Top Little Ponderosa Zoo and Rescue Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Knoxville West

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The staff was amazing and welcoming…especially the people in the food service area. The food was absolutely fantastic. I didn’t remember that dinner was included, so that was a pleasant surprise after a long day of flying. The spa was huge and the indoor outdoor pool was great. I will 100% be staying at this hotel chain again when possible. I had never heard of it before, but I wished I had."
