Hampton Inn Caryville-I-75/Cove Lake-State Park

This is my 4th or 5th stay at this Hampton Inn in Caryville, Tennessee. I love the friendly staff and how clean the facility is...... "Jacob" greeted me and asked how my trip was.... I love the warm, delicious cookies at 6 pm in the lobby..... I have to say they went over the top, when I walked in my room and the TV had a WELCOME CHARLOTTE on the screen...... Now that's a great Personal Touch!!! I recommend them to my family and friends. I'll certainly be back. Great Job!!!!!

That I couldn't stay longer..... I have no complaints.

What a wonderful gem. The older ladies that run the place have been there at least a decade and are very sweet and helpful. Lobby coffee & tea 24/7, free breakfast with good choices like the powder based hot eggs and bacon and silver dollar size pancakes machine. Awesome 360 degree mountain views and rooms with balcony view of Cove Lake. The bed and comforter were so smooth cool and cozy my wife didn't want to go back home. East and south there are multiple lakes due to the Norris dam so lots of water view state parks.

Most of Tennessee is a speed trap. Police seem very nice but Google maps kept warning me so I avoided the many many repeating speed traps. The right lane on 71 South is all trucks. The left should be high speed but for the occasional truck passing a truck or  selfish moron turtles. Lovely winding road though and green views all relaxing.

It had the best bathroom we saw on the trip. A pet peeve of mine is having no place to hang things in the bathroom. So many places have few towel bars and hooks...if any. They really put thought into the bathroom layout and amenities. Great renovation! This is also a great location. It's directly across from Cove State Park and has a beautiful view of the mountains.

Can't think of a thing.

Staff was cheerful and welcoming. Bed was comfortable and the breakfast was beyond what I expected. Definitely a step up fro. Places we usually stay for this price.

The only thing I can say is the curtain setup was a small issue. The heavier curtain did not cover the entire window, leaving only a sheer one that allowed too much light in

The breakfast buffet was excellent as far as a hotel is concerned, and the dining room has a unique memorial to the grandfather of the owners, who apparently died in a moonshiner raid, and the grandmother who carried on without him.

I wanted to do some work, and instead of having a quick wifi connection with a password, it seemed that I had to give a whole raft of personal information to sign up as a user. I did not bother, and did not get my work done. Disappointing.

Easy to find and had a breakfast buffet from 6-10, which made it nice to not feel rushed to get down to eat

The hot breakfast selection changed every day, not a bad thing, except that it sometimes sat a while due to no one eating that particular breakfast item and so it was stale sometimes.

We have stayed here a total of 3 times. Every time we enjoy it. The view is amazing. We really like the swings out front that you can sit in a take in the beautiful view of the lake. Staff is always friendly and it is a nice, clean hotel. We will be back!

I liked everything; great view of mountains and lake. Conveniently located right off I75 but it felt secluded. Rockers and benches outside where we could just sit and enjoy the beauty around us. Hotel was clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast was great. Room was clean and everything in good working order. Beds were comfy. Staff was EXCELLENT. Very friendly, and helpful. We left an item at the hotel and staff (Dalton?) was very responsive in getting it sent back to us. Much appreciated!!

Great staff. Very clean and comfy rooms.loved the breakfast! I also loved that the history of the property was added to the decorations throughout the site-farm equipment tastefully added to the outside and within, pictures of the farm and (so cool) the jacket of John Ayers from the real moonshine days. What history! The character these historical items brought to the inn were truly wonderful. It made my stay!

This is a low key area. Not at all a tourist spot. We were there to attend a funeral. So there is not much to pick from in the area that you can trust to be clean and bug free let alone any perks. This place was better than some I've stayed in in tourist spots such as Gatlinburg. Hot delicious free breakfast was a bonus and for 100. The room was perfect. Beautiful view as well.

Nothing to not like
