I have stayed at the Gillette Motel several times and keep going back every year. My parents and I were there over the 4th of July holiday weekend and we were not disappointed. (I am an adult traveling with older parents.) My elderly dad enjoys sitting outside on the porch; the chairs are very comfortable even for him. The rooms... more

We found the Gilette to be very clean and quiet. There were some problems at check in which were taken care of immediately. Couldn't have asked for better service. Nice to have queen beds instead of full, since that's what we are accustom to at home. Staff was friendly. Pool had to be shocked on second day so no swimming,... more

The Gillette Motel is one of the cleanest motels or hotels I have ever stayed in. It is cleaner than some four or five star properties I have visited. The place is "dated," but who cares. That is what gives it a non-chain feeling, which is good. Besides being clean and comfortable, it is convenient to everything. Could not recommend... more

We booked our stay at this motel with friends that had stayed here many times before. The atmosphere felt very safe, the staff was very friendly, the beds were comfortable, but the most noticeable aspect of this motel was exemplary cleanliness. This is the cleanest motel I have ever stayed in. We will definitely be repeat customers at this little... more

The motel is okay but really out dated. I felt like I was sleeping in my Ma maw's basement--right along with the old fashioned, cotton bedspread and 1960 furniture. The rooms are large but depressing. The only positive is its location and out side appearance. If your looking for modern opulence then skip this one. more

My husband and I live within a 5 hr drive from Gatlinburg and decided to spend a long weekend in January. We had never stayed at the Gillette, but it appeared neat from the curb. The first room we were assigned had a broken toilet. We were then moved into another room which was old, but okay... until...bedtime. I went... more

My husband and I attended an event at the Convention Center and the company holding the function booked this motel for us. At first, I was very disappointed - the rooms, while large, are very dated and the room looked "institutionalized" - the lights over the bed reminded me of hospital over-bed lights and the built in dressers/desk, etc. are... more

My husband and I recently went to Gatlinburg for a holiday de-stresser and discovered the Gillette Motel! We were both really pleased with how clean and affordable it was! It was very convenient to the "strip" and well within walking distance to everything! The room was very clean and suprisingly roomy and the bathrooms were great! My only complaint was... more
