Great location plus helpful & friendly staff
Great location in the heart of Helen. It’s within easy walking distance to the shopping and so many great restaurants. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They even texted us 30 minutes after we checked in to make sure everything was okay with our room.

Great location next to the river. Our kids enjoyed playing in the river and swimming in the pool. Breakfast was excellent with lots of options. Juice, coffee, and cookies available all day. Comfy beds and clean, spacious bathroom.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff were friendly, the hotel was clean and the rooms were very large. The location was great. It was off the main street so it was a very quiet area.

Birthday Getaway
One night getaway to celebrate a birthday. Loved the location, we could easily walk to the main area of Helen for shops, restaurants and the bakery. Our King Suite was fabulous, like a small apartment. Nice little area by the river at the back of the property. Really close to othe attractions like the castle, Unicoi State Park and Anna Ruby Falls. Property is being renovated so there were some noisy moments and buliding materials on the grounds, but we were aware of this before we stayed. Highly recommend. Would stay again!

This is your typical older hotel. It’s not great to look at and the wear and tear is obvious. The lobby and breakfast area are a bit shabby. However, renovations were underway while we were there. All employees were very nice. The room was fine, bed was fairly comfortable. We ended up with a jacuzzi tub that needed deep clean but again that wasn’t a big deal. The thing that makes this hotel great is the ideal location. Not only is it walking distance to the shops and restaurants, but it is right on the river with a nice green space, picnic tables stairs right in to the water. Here you can watch the tubers all day and skip rocks in the evening. This hotel was perfect for my family although I do feel the price I was charged was a bit ridiculous, but I booked last minute so maybe that’s on me.

This property was a bit higher in proce but it was clean with friendly staff. I appreciated the free coffee and tea available at all times. I also felt the location was perfect for exploring Helen. Most shops were within walking distance which was wonderful considering the parking lots were pay to park in town.
