BEST WESTERN KNOXVILLE SUITES - DOWNTOWN, Knoxville

Situated right off I-75, the hotel provides straightforward car access to downtown Knoxville (8 km), the University of Tennessee (10 km), and the Knoxville Zoo (within a 15-minute drive). The Knoxville Expo Center is just 2 km away. For dining, Waffle House (0.5 km), a Mexican restaurant (0.5 km), Applebee's (0.5 km), Hooters (0.5 km), Starbucks (0.5 km), and Outback Steakhouse (2 km) are all nearby. An Ingles grocery store is also adjacent, and a gas station/convenience store is next door, making self-catering and quick supplies easy. While the hotel is convenient for car travel and offers free on-site parking, there is no airport shuttle; public transport options are limited, so a car is recommended.

Each suite is designed with a separate living area and bedroom, providing more space than a standard room. Units include a microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker (tea/coffee facilities), and a seating area. Bed configurations are available with either 2 or 3 beds. The rooms feature air conditioning, heating, an alarm clock, and ironing facilities. While some guests have noted that certain areas show wear and tear-such as dated decor or older fixtures-others have found the rooms to be clean, spacious, and comfortable. The split layout is appreciated by those wanting separate lounging and sleeping zones.

The hotel offers a breakfast buffet for a fee (cost varies; select dates for availability). Options typically include hot items such as eggs, biscuits and gravy, and a do-it-yourself waffle station along with continental choices. For other meals, there is no on-site restaurant, but the surrounding area has multiple dining options within walking distance or a short drive: Waffle House, a Mexican restaurant, Applebee's, Hooters, Starbucks, and Outback Steakhouse. An Ingles grocery store is also next door for self-catering.

Complimentary wellness facilities include an indoor swimming pool and a hot tub/jacuzzi. The pool area provides a space for swimming year-round, and the hot tub offers a spot to unwind. A fitness centre is also available for guest use. Note that there is no spa or wellness centre on site.

The hotel provides free wired internet in public areas, plus free on-site parking (no reservation needed). A 24-hour front desk, express check-in/check-out, luggage storage, and an ATM/cash machine on site are available. Additional services include a business centre with fax/photocopying, daily housekeeping (free), laundry (additional charge), and a safety deposit box.
