Sleep Inn & Suites

I travel all the time for work (20 – 25 wks a year). I’m all over the country. I should note I have Gold Status with Marriott & Hilton. This is one of the best mid-​class hotels I’ve ever stayed in — PERIOD. Everything about this place is great. The folks at the front desk were great. The room was a Jr. suite that was very nice. A couch and coffee table besides the bed of course. The bed was great and TV channel line up was very good. If you’re coming to Middlesboro — LOOK NO FURTHER — stay here. The General Manager is super friendly and wants you to enjoy your stay. Bonus Item: Choice Privileges members get a nifty bottle of water with their name on it :)

Beautiful, safe, immaculate property. Beautiful views, we saw deer. Very accommodating staff. Amazing breakfast selections, wonderful and restocked frequently. Fruit infused water in the lobby, guest laundry. New rooms and one of the most engaged professional staffs. A knock out value for the price !!

Very clean, friendly staff, and good breakfast. No complaints at all. Would definitely recommend!

Great hotel. The staff was amazing. I deducted a star because the heating system was LOUD. Like hilariously yet scary loud. Sounded like a mix between a jack hammer and a souped up muscle car’s engine. It was so loud I laughed in disbelief. It did warm the room and we only need to turn it on once so it wasnt a big deal for us.
They have quiet hours starting at 10 which was great because we really needed rest that night. The room was clean, the rollaway bed we needed was perfect, and the view from the room. was beautiful.
The breakfast was just enough for us… eggs, sausage, cereal, waffles, coffee and more along with very nice staff.
Oh…they had warm cookies in the lobby and fruit infused water. Two nice homey touches.
Despite the loud heating system, we would stay again. The staff, amenities, and comfortable room made it a great stay.

Very nice & clean facility! Middlesboro really needed this Hotel. Staff is friendly & accommodating! Beds slept great! Nice fitness center. Breakfast was good also. My go to place when in the area :-)

This place feels like home. Staff is very welcoming and helpful. Amenities are awesome. Breakfast has a little bit of everything for everyone. Only con would be to say it has no pool.

If this hotel was in my state, my husband and I would be taking weekend trips to it. It was amazingly great.
You know when you arrive at a hotel after being in a car for 8 hours, and you put that card key in the door and you’re just not sure what to expect? You slowly open the door and whisper to yourself «okay, what did I pay for?» Well, the Sleep Inn in Middlesboro is one where you open the door and say «I ROCKED THIS RESERVATION!»
The room is beautiful. Really, if this hotel was in Nashville you’d be paying $ 200/​night for it. It’s a luxury stay on the KY-​TN border. We (me, husband and son) were so comfortable and relaxed in the room that we ended up just ordering some pizzas and having dinner in the room, rather than go out.
Prior to this stay we had spent two nights at two different hotels — both with horrible beds which made our backs ache for miles and miles. The beds here? Wonderful. Soft. Comfortable. Restful.
The front desk staff — pleasant, nice, smiling. The breakfast area was great, well-​stocked, and lots of variety (I posted some pics.)
If I ever go to Middlesboro or to any of the surrounding areas again, this is the ONLY place I will stay.
Some Tips
The hotel is set back off the road. The driveway up to the hotel is in between a Hardee’s and a Holiday Inn Express. There’s an 84 Lumber there, and the hotel was built way behind it.
This is a dry county. So if you’re planning on going out for drinks, or purchasing something to take back to your room, you can’t. So, plan ahead if you’d like an adult beverage.

12 Oct 2012. We stayed two nights while visiting Cumberland Gap National Park and was delighted with facility, staff and cleanliness. Considering what they offer, I consider the rate very good value. Thanks to the Unilocal reviewers for the good recommendation!

Wow!
I was hoping for just a decent night sleep and a decent place to stay. Normally I’m a Marriott guy… but their prices were crazy for 4^th of July week… so I’m saving money here.
This place could match the best Courtyard I’d ever stayed at. It was clean, 100% smoke free and the room was immaculate!
Wi-​fi worked great, nice flat panel on the wall with HD channels.
Staff was friendly and very helpful!
Parking is plentiful.
Short drive to Knoxville, TN if you are looking for a nice place within a reasonable distance.

Awesome, Brenda at front desk was great. New and clean

New «Designed to Dream» style Sleep Inn & Suites opened in Oct 2010.
New and clean. Sets up on a hill to itself. No eateries within walking distance, but plenty a short drive down the hill. The staff is very friendly and eager to please.
