Staying at the Carnegie Hotel in Johnson City Tennessee

Sharing is caring!

When you walk into the lobby of East Tennessee’s premier AAA Four-Diamond Carnegie Hotel & Spa you immediately feel like you have stepped back into a century old hotel.  This boutique replica hotel feels like it’s from an era gone by but actually it was only built about twenty years ago.  Staying at the Carnegie Hotel in Johnson City Tennessee was a pure pleasure.  I had the opportunity of attending a travel conference recently but was also a guest of Johnson City Visitor Bureau for a tour of the local area.  This review is all my own opinions. #hosted

The Historic Look and Feel

The original hotel by the same name opened in 1891 but was destroyed by fire in 1910.  You find the same traditional décor and feeling of history from the moment you enter the lobby through the revolving doors, but with all the modern and up to date amenities you expect in a AAA Four Star Hotel.

There are so many touches which immediately makes you think you are in a 100-year-old historic hotel.

  • The elevator has arms showing the floor numbers instead of digital numbers.
  • The front doors and revolving doors are wood.
  • You find leather, brocade, and tapestry fabrics on the furniture.
  • Dark wood gives that rich feeling of an old mansion
  • A library can be found to sneak away for a few quite moments or to grab a book

While in Johnson City, you will find six breweries in a half-mile stretch of downtown, numerous local businesses, and so many great locally owned restaurants, you need a long stay to try them all. 

There are two parks for just enjoying a walk, listening to music on Friday nights, or checking out a monument with the history of Johnson City.  I can’t wait to go back to check out their upcoming Candy Land Christmas. 

Since Johnson City is within a few hours drive of many locations, consider The Carnegie Hotel & Spa, and Johnson City for your next vacation or long weekend, it’s the perfect spot.  A girl’s weekend might enjoy the Spa, a romantic weekend can visit the breweries, Wellingtons, then end with a couples massage at the spa.    The outdoor enthusiasts is within an hour of hiking and white water rafting.  Or book in advance for the NASCAR races in Bristol.
