What are the best hotels in Knoxville?

Knoxville sits on the Tennessee River in eastern Tennessee, with a lively downtown packed with independent restaurants, craft breweries, museums and music venues, while the Great Smoky Mountains are an easy drive away. It’s a great spot for a city break with heaps of outdoor adventures on the doorstep. The best places to stay range from quirky boutique hotels to stylish city boltholes near the university. The Oliver is our favourite choice, with smart contemporary rooms behind a handsome Victorian façade, a trendy restaurant and a speakeasy bar that makes it just as appealing for a night in as a night out.
