Its Thanksgiving weekend and our family wanted to go see the festival of trees in Knoxville at the convention center, we decided to stay at the Holiday Inn Worlds Fair hotel.WOW is the only word i can use, it felt like a five star resort. We are no small family to say the least we have 5 boys(12,8,3,2,1) and had two nieces(12,8) and grandparents with us for this holiday trip.
The hotel put us in a great corner suite with a living area and kitchenet, we had three full bathrooms which was much needed to say the least and then the grandparents got their own room away from the children to relax. Each room had it own large flat screen so there wee plenty of space to watch football for me and papaw while the kids got to watch their shows.
Room service was very fast and even brought us breakfast after they were onto the lunch menu one morning, the hotel was able to get me tickets to the festival of trees and have them waiting on me at the hotel when we arrived, breakfast on the last day was fit for royalty over looking the worlds fair park on a winter morning(all that was missing was the snow). Management was amazing, when we left the room with one key to a door and accidentially left the safety lock on that door(went out another door) they happily created another key for us and offered to go up and remove the safety lock from that door. When we needed directions to local restaurants the staff at the front desk had maps and gave easy directions to go to all of Knoxville's best restaurants downtown which all are within walking distance!
There was a ice ring at market square(where there is 10-15 AWESOME restaurants) with live music that the kids went crazy for that was only a couple blocks from the hotel. And the main reason for the trip, the festival of trees, AMAZING the activites, trees, and lights that were there. If you have children then this trip and staying at the Holiday Inn Worlds Fair right beside the convention center is one you need to put on your bucket list, it was truely memories that we all will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you so much to everyone that made our Thanksgiving so memoriable at the Holiday Inn Worlds Fair, your hotel truely represents the best in hospitality!!!!
