Stayed at this site from june 11-june 13. Staff at the location were very friendly and helpful. Mvp was the valet sorry i didnt get your name. If you are planning on bringing your car just park at the locust garage which is right next to the hotel garage and way cheaper. The reasoning for 3 stars is because the cleanliness in room(we checked in and room garbage wasn't full taken out, empty water bottle on the floor and roach in the hallway). Hotel's pool was not operational as per front desk.

I've stayed at the Hilton Knoxville several times and always had a great experience. The location is ideal—an easy walk to the UT campus, Market Square, and the Old City. After a busy day, the outdoor patio, cozy fire pit, and bar are perfect for unwinding. The staff is consistently welcoming and attentive, making each stay feel effortless. Highly recommend.

Disappointing

I expected more. Lobby area is nice enough, and the bar and restaurant look nice (but we didn't go), but the room itself was sort of tired and outdated, the bed was not particularly comfortable, the pillows were flat.

Well appointed, food and service were great! Loved that it was all walkable! Wasn't a fan of the regulated room temperature. I missed having a freezer for my knee wraps and the microwave was down the hall. Just a bit inconvenient.

The hotel is located conveniently near the downtown activity and there is a parking garage next door. There are loads of homeless lingering around the property and there are times when homeless have lingered inside of the hotel. The elevators are extremely slow.
