    Great bathroom!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The pool was a little cold. On the 4th of July the bar closed early.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It’s my go-to hotel in Chattanooga!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is staying in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The history of the hotel is really amazing to read about. You can just walk around the hotel and be amazed by the woodwork and crown molding with the beautiful chandeliers. I would stay here again, really can't get enough of how pretty this hotel is.

    Beautiful, historic hotel with an amazing indoor pool!! Staff were friendly, and helpful. Valet parking was easy and convenient. We had a great stay with our two children!

    Best hotel! We took our little girls here for a fun weekend. It was fantastic!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great old fashioned hotel. Steakhouse is good. Starbucks in the lobby is not as busy as you’d expect.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Very beautiful hotel with good service. Valet staff was very quick!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Very nice and clean. Would do again

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Best late nite welcome I’ve had in YEARS but the evening attendant! This hotel is a true hidden gem of a spot. Truly wonderful.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    This was a fabulous stay. The hotel is gorgeous, our room was so beautiful. We ate at the bar and steakhouse, both amazing. The staff is great. The only, small disappointment was the pool. It's gorgeous but cold. It was such a memorable stay!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Everything was great!, from check in through the entire stay. Lots of fun things to do and explore in the area, all within easy walking distance. In addition, an excellent steak restaurant and Starbucks are in house.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Facility beautiful and clean. Great location

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was a beautiful hotel, and the rooms were lovely, clean and huge!! We loved it.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    I arrived after a six hour drive over the mountains from N.C. and was promptly welcomed at the curb by Valet Service, youthful, energetic, accommodating, I was assisted to the lobby Front Desk where I was greeted by David, a model of professional courtesy and charm, the room 802, a corner room with three large windows, well appointed, generous bathroom beautifully renovated, Housekeeping offered punctual, courteous, hospitality, first night dinner in the Hotel's outstanding Restaurant was a special surprise, we were served by the 'resident spirit of the Read House Hotel,' "Barry" who whipped our table around at a banquet so that we might enjoy each other's intimate company, the food was delicious, my compliments to the Chef, the service incredible, no eatery in the same price point provided the value or quality as at the Read House, the place was packed, the next time we were there, so we were invited to sit at the bar where we were blessed with "Barry" who once again made us feel so very much at home and punctuated our evening with magnanimous service, again the food was extraordinary, I will take all meals here the next time, between the Valet's infectious good humor, David's welcoming presence, and "Barry's" overarching dynamism and brilliant talent brought our evening to life, '1920' is alive and well here. Loved everyone and everything! Need a designated florist, for a spectacular 'Flower on a Wire', Someone to deliver helium filled balloons, Restaurant referrals of the caliber of that in the Hotel, not referrals of the top of the head, but places vetted for quality and value at whatever price point, put trainees in the lounge who at least know better than to pour champagne from the air, very entertaining to be sure

    Location Work up at 12am with the whole room smelling like a sewage..
