Just got back from another visit at the Riverhouse Motor Lodge and was just as good this time 'round as it was in the past. Enjoyed our stay greatly and look forward to visiting again next year. More

I have been staying at the Riverhouse Motor Lodge most every year since 1975 and it is always an outstanding experience. The location is great because you can easily walk to the city attractions and restaurants yet can get the car out of town without the traffic hassle. The rooms are always very clean, the staff is always very cordial... More

This is the fourth time we've stayed at the Riverhouse since our first time in the 1980's. We've never been disappointed and refuse to stay anywhere else in Gatlinburg. The hotel is a block off the main strip, but you would never know it. It's so quiet and peaceful there and every room has a balcony overlooking the river. There... More

Perfect! Very clean and comfy! Large rooms and balcony right over the river. Very peaceful and relaxing and you would never know you were so close to all of the action. We found that we could cross the street and take the elevator in the parking garage and it opened up to the moonshine place, Dick's Last Resort and the... More

We stayed at the Riverhouse for 4 nights over the July 4th weekend. We have stayed here many times before and love the Riverhouse. As others have mentioned, it has that 70's log cabin feel with dark carpeting, wood paneling on the walls, etc... Best features for us are the location - close to downtown, but sitting back on the...

Just returned from our visit to Gatlinburg and our first stay at the Riverhouse Motor Lodge. We've stayed in a lot of places in the area over the past 20 years, and this one was a surprising pleasure. The hotel provides easy access to both downtown Gatlinburg as well as the National Park. With the room's balcony overlooking the river,... More

We went in expecting great as most reviews state. We left with a just a okay. Our room was a king jacuzzi suite that was nicely decorated. It had a cabin feel which we liked. The bathroom was updated with a nice shower. There were beautiful Jim Grey paintings hung with track lights above them. The lighting was really nice.... More

Been here many times and never disappointed. Kids are now 14 and 12 and they always demand that we spend at least one night here. Rooms are vintage 70's but clean and very adequate. Fireplace, stream just steps away, firewood, pool, donuts and coffee...all good. We paid $111 Saturday night and $88 the other nights. Only trouble was that we... More

A great place to stay that isn't far off the main strip. The bathroom was newly updated. The rest of the decor definitely felt like it was a 70's or 80's style mountain lodge (not that we minded). It is a pleasant walk up to all the shops and takes about 5 minutes from the room. The only thing I... More
