The 93-room Holiday Inn Express Cherokee/Casino is a two-and-a-half-pearl option with a convenient location across the street from Harrah's Cherokee Casino. It's also a short drive from other attractions in the area. Rooms are basic and a bit old school, but include flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers. Wi-Fi is free only for IHG Rewards members, though the program is free to join. The free breakfast includes a selection of hot and cold items, and free coffee and tea are available 24/7. The outdoor pool is a plus in the summer, and there's a small fitness center, too. On-site parking is plentiful and free. Alternatively, travelers looking to save on rates could check out the Rodeway Inn & Suites On The River instead, where some rooms have whirlpool tubs and balconies.
