My niece and I spent the night at the Talley Ho Inn recently and had a very pleasant experience. It is nestled against the Great Smoky Mountains in Townsend, a small community near Maryville, TN and not far from the National Park, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge. Townsend is called "The Peaceful Side of the Smokies." The room had a great... More

When we go to the Smoky Mountains we stay in Townsend. From now on we'll be staying at the Talley Ho Inn. The staff was friendly, the bed was comfortable, and the room large and clean. The private balcony was also greatly enjoyed. The grounds were also clean and well kept. The Talley Ho Inn is close to the park... More

Looks like this must be the place to stay if you're doing photography or visiting Cades Coves. The room was spacious, ultra clean, great view, staff was very helpful and the restaurant was excellent. And the bed was very, very comfortable. I'll definitely stay here the next time I'm in the area doing photography (or just visiting the Smoky Mountains.)

Stayed here just overnight in March, 2013, and wished we had more time! Comfy, clean, with refrigerator, microwave, fireplace, jacuzzi, outside porch, very quiet and very well maintained. Is an easy walk to Heritage Center next door, and on the bike path along town. Great value for the money!

We have stayed here on two separate occasions. Once was during peak fall colors season (Oct. 2012) and the other was in the off-season (Jan. 2013). Both times the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The rooms were clean, spacious and very quiet. We were on the first floor and so our room opened up on to a private patio... More

This is a really nice place to stay if you want to get away from all the noise and congestion in Gatlinburg. We had a room with a very comfortable king size bed. The room was very clean and very well lit! I mention "well lit" because many place are so dingy and dark, but this was bright and homey... More

We have stayed at the Talley Ho Inn many times over the years including several days before Christmas this year. The inn has consistently been clean and the employees helpful. They have recently remodeled the room we stayed in this year. The view of the mountains is great and it is quiet. It also the closest place to stay to... More
