Top hotels in East Knoxville

Days Inn by Wyndham Knoxville East
"The beds were comfortable. However, this hotel is right next to a busy highway and you here semis all night long. The bathroom sink and shower drains did not drain very well. The lobby was nice. We left early in the morning so cannot comment on the breakfast."

Hilton Knoxville
"Hidden fees included $37 a day to park your car. Shower water was not warm, beds were hard, pillows were uncomfortable, and grout and wallpaper was peeling away in the bathroom. The staff was actually wonderful though, and almost made up for the rest."
