Inn at Christmas Place Named a Top 25 Hotel in 2011 TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice Awards

PIGEON FORGE, Tenn. (Jan. 20, 2011) – The Inn at Christmas Place was chosen as a Top 25 Hotel by TripAdvisor® in its 2011 Travelers’ Choice® awards.

Now in its ninth year, the annual TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice awards honor the world’s best hotels, earning their distinction from those who know them best – real travelers. The Inn at Christmas Place ranked sixth in the Top 25 Hotels in the United States list.

Unlike any other hotel awards programs in the world, TripAdvisor® Travelers' Choice® winners are based on the millions of real and unbiased reviews and opinions about hotels on tripadvisor.com™ and content from across the web.

Have you spent a night at The Inn at Christmas Place?  The owners, the Biggs/Barnes/and Rodriguez families, and General Manager Ray Ogle have always made hospitality, service and luxurious comfort the priorities at The Inn, and guests definitely notice the difference.  

From its exclusive Sleep in Heavenly Peace bedding, Christmas décor throughout the beautiful property, regular visits and concerts by the Singing Santa, free Christmas in July and December concerts and activities exclusively for guests, to the endless supply of coffee and hot cider in the lobby, cookies and milk at bedtime and Hershey’s KISSES® in every guest room, The Inn is a standout with travelers of all ages.

Prompting guest comments such as “Bringing Christmas to Life,” “Perfect and Flawless,” “Amazing, it is like Heaven,” and “Highly Recommended,” The Inn at Christmas Place has earned its national ranking and plans to keep moving up the list to be the top US hotel. Many guests plan a return trip even before leaving town. Isn’t it time you experienced luxury right here in the heart of the Smokies, on the parkway in Pigeon Forge?
