We spent ten days at the Hotel Pigeon Forge while we celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles. We were a bit concerned because we spent very little for a room at the Hotel Pigeon Forge, while friends who traveled with us spent a lot more for their accommodations in different places - resorts and cabins. We were concerned we might have regrets. We were very pleasantly surprised! Our room was awesome! Our friends who had more expensive rooms elsewhere had spiders and stinkbugs in their resort rooms, another friend complained of dirty carpeting and said he would not stay there again. But the Hotel Pigeon Forge was spotless and bug free! The owner of HPF is wonderful and gave personalized service, even offering to turn on the heater for the outdoor pool - just for our family! The lady at the front desk was very sweet, too - offering any help we needed concerning local events. In fact, before we even made reservations, this same lady (over the phone) was very sweet to us - explaining their breakfast items and location. Everyone went out of their way to make us comfortable and we felt like royalty. The room itself was spotless (I looked looked everywhere for bugs) and found no dirt during my search. Everything worked well - the sink, tub, lights, TV, remote, clock, blowdryer, etc. We had a gorgeous view of the pool and overlooking the main street of Pigeon Forge and the mountain backdrop. Lovely! Safe area and right in the midst of the tourist activity, restaurants, etc. Less than three miles to everywhere we wanted to visit, including two miles to Dollywood! Straight access to Gatlinburg and Maggie Valley. Clean and great prices! No rowdy guests in the evenings. In fact, all the guests were very nice. People held elevators and doors open for us, joked in the hallways upon meeting with them, etc. When I commented to my husband about how sweet everyone was and how good natured, he said it was because they, themselves, had been treated so kindly by the staff upon entering the hotel.
