Very Average but good Location and Pool

The location of the chalet was walkable to the popular strip in Gatlinburg with restaurants, etc, which was nice because parking is expensive in town. The pool and chairs are nice, though there were generally no clean pool towels available despite a not busy pool. The cleanliness of the room was great, but it desperately needs to be updated inside and smelled quite bad.

Truly the worst stat I’ve ever had. The rooms look nothing like the pictures and there were bugs crawling everywhere in the room. For reference, we stayed in room 219. The door latch was broken off the wall, the bathroom had no door, and as previously mentioned, BUGS EVERYWHERE. I will never book another stay at The Chalet Inn. In my opinion, it needs to be tore down because it is not tended to properly.

Don't stay at the Fabulous Chalet Inn

I booked this hotel because it was labeled as pet friendly on the site hotels.com. When i get here i was told that dogs are not allowed but they would allow my dog to stay as long as i didn't leave him in the room alone. There were several dogs in the hotel on big one next to my room that barked every time i left the room. Then the people upstairs kept either moving furniture around all night or they were bowling.

Chalet Inn was wonderful! We booked a king suite with a balcony and we were in love with it. My only complaint is the kitchenette is non-existent, with only one sink in the room. The mini fridge was surprisingly big for what I was expecting though, and the housekeeping staff is so nice! Gatlinburg is so beautiful and walkable, we only wish we had more time to explore. Be sure to get a room with a view for the best experience :)

Said there was breakfast but we could never find it. Also the pool was closed the whole time we were there and that was something I was looking forward too seeing I am pregnant. It was 80 degrees everyday so not sure why it was closed. Room service was great and made sure we always had fresh towels

Easy pass next time

Stayed in room 202. This place was just OK. Having to go down the hill to check in at the EconoLodge was inconvenient but at least you could park in their lot instead of having to hike up and down that hill to the main strip. Gal at check-in was very nice and accommodating. Accomodations were blah. Very boring and felt more like a dungeon. Glad it was only for one night.
