Check-in was easy and convenient, with extremely helpful staff. Later, housekeeping was very helpful, bringing me orange juice from the breakfast bar to my room, since I have difficulty walking and all drink machines on all floors had been empty for 3 weeks - staff was trying hard to find out why and were themselves very frustrated with that issue. Overall, I would stay there again!

Pros: Friendly staff, clean rooms, excellent breakfast. They're using a nice air freshener scent in the lobby and rooms with a pleasant smell. The pool/lazy river area is lovely and well maintained. Cons: We upgraded to a King Suite which was situated on the front of the property on a busy road so the road noise was constant. Also, these King suites have a jazuzzi soaking tub and evidently the people above or below us filled theirs at 10pm one night. It was crazy loud hearing the water rush through the pipes for about 30 minutes. We could barely hear our TV over the noise! LOL! Overall, a nice place but if we stay there again we will ask for a quieter room at the back of the property.

Disappointed

We were excited to stay at the Clarion because it is so beautiful and nice. However, the beds were horrible. Very hard, box springs that shook everytime you moved and my sister got bitten over 8 times in the night! She had bites on her arms, and legs. When she showed the desk clerk, she said, oh dear, i hope that wasnt a spider! Norhing was offered to us in a way of duscount or apologies. We will never stay there again.

The pool area was wild as ever! People blasting music, packing around drinks in the containers, bringing in cases of beer and carrying on with horrific language with no regards to the children in the area.

We (kids and adults) loved the pool options--outdoor and indoor pools plus a small lazy river outside and hot tub inside ( with the most powerful jets I've ever experienced!). The breakfast was amazing--everything you could want. The property is well kept and looks very elegant. I loved that the " standard double queen" room we booked alsi included full sofa bed for our third child instead of the rollaway we requested thru Expedia. It was an anaxing price, too. It was a little further away from the national park but with plenty of local dining options and less traffic. Good prices at the Sevierville restaurants, too. Even gas was 20 cents cheaper than in Pigeon Forge. Loved everything about this place!

Great Stay!

Check-in was easy and Pam was very nice. She explained where everything was and the process was quick. The hotel had a wonderful smell throughout the halls and in our room. The room was clean and beds/pillows super comfy. There was a pullout couch but we never utilized it so I can’t speak on how comfortable it was. There was a balcony with some chairs that was nice to sit in. There was a small coffee pot, fridge and microwave in the room as well. Breakfast was complimentary and very good. Biscuits, gravy, eggs, sausages, hash, hashbrowns and cinnamon apples were on the hot bar. There were breads to toast as well as yogurt oatmeal and cereal. A waffle station, juice and coffee bar were also very nice. Indoor pool and an amazing hot tub are open 24 hours. Outdoor pool and lazy river were nice too. Any staff we interacted with were very nice. Hotel is a quick drive to pigeon forge, depending on traffic but never took us more than 20 minutes. For the location, price and cleanliness we will definitely stay here again.
