Pros

Rooftop lounge with Smoky Mountain views

Multiple dining venues including grab-and-go market and regional cuisine

Seven landmarks within 0.5 miles walking distance

Eight restaurants within 0.3-0.5 miles radius

Cons

Five Thirty Lounge operates only on select days

McGhee Tyson Airport requires transportation arrangements

“Gay Street's pulse is right outside; inside, the modern design and well-equipped rooms make a comfortable base for exploring Knoxville's culture, and I noted the rooftop bar's impressive Smoky Mountain views. A real advantage is the dog-friendly policy, extending to two dogs per room, plus the plentiful breakfast options. It's a solid choice for a downtown stay.”
