The two-pearl Pigeon River Inn has the vibe of an average chain property and simple amenities like a seasonal outdoor pool and free basic breakfast. The lobby offers a lovely place to socialize next to a fireplace, while the West Prong Little Pigeon River behind the hotel attracts fishing enthusiasts. It's an eight-minute walk to WonderWorks and a three-minute drive to Tanger Outlets. The 70 rooms are homey in style and more contemporary than some budget properties in the area. Each is outfitted with mini-fridges and microwaves, and some have balconies and/or fireplaces. Free Wi-Fi can be a bit spotty. Ramada Pigeon Forge North might be a better option for travelers who want a gym and indoor pool.

With its budget rates, nicely landscaped grounds, and convenient location across from The Island and next to a river, Arbors at Island Landing Hotel & Suites is a solid choice for family travelers. Kids especially love s'mores and bonfires by the river on Friday nights (when weather permits). The property has a heated swimming pool, free pancake breakfast at a restaurant across the street, and daily snacks and lemonade in the lobby. The 94 guest rooms are clean but vary in terms of how recently they've been updated. Each is equipped with a flat-screen TV, microwave, and mini-fridge. Shular Inn Hotel is a good alternative for rooms that are more contemporary, an on-site breakfast, and a sauna.

The 145-room Inn at Christmas Place is an upper-middle-range hotel with a year-round Christmas theme and distinctive Bavarian architecture that sets it apart from many hotels in Pigeon Forge. Christmas-themed rooms cater to families and include modern features, while some rooms have jetted tubs, full kitchens, and furnished balconies. There isn't a restaurant on site, but a free hot breakfast has a large variety of items. The outdoor seasonal pool includes a splash pad and waterslide for kids. Indoors, the hot tub and pool are open year-round. Style-wise, this hotel is on a different level than many in town, though guests looking for more contemporary room may want to consider SpringHill Suites by Marriott Pigeon Forge.

The two-and-a-half-pearl La Quinta Inn & Suites Pigeon Forge offers a wonderful location in central Pigeon Forge that's a four-minute drive from The Island and a 12-minute drive from Dollywood. The 81 rooms are contemporary and come with flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, coffeemakers, and microwaves. There’s an indoor pool and hot tub, and a free breakfast buffet that includes waffles. Unfortunately, guests have complained about pet odors and bothersome noise from neighboring rooms with pets. It’s an overall good value, though families could also price the Clarion Inn Dollywood Area which has a pool with a waterslide, movie theater, mini-golf, and evening snacks.
