Top Oak Ridge Hotel Reviews

Comfort Suites Knoxville North

8/10 Good

"Baggage luggage racks weak & wobbly. Lobby smelled of dirty mop water. Rooms okay!"

Crowne Plaza Knoxville Downtown University by IHG

8/10 Good

"Stay was good. I was trying to find a large bag for soiled clothes. Housekeeping on our floor didn't speak English. Went down to desk, he advised to check with gift shop which had a grocery sized bag. On the way back to room I saw another housekeeper and she knew exactly what I needed."

Red Roof Inn PLUS+ & Suites Knoxville West-Cedar Bluff

8/10 Good

"Offers free WiFi, pool, hot tub and more. Staff was very friendly, place was kept clean but building was a bit older and maybe not fully maintained. Looks like it needs some repair or remodeling. Great location wise, next to lots of great restaurants options much in walking distance from the stay. Steakhouses, Italian restaurants and much more."
