Mountain House Inn Downtown - A family-friendly 2-star hotel with outdoor pools and free parking on a quiet side road
Located within walking distance to Gatlinburg's main attractions, this 57-room Gatlinburg hotel built in 1982 features two outdoor swimming pools with kiddie areas. Mountain House Inn Downtown offers Double Queen Rooms and Two Bedroom Efficiency Rooms equipped with 42-inch flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, microwaves, refrigerators, and free Wi-Fi. The property includes a picnic area and vending machines for guest convenience. Mountain House Inn sits on a quiet side road with a small stream running across the front, away from downtown noise. A trolley stop across the street connects guests to local attractions including Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies, Anakeesta (0.3 miles), and the Gatlinburg Space Needle (0.5 miles).
Pros
Located on a peaceful side road with a stream adding natural ambiance
Direct trolley access to attractions from outside the hotel
Free parking in downtown area
Recently remodeled accommodations
Cons
Bathroom sinks are separated from toilets in standard rooms
Located 49.5 miles from McGhee Tyson Airport
“The location is a definite plus, placing you within easy walking distance of The Village and the main strip. Beds seem quite comfortable, but cleanliness appears to be a recurring concern. If you're primarily looking for a budget-friendly base and can overlook some maintenance issues, this might suffice.”
