ORNL Guest House
The ORNL Guest House
The ORNL Guest House, operated by the Paragon Hotel Company, will open Monday, August 15. The Guest House is located at 8640 Nano Center Drive, part of the Chestnut Ridge facility complex. Reservations may be made by emailing reservations@ornlguesthouse.com.
The Guest House is a 3 floor, 47 room, 71 bed facility (23 rooms with King beds and 24 rooms with 2 ex-long double beds). The ORNL Guest House is a smoke-free, drug-free, and alcohol-free facility.
Room rates will be $90 per night, plus all applicable taxes, the current GSA per diem rate for the Oak Ridge area. The Guest House is available to researchers and other individuals having business with DOE or UT-Battelle at ORNL.
The guest rooms feature either a king-sized bed or two double beds. Other room features include a small refrigerator, microwave oven, TV, and internet access.
The building will also have a lounge area, conference room, fitness and laundry facilities, vending machines, and a "mini-store" for the purchase of provisions. An Cash Machine is available at a nearby facility.
The building is a LEED Silver Building, an environmentally advanced construction that meets the standard set by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), part of the U.S. Green Building Council. The Knoxville firm of Benefield Richters CO is the architect and Blaine Construction built the facility.
Important Note: Making reservations to stay at the ORNL Guest House does NOT authorize entry into ORNL. You must have a valid DOE badge or an approved Visitor Pass as arranged by your ORNL host. If you have any questions, contact your ORNL host. The Guest House operator has no ability to authorize entry into ORNL, so guests arriving at the portal without the proper authorization will be refused entrance.
For more information, please contact Martha Justice.
The building is being funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science.
