Places to Stay:
Hotel-Motel-holiday inn:
Twice a year, Bristol Motor Speedway (BMS) hosts the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Despite the lack of mainstream coverage when compared to other professional sport's leagues, NASCAR is one of the most popular sports in the United States, second only to the NFL. During the races at Bristol, the human population swells, filling up the campgrounds and hotels.
Because of the races as well as other factors, there are many hotels/motels here in Northeast Tennessee. This area has a respectable range in the quality and price of these hotels/motels. There are many websites like Kayak, Expedia, & Hotels.com from where quality and availability can be determined. Links to nearby Hotels using Google Maps are linked here. |
Bed & breakfasts:
I am ignorant on the quality & quantity of Bed & Breakfasts here in Northeast Tennessee, but my ignorance is by no means a negative review of local Bed and Breakfasts, merely an admission of my lack of good information on this subject..

Not to sound like a broken record but I am ignorant on the quality and quantity of hostels here in Northeast Tennessee. My ignorance is by no means a negative review of local hostels, merely an admission of my lack of information, good or otherwise. Links to nearby hostels using Google Maps are linked here.
