The Spotlight on Rodeway Inn

Affordable Comfort with Easy Access to Knoxville’s Music Scene

Modern convenience meets wallet-friendly pricing at Rodeway Inn, located just off Central Avenue Pike in Knoxville. This no-frills, cozy spot offers all the essentials concert-goers need: clean rooms, free Wi-Fi, on-site parking, and a laid-back atmosphere that’s ideal for recharging after a night of live music. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, it’s easy to plan around your show schedule.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate Rodeway Inn’s straightforward convenience—you’re close to Knoxville’s top venues without the downtown price tag. The hotel’s peaceful setting means you can count on a quiet night’s sleep after the encore. Fast, free Wi-Fi and 24/7 access to snacks and drinks via vending machines make it a solid choice for those returning late. The express check-in/out is also a bonus for travelers on tight schedules.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a place to crash after the show
  • Solo travelers chasing a once-in-a-lifetime performance
  • Couples planning a low-key concert weekend
  • Fans wanting quiet downtime after loud venues
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who prefer to spend on tickets, not lodging

Food and Drink Options

If you're feeling peckish late at night, Rodeway Inn has you covered with 24-hour vending machines and an on-site coffee shop ready to serve up fresh brews any time. While there’s no full restaurant, the hotel’s location makes it easy to access nearby eateries within a short drive. If you're up early (or very late), there are breakfast options close by, and BBQ facilities are available if you want to grill and chill before the show.

Nightlife Options

While Rodeway Inn doesn’t feature on-site live music, you’re within easy reach of Knoxville’s nightlife—whether you’re heading downtown for bars or catching a late set at a nearby club. After the show, unwind at the hotel bar or take a dip in the pool before calling it a night.

What People Say

Reviewers often highlight the clean rooms, friendly staff, and great value for the price. Many guests appreciate the quiet environment after a night out and say it’s a solid base for exploring Knoxville’s music scene. The free parking and easy highway access are big pluses for those driving in.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note the hotel is a bit dated in style, and a few mention that amenities are basic—but for the price, it delivers exactly what’s promised. If you're looking for luxury, this might not be your spot, but if you're focused on the music, it's a smart choice.

The Bottom Line

Rodeway Inn is a no-fuss, budget-friendly stay for music fans who want a quiet, clean place to crash after the show—without breaking the bank.

Angela, Jackson, TN, visiting Bijou Theatre Knoxville

We drove 5 hours to come to the Bijou Theater in downtown Knoxville and had reservations at the Sleep Inn North. The staff was very helpful in making the stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible. It was much appreciated.

Poor

Liked: The bed was comfortablethats it
Disliked: The information regarding the hotel, was inaccurate. It said there was breakfast, There was no breakfast offered. There is no coffee maker, 1 bottle of shampoo, no hairdryer, 1 full size bath towel, and 1 washcloth. I tried to call and get more towels and inquire about a hairdryer, however the phone in the room didnt work. The bed was comfortable, so if you are just looking for a place to only sleep, it would be fine
