Hotels near Nicholas Ball Park, Knoxville

Excellent stay! No complaints. Rooms were clean, halls were quiet, all offered amenities were available. Would absolutely stay here again. Holiday Inn Express probably has the best breakfast in the industry. This is located near the famous McKay’s, a huge used books, music, and video game and collectibles store. Also about a six minute drive to UT Medical Center.

Great Hampton/Hilton facility. Spacious, suite, large bath, separate coffee/bar nook. All modern amenities. And sooo clean. The staff is beyond pleasant. Delightful check in with Perry. Would stay here again. This is the nicest Hampton so far on our 2-week trip.

Highly recommend. The room wasn’t big but it was just my friend and I so we were very comfortable. Very clean. The people at the reception desk were friendly,helpful, and respectful. The housekeeper I ran into was very nice. 10/10. If you’re staying in Knoxville I highly recommend staying here great experience.

We've stayed here before. Our first visit wasn't the greatest but the location was convenient so we gave it another try. There were remodeling improvements in the overall room decor and buffet so the appearance was much improved since our last stay. The buffet area is small. I appreciated the staff member who kept the tables cleaned up and the buffet tidy. She was on the job, friendly, and checked if we needed anything. The location of the buffet is basically in the reception area with foot traffic going back and forth. If you are unfortunate enough to get a table next to the foot traffic, you have to deal with a draft from the front door. The food fare was standard. I'm gluten free so there were limited options. The room looked okay but the inside of the fridge wasn't clean, there were dried ring marks from someone's beverage still on the bed side table and there was a shampoo dispenser in the shower that was essentially empty. These little things make me question how well the room was cleaned. It took a while for the room to warm up and the bed covers were more appropriate for a summer than for a winter stay. There were no extra blankets or towels. We usually have no problems with the check in process and you don't realize how friendly staff is until they are not. The receptionist was almost sullen, and definitely not friendly. We were not greeted, not recognized as reward members, and barely acknowledged. She did not inform us as to our room number, breakfast hours, nor direct us to the location of the elevators which is typical reception protocol. The check out receptionist was just the opposite i.e. very friendly. Would I recommend staying here? I guess I could say it's ”clean enough” but not up to Holiday Inn Express standards.

Very nice hotel, clean, bright and convenient, right on campus. Parking is $ 20, which is a bit expensive. UTK is much more beautiful than when I was studying, I like it. Cumberland Avenue in front of the hotel is wider and cleaner than before.

My wife and I arrived at the Marriott Downtown Knoxville without a reservation and as luck would have it, Mason was working at the front desk and found a beautiful room for us on the top floor. Thank you, Mason! You made us feel very welcome and are why we love returning to the Marriott Downtown Knoxville.

It was great! Kyle, Josiah, and Sam were my valets and they were incredible! Very great experience, room was comfortable and restaurant was great. Will definitely stay here again - bed was great, gym was great, pool was great, valet was great.

This was our best hotel stay in ages. We were checked in by Natalie, who was friendly, helpful, and just fun. She made sure to get us a quiet room and made sure we were clear on how to get to our evening's destination. Our room was comfortable and well appointed. The wifi took a bit of finagling to get connected, but once we got it connected, it stayed connected and worked well. We slept soundly and comfortably, waking up refreshed. Check out went smoothly. We'll return if possible.

Probably the nicest of the Embassy suite locations I have visited! Right in the heart of Downtown Knoxville's Theatre District. You are walking distance to entertainment, shopping, restaurants - one block down from Market Square where live concerts are held and a less than 10 minute drive to University of Tennessee campus. And that's just the location! The amenities are remarkable and the hotel itself seems brand new with very upscale modern feel to it. Their cocktail reception is on the second floor with an outdoor setting option as well as an amazing rooftop bar (separate from the hotel-so guests cannot charge to room) that spilled into the hotel's swanky rooftop pool and lounge area. I enjoyed a full moon and a couple of glasses up there. There was an expanded market with an array of toiletries, snacks, microwavable foods, a wide variety non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages as well as an entire gift/souvenir section for UTK fans! There is also a local market across the street for anything more that you might think of. The room was a generous space with the usual closed door bedroom. The decor was minimalist sleek, the bed was extremely comfortable and everything was clean. I really appreciated the motion sensor night light in the bathroom. Breakfast was well staffed and always replenishing the food and coffee, extensive with the usual omelet station and a very nice dining area overlooking the grand main lobby. I will say the fitness center, although a nice facility with brand new equipment and provided just a little more than your usual few treadmills and a rack of free weights, it is strangely located right at the entrance of the hotel with glass windows all around for anyone to see walking by the hotel or into the hotel. So I did not use it. Also, I understand why there is only valet for this hotel as parking is a challenge downtown. It would be nice to inform guests that they have the option to park in the public garage where the 3rd level walk way leads directly to the hotel. We were only informed of this once we had already checked in and our car was with valet. All in all, we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Knoxville - it really felt like a Conrad hotel but at Embassy Suite prices!
