rooms. They constantly made sure we had everything we needed and were so friendly and helpful with any request. There was a nice patio area to sit on in the evenings, and it was so close to everything, just a couple of blocks from downtown Gatlinburg. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
