Embassy Suites by Hilton Gatlinburg: A Landmark for Tennessee's Tourism Growth
A Landmark for Tennessee's Tourism Growth
Tennessee's hospitality scene has recently received a major boost with the opening of the Embassy Suites by Hilton Gatlinburg Resort. This new Smoky Mountain gem has been recognized as the New Hotel of the Year by Hilton's Embassy Suites brand, marking a significant achievement for both the hotel and the region.
What sets this resort apart? Not only did it achieve this prestigious accolade during a transformative year for the Hilton brand, it also ranks fifth in global guest satisfaction scores among all Hilton properties. This acknowledgement isn’t just a win for the resort; it’s a triumph for Tennessee’s tourism landscape.
Local developer, Hospitality Solutions, led by Logan Coykendall, has been instrumental in bringing this vision to life. As a Gatlinburg native, Coykendall’s roots run deep in the Smokies, and he envisioned a property that would not only provide exceptional lodging but also reflect the beauty and culture of the area. According to Coykendall, the goal has always been to redefine the guest experience in the Smokies.
Commitment to Excellence
In an interview, Coykendall expressed how important it was for their property to set a new benchmark for the Smoky Mountains. He stated, _“For our locally-developed property to top Hilton's new all-suites hotels list sends a strong message that we are raising the standards for the Smokies.”_ The ambition is to emerge as the premier resort near Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
The hotel boasts modern amenities and unique features designed to enhance guest satisfaction. Among these offerings is the Guide Room, a concierge service paired with local experts ready to tailor plans for exploring the national park. This concept was inspired by their own travels, which highlighted the value of localized service and insider knowledge.
Spectacular Accommodations
Guests can expect spacious accommodations featuring 164 suites nestled amongst lush landscaping that includes inviting fire pits. The resort offers multiple recreational spaces, including three swimming pools equipped with innovative fun features like a lazy river and a waterslide. The experience is rounded out with complimentary made-to-order breakfast and evening receptions, along with delightful dining experiences at three on-site restaurants.
This upscale resort, described by Hilton's Senior Manager Shelbie Lock as _“a true mountain oasis,”_ aims to inspire travelers from all walks of life. Its appeal is further emphasized through the thumbs-up given by fellow guests and Hilton itself.
Community Impact
Culturally, the resort signifies a considerable leap for Gatlinburg. Mayor Mike Werner noted, _“Logan has always wanted to help his community grow and stand out, so he went beyond any standard Embassy Suites and developed a groundbreaking resort.”_ This statement encapsulates the essence of the Embassy Suites and its role in boosting local tourism.
The success of the Embassy Suites by Hilton Gatlinburg Resort not only signifies an essential milestone for its developers but also represents a turning point for tourism in Tennessee, particularly in the Smoky Mountains region. The ambition to elevate local hospitality, set new standards for excellence, and provide unique visitor experiences is something Tennessee can be proud of.
The Embassy Suites by Hilton Gatlinburg Resort has officially opened its doors, ready to welcome guests with the promise of high-quality service, thoughtful amenities, and breathtaking views.
