Our room smelled very strongly like hickory due to the fireplace. It was hard to get used to. Our carpet was damp and smelled like urine, so we had to wear shoes the whole time. The air vent smelled like urine. The whole room was very old. When they changed the beds, our blankets were damp. It took them all... More

We just got back from a 4 night stay at Brookside Resort in Gatlinburg, TN. It was a very nice place to stay. Our room was great. Had a king-size bed, a balcony overlooking a babbling brook, a refrigerator and microwave, a fireplace and a sitting area. Had a good breakfast every day and the people were very nice there.

I had my dog with me and after I saw my room was unable to find anywhere else to stay. My daughter had dropped me off and was afraid for me to say there. It stank - literally! I wore socks because I was afraid to step on the floor, there was mold in the bathroom and cobwebs behind the... More

I read many of the reviews before I went on my trip so to say the least I was very nervous. I had bought a Groupon for the hotel not knowing anything about it. The staff was very friendly to us from the main desk to the breakfast ladies. Yes, the hotel is outdated but our room was nice. We... More

My boyfriend & I stayed here for 2 nites ...... thoroughly enjoyed our stay and couldn't have asked for better service. They really went above & beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable.... got free firewood for the fireplace. Room was clean and more spacious than I was expecting. Nice balcony over looking the river. Liked the "cabin" quality... More

The rooms at the back of the hotel overlooking the stream and on the top floor are very quiet and peaceful. It was a roaring stream when I stayed there mid-April, but I loved sitting on the deck enjoying the dogwoods that were blooming. The hotel IS under renovation and the rooms on the upper floor are "dated," but very... More

This place was great for us. We had a fireplace in the room and a balcony that faced a stream in the rear of the resort. The room was out dated but clean with a Jacuzzi bathtub and a small fridge. We mainly wanted a cheap place to stay while taking advantage of all Gatlinburg had to offer. They offer... More

We booked this property through a travel agency. They should be ashamed to book any clients here. This would be a place I would only stay if I was driving and couldn't find any other rooms. The staff was nice enough, but only one maintance person did what they said. All others said they would take care of it and... More

When we arrived for our mini-vacation at Brookside, we were told that our reservation couldn't be found. We had our confirmation to validate the dates of our stay, thank goodness. When we walked into the room we were shocked. The pictures online did not portray their property accurately. The shower was moldy, the floors were badly stained, the outside balcony... More

This was a terrible place to stay. The renovations were no where to be seen. Should have known better when we had to pay up front and the money was non-refundable.

We are so sorry that you felt that Brookside was not up to your standards. All rooms have hair dryers mounted to the wall, microwaves, refrigerators, private bathrooms and a private balcony. Apparently you were on the pet-friendly section which is our 2-story area and out of the 18 rooms there 6 have been remodeled with new carpeting and tile.... More
