Staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are great-make you feel like you're at home and not in a hotel room. Pool area is lovely and more like a resort pool than a regular hotel room. Restaurants and activities are easily walkable. My favorite place to stay in Chattanooga.

Liked that it was was a classy, nostalgic place that was close to several good places you could walk to. Staff was accommodating & friendly, mostly. The valet/door man seemed to be a little too controlling about where & how certain people could park to check in & drop off luggage but apparently the same rules don't apply to everyone. It's very selective & they can drive & park in the same manner others were told not to.

Fantastic…but…
The accommodations were everything we expected. We were very happy with our overall experience. The only downside was the guest in the adjacent room of our train car never turned off their (very loud) television all night

Nice hotel right downtown, walkable to everything. Stayed in the train car, which was cool but the hotel itself looked so nice that I kinda wished I had saved the dollars and just stayed in there. Will go back.

A unique hotel offering beautiful ‘living’ spaces. My Q bedroom was large, professionally cleaned and tastefully designed - it included: a beautiful bed with mood and task lighting, a European-style banquette that doubled as a cozy dining space or well-lit desk, a lovely bathroom w/walk-in shower and many surprise amenities not usually found in high end hotels. The friendly staff was professional, efficient and very helpful.

Affordable and Worth every penny!
Just needed to stop for a night on our way back from FL to Canada. Found it by mistake but so glad we booked a room. Such a gorgeous, unique boutique hotel! Beds are amazing! Front desk and bell services were superb. Didn’t get to the pool or the restaurant but both looked great! Easy walk to local bars and restaurants Would definitely recommend!!!
