All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
This was a lovely little place to stay and I'll definitely recommend it. The staff were helpful and friendly, the room was cozy, and I loved the rocking chairs. My only complaint is that the night we stayed a group of people were outside, near our door, talking very loudly for about an hour.
Was just a one night stop over - perfect for our needs. Quaint & has all you need with old fashioned feel which I prefer over ultra modern chain hotels.
I booked this motel based on the reviews and it did not disappoint. The beds were comfortable and it was quiet and just a lovely little place tucked away in Townsend. We enjoyed swimming in the pool too.
We love this little gem! My son and I look forward to staying here whenever we get to the mountains and we had a great time once again! The rooms are nice--spacious, clean, and comfortable. The upper pool is our new favorite spot now that we realized it's heated!! We hadn't used it before but we really loved it after a day in the park! We didn't want to come home and my son asked the whole way if we could just go back to the hotel!!
Better than ecpected and great hospitality. I reallly liked the room and the view and it was very reasonable for the area and so close to cades cove tje swimming hole and the underground caverns.
We stay at the Riverbreeze every time we take a trip to the smokies, we are avid hikers and you can’t get any closer to the National Park. Clean, quiet, and wonderful staff.
We stayed for 7 days. Housekeeping only cleaned our room once, the other times we had to ask for towels and trash removal. The owners are very nice and helpful! We will be back again. Just hope the housekeeping situation is better our next visit.
Perfect location close to everything. Super clean and newly updated rooms. Definitely the best hotel of the vacation. No it’s not a resort. But superbly decorated and amazing location. Loved it and sent name to relatives who would also enjoy. Sharing with friends.
Favorite place to stay in the area. We have been coming here for almost 3 years now and every time is perfect. Rooms are extremely clean, and the facility is very quiet and peaceful. We frequent the National
Park for hiking and this place is about the closest you can get to it. 10/10 would recommend!!
