Motel Baymont by Wyndham Helen (Helen, USA)

The Best Western Alpine is well-situated within the unique Bavarian Alpine village re-creation known as Helen, filled with authentic old-world features. The hotel is close to the center of town where all unique festivals and special events such as Oktoberfest (the world's longest), Christmas Market, Wine Festival and Fourth of July are within easy reach. .

The property is surrounded by stunning natural features such as the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Unicoi State Park, where hotel guests can enjoy interesting walking trails. The Nacoochee Mound archeological site is just under two miles from the hotel and provides a unique glimpse into the area's history. .

Traditionally decorated rooms reflect the uniqueness of the Alpine village of Helen. All rooms include en-suite bathroom facilities, writing desks, free Wi-Fi and cable access television. Microwave ovens, mini-refrigerators and coffee makers are also included. Upgrades feature real fire places and balconies.

Room walls are thin and not well insulated against outside noises such as restaurant bands and street traffic, as well as noises from neighboring rooms. Upgraded rooms on the top floor of the hotel may be a better option for light sleepers and those sensitive to noise. .

All rooms at the Best Western Alpine are non-smoking rooms. However, this can sometimes become pointless as the hotel has smoking barrels set up outside the rooms which allows some amount of smoke to penetrate into the rooms. .

The hotel offers upgraded rooms with a river view on the top floor. This is not quite the case as most of the view of the river is blocked by other buildings and trees. .
