Knights Inn
A Knights Inn hotel provides affordable limited-service lodging for travelers looking for a straightforward place to stay. Our hotels are required to have at least 40 guest rooms and are built to serve guests who want practical accommodations with consistent brand standards. Typical amenities include complimentary continental breakfast, high-speed internet, flat-screen TVs, lobby coffee service, and, in many locations, a swimming pool. We operate as a hotel brand with on-site professional management and support for reservations, training, inspections, and operating standards. Knights Inn is designed for experienced hotel operators who want room to manage the property while delivering a recognizable guest experience.
