The Inn at Apple Valley, Ascend Hotel Collection

Nice room and location. We were able to get a river view room on the 2nd floor. It also overlooks Parkway, and the Titanic Museum, Hatfield V McCoy, Wonderworks, and Beyond the Lens could be seen not far away. It's a little bit noisy there starting in the morning but we didn't notice any noise during sleep time. The indoor pool was the only one open. It's not really big but it's nice. Breakfast was a hot, buffet-style hotel meal. Waffle maker, scrambled eggs and/or bacon, coffee, hot chocolate, french vanilla hot chocolate (not chocolate of course), various pastries, cereal, OJ, yogurt (with nuts and granola available). What I ate of that was good. We stayed 3 nights during our Spring Break. The area was extremely busy all the time. Pigeon Forge provides convenient access to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

very good place

A friend and I stayed three nights as a spur of the moment decision after leaving a so called four star resort that was a bust. We checked in to a third floor, two queen bed w/ sleeper sofa suite overlooking the street, pool and fire pit. The Inn at Apple Valley was very clean and the staff was professional and friendly - a rarity these days. They replenished supplies and straightened the room daily. Amenities included an indoor pool, indoor pool side hot tub (fizzy not hard jets), and an outdoor pool. There is also a fire pit, a nice outside patio and each room has a balcony. The breakfast was fabulous with a variety of items including eggs, meat, fruit, pancakes, waffles and fruit. There was something for every eating style. Additionally the breakfast was well attended by the staff and replenished frequently minimizing worries about food quality. All of the expected and advertised amenities were available (and in good working order) in the room. It was the first time in ages that I've not had to hunt down necessary supplies or asked for a repair! The location was a perfect central base to visit the various parts of Sevierville, Gatlinberg and Pigeon Forge. If you haven't been to the area in a few years, there have been some improvements to the traffic situation though I highly recommend middle of the week visits and not peak summer, week end, holiday times. Improvements over the last 10+ years include a peripheral connecter road, buses and trolleys to relive congestion. We ended up staying an extra day just because :) The Inn smells like apples everywhere. One thing is for certain, you will never forget you've been at the Inn at Apple Valley.

The Inn at Apple Valley has been a pleasant surprise! It’s quiet, quaint, and simple. Nicely appointed but no frills. Very clean. Air units in each room, some with “constant fan” for a background noise option. Beds extremely comfortable and soft. Location is excellent. Apple Valley Barn, restaurant, etc., is directly behind. Walgreens directly beside. Parkway directly in front- but with the balcony door closed you cannot hear anything! This is a very basic hotel but checks all the marks for a quick getaway!

Our third time staying here. Clean rooms. Always smells like apples! Very roomy. We usually have a room with a jet tub and fireplace which is cozy. Friendly staff. Nice pool and hot tub area. Just before going into Pigeon Forge strip. Across from Applewood Farmhouse restaurant. Free breakfast is decent.

This is a beautiful property! They have wonderful amenities to enjoy year round. We were in a room with two double beds. It was very comfortable for our family of four. The whole property was clean and welcoming. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. We plan on staying at this property again in the future.
