Top Hotels with Gyms in Cherokee

Good base for whom the Great Smokey Mountains want to explore. You don't expect the great luxury but clean rooms, good shower and a good breakfast (including). There are few good restaurants in the area, so we fled to Bryson City and Maggie Valley before. On the other side there is the Cherokee ******: for the lovers but not our thing. There was an alarm around 3 a.m. in the first night. So bad night, but we got a new room.

Overall we had a great stay. It was our first time ever at the casino so we were definitely out of our element. The casino was great as well as the restaurants. I’m gluten and dairy free but I found I could eat something in most all of the eatery’s. The room itself was nice, however there was little to no hot water. We stayed on the 16th floor the first night and decided to stay an additional night but had to move to the 14th floor. Both floors had the same hot water issues. We wanted to remain in our original room but was told at the front desk there was nothing available, but to go online and check. We found the same room type available online so we reserved it. This was an inconvenience to me. We had to check out of the 16th floor room and check in to the 14th floor room at 11a.m. This also put me paying the resort fee twice. When we checked in to the 14th floor there was no soap or lotions (not a huge deal) and only one towel/wash cloth. I requested more through Ivy the concierge and was told they’d leave some hanging on our door. I requested this twice and both times we did not receive the towels. Luckily my husband and I have been together for 27 years, so sharing a washcloth was not life-ending. We’ll definitely be staying again. I’m not sure if we’ll stick with The Cherokee rooms again.

In the scenic area, the price is moderate

We stayed in Cherokee to enjoy the Great Smokey Mountains National Park before heading to Gatlinburg. This is an excellent stop for close proximity to Cherokee. Food and shopping options are close by, along with easy access to the park and nature attractions. The hotel does not have many amenities itself, but the rooms are very comfortable and the hotel is practical. The breakfast had a lot of good options. We would definitely stay at this hotel again for a visit in the Cherokee area.
