Overall, the hotel was very nice. Our room was spacious and very clean. The air conditioning was not working properly in the room which led to a tumultuous night’s sleep. The elevators and hallways needed vacuuming, even early in the morning, but the room was great and that’s what really matters most. Ed, at the front desk, was absolutely the best part of our stay. He greeted us promptly, offered prosecco and was very thorough with his introduction of the hotel. Later that evening after returning from an event, Ed greeted us by name, offered us water and asked if we needed anything else. We were extremely impressed and were beyond impressed with his professionalism and courtesy. It’s a rarity these days!

Great place for taking photos. Sunsphere was cool besides the dirty windows. Making great photos not possible from inside.

Popular places to visit

Visit the observation deck for a great view of Knoxville.

From the city's website:

The Sunsphere was constructed for the 1982 World's Fair and during that time, it served as the symbol to the Fair. It was also home to a full service restaurant and the Observation Deck, which cost $2.00 for the elevator ride up for a visit. The Sunsphere closed to the public with the Fair's end and remained vacant or underutilized for most of its post-fair life. The Sunsphere and the Tennessee Amphitheater are the only structures that remain from the 1982 World's Fair.
