I have stayed at the Riverbend several times over the past few years and each time received a clean room with a quiet, tranquil view of the hills around Bryson City. This is a smaller, older hotel but kept in good condition. It is just a few feet from the river, and one can enjoy a peaceful afternoon just taking... More

Still traumatized! German roaches everywhere! Still can't believe I slept there! Ughhhh!!!! Camped the next night and there where a lot less bugs... More

I got there, paid cash upfront, got into the room late and found feces on the sheets. this was horrible. Out of respect because it was so late, i did not want to disturb anyone, so i slept on a blanket i had brought. The next morning i told the office i could not stay here under the conditions, and...

We called this hotel this morning and was told that they only had one room left. My wife booked a room without looking at their ratings or discussing their non refund policy. Upon arrival, I determined why they do not show a good picture of this facility. Though kept as neat and clean as possible, the cinderblock hotel was a... More

I am not sure how the owners of this facility remain in business. I have traveled in the North Carolina mountains for nearly 40 years and have never met such a distasteful and rude owner/operator. Clearly the man is not from NC, as I have always gotten along swimmingly with the locals. The facilities are average, at best. However, the... More

My Husband and I have stayed here several times. It is a very nice quite older lodge. If you are looking for the ritze keep going. This is perfect for a couple getting away for a long weekend or even a family looking for adventures in the mountains. It is in a great location to go and visit many different... More

The place was very dirty, sheets smelled bad. I had to bring inside my own blankets. The people are not friendly rather ridiculously rude when told about it. They cursed at me. They not refund my money for days I did not stay at this place. I was so grossed out I would not ever stay or recommend anyone to... More

This place is very old and yet very clean. Some of the rooms aren't so nice while others are very charming. The price is good. Only problem is they will not give you a refund if you cancel in advance unless you cancel at least a full week in advance. Unfortunately, the hurricane threat on the coast of North Carolina... More

This "mom-and-pop" motel sits right on the river, literally just a few steps outside the room is the Tuckasegee River. A lot of "regulars" tend to stay there and several guests were taking advantage of the grills to cookout and enjoy supper on the banks of the river. We enjoyed sitting by the river at dusk and watching the beaver,... More
