Huge fan of the Read House!

The Read House is a fantastic, historical property with “Gilded Age” decor and feel. The staff was fantastic in assisting me with a booking issue, and even went out of their way to give me a room that was a nice upgrade from the one I had reserved. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quaint, historical “vibe”, and centrally located in downtown.

Nice historic hotel in great location

It was a very pleasant stay. The common areas are modern and updated. The bathtub in our room more represented the age of this historic hotel but it worked and was clean. The gardens outside our window were stunning and the location was perfect for us to walk to our restaurant and around the area. Check in was smooth and the valet and doormen were very friendly and welcoming.

Bad shower, great hotel otherwise

We came to Chattanooga as first timers and heard great things about the hotel. It was a beautiful stay with a wonderful dinner at Bridgeman's. The only compaint that I had was the shower in the premier suite. The pressure was terrible and the nozzle was not adjustable. As someone who has very thick hair, there was no way I was able to wash it with such poor water pressure.
