La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Knoxville Papermill

8/10 Good

"Everything was clean. The sink in the bathroom seemed to be clogged, but we were only there one night so it wasn’t a big deal. Breakfast selections were good for a free breakfast and they were pretty good. Better than most places I’ve been. Conveniently located right off of I-75. Great for an overnight stay & we would stay here again."

THE TENNESSEAN Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed at this property several times, and every visit I am delighted. Great beds & sheets. Quiet rooms, spacious."

Days Inn by Wyndham Knoxville East

8/10 Good

"Property was adjacent to interstate for easy access -- traffic noise did not interrupt my sleep but very loud at pool area. Free breakfast was coffee, juice, cereal -- only. However directly across the street was Waffle House and a Circle K gas station that had sandwiches & snacks. I chose this place because of the pool and breakfast so I was disappointed with that. Room was nice and clean, staff was great."

Hampton Inn & Suites Knoxville-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in beautiful Knoxville. I would either request a room not facing the road and church or make use of the provided ear plugs and sound machine. Traffic noise from the road was rather loud without the ear plugs."

Comfort Inn & Suites Knoxville West

8/10 Good

"The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was amazing. The room did need some deep cleaning though. There were gnats in the bathroom and what looked like maybe a spot of chewing tobacco on the wall at the head of the bed. I got the best nights rest I’ve had in a while."
