River Edge Inn - A remodeled motor lodge with family suites, jetted tubs, and walking distance to downtown Gatlinburg

Located on River Road's inner block, this renovated 2-star Gatlinburg hotel features accommodations ranging from standard rooms to expansive family suites. Guest rooms offer private balconies overlooking the seasonal outdoor pool, while deluxe units include gas fireplaces and two-person jetted tubs. Family suites accommodate up to 10 guests with full kitchens, multiple bedrooms, and living areas with sleeper sofas. The property provides complimentary grab-and-go breakfast from 8-10 AM, featuring items like muffins, cereals, and hard-boiled eggs. A seasonal swimming pool (3-9 feet deep) and children's pool operate from 10 AM to 10 PM during summer months. Situated within 0.5 miles of the Gatlinburg Convention Center and Hollywood Star Cars Museum, River Edge Inn places guests steps from dining options like Salty Bear Raw Bar and Big Daddy's Pizzeria.

Pros

Small-dog friendly rooms with designated outdoor areas

Free parking with one space per room directly in front of units

Walking distance to multiple restaurants and attractions including The Village Shops

Spacious family suites feature full kitchens and separate living areas

Cons

Pool only available seasonally

Located on inner block without direct river views

“River Edge Inn's proximity to Gatlinburg's main attractions strikes a fine balance with its quieter location. The staff's dedication, exemplified by their above-and-beyond efforts, certainly leaves a mark. While some rooms may present size constraints, the convenience and price point hold considerable appeal. I think the Inn stands out for its access and exceptional service.”
