Hotel Overview

Close to downtown and the University of Tennessee, the Best Western Plus Strawberry Inn & Suites makes a handy base in Knoxville, Tennessee, and an easy reach of both the city and the Smokies.

Breakfast brings eggs, fresh waffles and sausage each morning, and an indoor pool, a spa and a fitness room handle the downtime. The rooms add free high-speed internet, a refrigerator and a microwave, and a business center suits a working trip or a family base for a Smokies getaway.

Downtown Knoxville, the University of Tennessee and the convention center sit close by, with the zoo and a row of restaurants an easy outing, and the riverfront and Market Square filling an easy evening out by the river. Great Smoky Mountains National Park spreads its trails a short drive south, and Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Dollywood fill the days with mountain-town fun just beyond the edge of the city.
