6/10 Good

The only reason I am only giving 3 stars overall is because the beds were not comfortable and the wlls were paper thin so we could here the neighbor's tv all night! Otherwise the staff was super friendly and accommodating. The place was clean just outdated. The pool area was nice and the cafe was excellent!

Great place to stay during Holidays
When i first arrived i was greeted very nicely and checked in like normal, everything went just fine until i got to my room and realized i had been given the wrong room. I called and the desk clerk put me into the right room almost immediately.

Great Ma and Pa hotel
The front desk was amazing! We stayed here after a rough experience with another hotel and couldn’t have been more pleased with customer service, room accommodations, and location. The room was clean, the front desk was beyond helpful and kind, and the pool was so fun and clean.

Everything was great, but they really should have a time for the children to exit the pool for adults cause I could not enjoy my swim due to so many children in the pool but we will be returning

Sydney James Mountain Lodge King room w/ J & FP
My husband and I booked a little “getaway trip” to Gatlinburg! We were satisfied with our room at Sydney James Mountain Lodge. The room was a bit dated and could have used updates, but overall was good. We booked the jacuzzi/fireplace king bed room. Everything worked as it should. The Lodge is far enough away from town that you can’t hear everything going on when resting, but also close enough you can walk to town! I would book again with Sydney James Mountain Lodge.

Our stay was phenomenal exactly what we needed. Everyone was very kind, I would personally like to thank Audrey! I had reserved the room and was charged but my bank didn’t let it go through, so I called and she reassured me my reservation was still saved. I was able to get it to go through, she was incredibly kind and helpful to my husband and I throughout our stay! We will definitely be back this time next year to it all over again. Thanks so much for everything! It was definitely a trip for firsts saw a baby black bear 🐻
