The location was great! Property clean and pretty on the river. Rooms clean. Breakfast was very crowded and ok for a free breakfast. As a smoker I paid more to book a room with a balcony to find out I couldn’t smoke on the balcony or even on the property

What a wonderful place with wonderful people. We had an amazing time at The Inn on the River! We loved watching the ducks, geese and heron from our balcony and even watched a little river otter swim upstream! The breakfast buffet was awesome and fresh and the fire pit was super awesome too! There is so much positive to say about this place! Will definitely stay again in the future! Thank you to the folks at the Inn on the River for making our trip extra special.

My family and I stayed here during our vacation to Pigeon Forge. It was our first time staying at this property; the front desk staff were friendly, and the hotel had plenty of parking. We enjoyed feeding the ducks by the river. Our rooms were clean and comfortable. We had two adjoining rooms with a balcony, and the view at night was gorgeous. The breakfast was great and offered a wide variety of options that changed daily. My mother commented that it is the nicest hotel she has ever stayed in. The only con I could mention is that the pool is not heated and the water is cold. Otherwise, it was an excellent stay, and I would highly recommend it!

Super Clean

The only downfall was parking after a night out. Parking lot was packed definitely needs more handicapped by doors. Love the rooms big and super clean.matter of fact the whole hotel was clean. There are two pools outside and inside which I didnt partake but walking pass others did, especially hot tub.Loved sitting out on balcony watching the water flow by and the ducks. Full breakfast was actually really good served buffet style and is included in your room price. Hotel is close to everything plus the trolly is right here. Overall a great experience

The room was clean and ready for us when we arrived. The view from the balcony was exactly what we were looking for. Right on the river with abundant wildlife to watch and the babbling river to sit and listen to while we were relaxing outside. The location was close to everything we wanted to do and many excellent restaurants. We will definitely stay there again.
