Downtown Knoxville Hotel Deals

Hilton Knoxville
Old. Not clean. Not comfortable. Drafty. No microwave. No vending. Too expensive.

THE TENNESSEAN Hotel
Nice and clean, good bed, but a bit dated for price. Banged up reddish brown furniture. Marriott connected next door has good coffee shop, and place is walking distance to many restaurants.

Crowne Plaza Knoxville Downtown University by IHG
Staff was very courteous. Room walls are extremely thin and was able to hear TVs from next room and voices clearly from hall. Rooms overlooking Main Street were unfortunately subject to multiple fire truck sirens throughout the night very clearly heard. Location is great for downtown however.
