Lovely bar, rooftop lounge and pool (only 3ft deep) workout room plus our room had a Pelaton bike and various workout weights and balls, tension bands and great views of downtown and beyond. Great morning breakfast choices and helpful staff.
The Embassy Suite was very comfortable, the staff friendly and very helpful and the breakfast delicious and hot. The location was perfect for why we were in Knoxville. We will definitely come back.
The staff was super friendly, especially the breakfast team, they made breakfast a delight. The property was awesome and i loved the deep tub. I normally dont soak at hotels, but the tub was so inviting, that i couldnt resist. Great stay and definitely coming back
Overall, this was a really wonderful trip in Knoxville. We just wanted to check out the area you had some business meetings there locally and just spent a couples weekend. The staff were so wonderfully nice. The valet staff were so sweet and wonderful. It’s just Tennessee hospitality. We’re not used to that here in California, we are used to the nastiness that we deal with here! So all I would say, is go to Tennessee and have a good time. Wonderful people wonderful experiences.
The room was great! Very conveniently located. Didn’t particularly like the elevator system, it worked fine, my grandkids just like having the chance to push floor numbers! 😆
Ideal location, right in the heart of a beautiful/fun section of Knoxville. Five-night stay and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. Highly recommended!
Loved everything about this hotel. Super clean, modern, great breakfast, awesome rooftop bar, proximity to Market Square, theaters, etc. All wonderful. We have 3 teen boys and it met everyone's needs.
