Walking distance to tons of shopping and sites, University. Didn't like that the pool was closed in July. Didn't like paying for parking. That should be part of the hotel costs.

Super nice

We were in Knoxville for a smokies game. This hotel is fantastic. Downtown and close to everything. The firefly outdoor bar is really nice and great place to hav a nightcap. Since we couldn’t check in until 2, the staff graciously allowed us to hang out at the pool (located on the 3rd floor with nice city views) until our room was ready. And compared to the other downtown luxury hotels, this Hilton was a great value.

This would be a great 3 star hotel. There was chocolate candies all over the floor through out the elevator and hallways which is not good when having a dog with you. The staff was really nice. The room was very loud as there was a kids basketball tournament. Kids were knock and ditching all night.

The facility needs a water bottle filling station(s) in addition to the small water dispenser in the workout facility. We were very sad the pool was closed when we got there. We drove for 13 hours and were very excited to relax in the pool. There was a strong smell of majarauna in our room and almost asked for a different space but it faded over time. Paying for parking was a surprise.

Comfy beds, good view, quiet and convenient location. Starbucks there and good crepe place around the corner. Parking was annoying. $35 per night and they want you to park, come into the hotel to pay and then go back out to your car to put a tag in the window to make sure it’s not towed. A little annoying to have to go back out to the dirty garage after a long day of traveling.

Lobby was nice but rooms very outdated, a bit run down. Not what we typically expect of a Hilton property. Beds were awful. One bed in our room offered a smaller/double bed mattress on a larger sized frame, so pieces of the frame were exposed - sticking out on the side & we kept running into them by accident. We all checked out with bruises on our ankles or calves. Location was very convenient. Close to UT and close to Market Square area…both within walking distance.
