I would not want to bring my wife or young kids here, but for a single guy passing through its OK. Once in a while it is nice to break free from the hotel/motel chains, and experience the seedier more interesting side of motor lodging. This place has a grand aspect from the busy strip mall type street. The lobby... More

If anyone is qualified to write a review of this place it is me. There was a huge hail storm in Knoxville in the spring of 2011 and I am a storm chaser that repairs hail damaged homes. I am a general contractor and came to Knoxville for work. When I first arrived in Knox I thought I would be... More

I read some reviews for this Hotel and should have listened what people had to say. This is the weekend bar hotel and for $179 you can stay the whole week, bet they didn't advertise that to ya did they?. Well that $179 draws in the roofers, landscapers you name it. Not that these guys don't deserve a cheap place... More

All our... More

I travelled to Knoxville to visit with family. The HJ Plaza was a really good value for the money. We had a king size room with a small fridge and the expected ammenities (HBO, iron, etc). The room seemed recently renovated. The rate was great for the area, which is the more affluent part of Knoxville. The staff was really... More
