  • Carnegie Hotel, 1216 W. State of Franklin Road, Johnson City, TN, 423.979.6400, [1]. A nice hotel, with a very nice bar and restaurant. Claims on their website that they are a revival of the old hotel that once existed- and this might be true in terms of their inspiration- but the hotel building itself is only a few years old.  edit
  • Ramada Limited Johnson City, 2606 N. Roan St., +1 432-282-4011, [2].
  • Fox Manor Bed & Breakfast
