The University previously had master agreements with the Knoxville Hilton, Holiday Inn World’s Fair Park and Crowne Plaza Knoxville hotels in the Knoxville campus area. These agreements have been incorporated into University framework orders. The hotels have provided CONUS rates or lower and discounts off catering menus.
For departments this means:
• Bidding is not required to use the services of these hotels, even if the event exceeds $10,000.
• Orders can be placed using the University’s Event Order Form and contracts are not required. Departments may sign their form.
Visit the Treasurer’s Office website for more information about using these preferred hotels in the Knoxville area.
