Top Rocky Top Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Knoxville N - Merchant Drive by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"From check in to breakfast the staff was excellent. Polite and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel."

Hyatt Place Knoxville Downtown

4/10 Poor

"Hotel is in a good location. We were able to take advantage of the public parking which is convenient and not difficult to get to versus the $45/night valet charge. The water pressure in our room was VERY POOR. We had an issue with our commode flushing properly. The maintenance engineer came quickly; however, he changed the handle, and the commode could no longer be flushed with the lid on---that was bizarre. We were to have housekeeping daily; we did not. We had to retrieve towels for the next morning. We had very noisy neighbors. They were loud. Perhaps the walls were thin as well. The morning breakfast was very good. "
