1920s flapper style hotel - very classy

Enjoyed the 1920s flapper styling of this hotel down to the soundtrack in the lobby and old style billiards room behind the bar. It was very peaceful and the staff were great!
Chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What a charming old hotel in Chattanooga. The staff was very friendly and polite. I recommend this hotel for wonderful stay.
Christopher, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Underwhelming hotel room

The staff was super friendly. But we were in an older tower of the hotel and it kind of gave me “converted hospital” vibes. That said, the common areas of the hotel are beautiful and very well designed. Next time we stay there, I will be requesting the other side of the hotel.
