Whether you’ve stayed with us before or are just now hearing about us, we bet there’s a few things you might not know about us! To help you learn more, take a look at 5 things you didn’t know about our Gatlinburg hotel on the river:
1. Welcoming Guests for 60+ Years
It all started back in 1962, when Jack Miller, Sr. set out to build a property that everyone in Gatlinburg would be proud of. He wanted the hotel to offer more than just a place to stay, but a whole experience for guests — and he succeeded! For over 60 years, we have been welcoming guests to The Greystone Lodge on the River. When you stay with us, you’ll fall in love with not only the comfort we provide, but the atmosphere. Guests return year after year to experience their vacation at our Gatlinburg hotel!
2. Only 1 Mile from the National Park
One of the best parts about a Smoky Mountain vacation is spending time exploring the mountains! The Greystone Lodge is just 1 mile from the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. That means you’re just a short drive from hiking trails, waterfalls, wildlife, gorgeous scenery, and more! You’ll love spending the day hiking through the mountains before returning to a clean, comfortable hotel room to relax.
3. Every Room has a Private Balcony
One of the things guests love most about our Gatlinburg hotel is that most of our rooms are on the river! Plus, we make your experience even better by having a private balcony or patio attached to every room! A majority of our rooms offer beautiful views overlooking the river. You can kick back, relax, and take in the scenery when you stay at our Gatlinburg hotel on the river!
4. All Trolleys Stop by Our Entrance
Need an easy way to get around Gatlinburg? We recommend riding the Gatlinburg Trolley! The best part is that all trolleys make a stop outside our hotel. Gatlinburg trolleys operate on a daily basis, providing a free way for visitors to get around town. Say goodbye to wasting gas sitting in traffic and paying to park, and say hello to riding the Gatlinburg Trolley! You can get to wherever you need to go in Gatlinburg on a trolley, from the Gatlinburg Arts & Crafts Community and to popular attractions in the area.
5. Great Space for Groups
