The hotel's history began in 1876 when German immigrant Peter Kern had the building constructed to house his Kerns Bakery, an ice cream parlor, a confectionery and a grand ballroom. Kerns Bakery remains an integral part of Knoxville's business community, located not far from its original location. The building became a hotel in 1981 to accommodate visitors coming to the Worlds Fair, held in Knoxville the following year. The Kerns Building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
