Gorgeous old building, just a beautiful hotel! Slight upkeep needed in the rooms (a threadbare patch of carpet, small spots of chipped vaneer, hole in sheet), but overall lovely. Front desk staff were super friendly. We plan to stay there again next time we’re in Chattanooga!

Everything about the stay was fabulous except for the valet situation. It was an absolute nightmare to get parked and get checked in. We had to circle the block 5 times before being able to get out of the car and get checked in. The valet attendants were great, but something needs to be figured out about this issue.

The sound of water running through pipes for the entire stay was really unpleasant, there is also public parking across the street from the hotel, I did not know this until I heard valet sending another guest across the street, after I’d already been charged $80. I also called guest services, and waited three hours for a response. Service is not at the level you would expect from a nice hotel like this is striving to be.

No breakfast except Starbucks on weekdays. Nothing else to order from on site. With taxes, valet parking service wayyy tooo expensive. Room had a wooden bench at the foot of bed. Needs to be elsewhere as I broke a toe when I bumped into it in the middle of the night . Ruined our anniversary trip
