Farmers Market on the Square every Wed and Sat throughout spring and autumn. Along with music on select Tuesday and Thursday nights.

It is a very lively entertainment district and it is where people to go and have fun all day and sometimes into the night.

If you need it absolute quiet at night, this may not be the location for you.

The location was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere we needed to go. I appreciated the thoughtful details such as games, snacks, and extra blankets. The stay was comfortable and exactly as described. Please note that this area can be loud in the evenings; and we knew that booking the unit. I am looking to stay again in the fall because the check in process was seamless and the stay was cozy! I highly recommend.

About the host

Host profile image
Dubbed by the Knoxville News Sentinel as downtown Knoxville's cheerleaders, Scott and I have been a part of downtown revitalization for over 25 years. We love downtown!

As an international flight attendant for 21 years, I know what makes a great place to stay, and this is it.

Why they chose this property

This lovely flat at 36 Market Square is perfectly located. All the things you want to do (world-class dining, fantastic shopping, great nightspots) are short walks from your door. Even UT sports are only a twenty minute walk. Historic Market Square is THE center of Knoxville and on of THE best locations to stay in downtown.
You won't even need your car during your stay.
Supremely well located next to hundreds of award-winning restaurants, lively bars, art galleries, history museums, and boutique shopping of all kinds, this is the perfect place to stay for those who wish to immerse themselves in downtown Knoxville history and culture. A fair good amount of the places in downtown Knoxville are locally owned and operated, so you can really get a feel for our southern hospitality.
