Sunbright Holidays

Staff was outstanding! Very cute hotel, great location! Parking garage was less than a block away and only $3 for overnight parking.

service at dinner was a bit slow. server appeared to be new.

The location is the best part about this hotel, especially if you want to stay somewhere within walking distance of UTs campus. The staff at check in and the restaurant were amazing. The hotel is very quiet and has a Starbucks and a restaurant downstairs which is very nice. The cons: the building is very old. The elevators don’t all work so you will wait a very long time for an elevator. The rooms are outdated. Our sink was clogged where it would fill up to the top brushing our teeth or washing our faces and even though they came to “fix” it, it was not resolved. Expedia had this property listed as “free breakfast”. It was NOT free. We had 2 adults and 2 children staying in our room. We were given a voucher for 2 people only, up to $18 per person to use for the “restaurant” for breakfast. We went one time- if was a buffet- and we were charged $18 per child and $28 per adult. We ended up with a bill for $82 for breakfast as they included a 25% tip as well (to be fair the service was good getting us drinks but it was a buffet). Parking also is more than Expedia listed. On game weekends, parking is $55 per day and is the same if you valet or self park. All in all, great location and convenient but hotel was run down and had lots of extra costs.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Stay at Hilton Garden Inn – Knoxville, Papermill Road! I had an absolutely amazing experience at the Hilton Garden Inn in Knoxville on Papermill Road! I stayed in a King Deluxe room for my birthday, and my family joined me with two additional rooms. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable — exactly what you’d hope for. The staff was spectacular — friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make our stay special. The food was delicious, and the location couldn’t be better — convenient to everything yet peaceful and relaxing. I can’t say enough about how amazing this hotel is. I’m usually a tough critic, but this place truly impressed me. I’ll never stay anywhere else when I come back home to Knoxville! Highly recommend!

Perfect for a UT game or visit to campus. Very close. We were there visiting family. Parking is difficult. Breakfast is ok but was understaffed and out of items (on a weekend). Small lobby. Room was ok. Fitted sheet kept coming off bed. Bring your own pillow.
