    the rooms are excellent and very clean the only draw back is the lighting is terrible! Its hard to see to get ready for an evening out. We made reservations at Bridgeman's (it's what I asked from my husband for my 60th bday) We live in Dallas so this is where he took me... the food was over an hour before ANYTHING got to us, the ticket order supposedly was lost, nobody ever said a thing until they brought a "complimentary shrimp cocktail. Then took about 20 more minutes to get our appetizer - I canceled mu salad because by this time we were just ready for the main course, which was FABULOUS, but VERY disappointed in the meal experience within itself. Most likely will not be back next visit to Chattanooga

    House keeping and other staff were efficient, food at Bridgeman was wonderful, bar service and drinks at the lobby bar were great. Downside was that the lack of some amenities with the “lesser rooms” furnished through Expedia and probably other third party vendors are not worth the price difference to me.

    We enjoyed our stay at Read House. We upgraded at registration for the suite in the older part of the hotel. The decor was very nice and amenities were serviceable. The elevator on that side is pretty slow. In fact, I believe only one was working during our visit. We used valet the whole time, and they were very quick and professional. We dined in the Chop House one evening and enjoyed that meal. It was small and busy, so reservations are a must. We also enjoyed the bar in the lobby. Everyone was very friendly and helpful during our stay. There was no restaurant for breakfast, but the room service was reasonable, it was delivered on time, and the food was hot and good. I recommend a stay here, and the location is central to a lot of things to do and see in downtown Chattanooga.

    I absolutely loved my stay at The Read House and was completely charmed by its incredible historic character and elegant, Roaring Twenties atmosphere. While the rooms were simple, they were beautifully appointed, clean, and perfectly comfortable for a relaxing stay. It’s a wonderful boutique find for anyone looking to blend timeless style with a true sense of place. I'll be back to stay in 311 ;)

    Location was okay. It was only okay because there isn't really much around the area. Some restaurants and bars but not really a downtown area to speak of. I liked the general look and history of the hotel which appeared to be a real selling point to the domestic tourists we spook to. The hotel internal pool was quite nice. The valet is efficient and quick and quite helpful. We were told that we could reverse into the meter bay and only pay from 8am if we wanted to, guy was helpful when certainly didn't need to be. As I didn't want to go down and feed the meter myself I didn't park on the street. Upsold a room and told the room we'd booked is very small. I really didn't appreciate the busy checkin upsell, peer pressure with people less than a foot away hearing me dedide if I wanted a really "small room" or updrade to a "insert fanfare" as he waved his arms to show it was a great deal. He even said he as was told to use his arms to emphasise it. What a crock. Hotel restaurant was very expensive also so we avoided it and went elsewhere. I will say that the ambience of the restaurant certainly appeated top tier. No tea/coffee in the public area provided other than the small amount in the room or the upsell of the attached Starbucks. We enquired about the tour of the hotel that another guest told us about. We were told it was full that day but apparently not full it we had "cash". Yes, if we gave a tip we could join the tour. The bathroom "door", there is a surge of hotels putting on pocket or barn doors. If you like them and are comfortable with the sounds your travelling partner makes then so be it but a door that doesn't fully close and can be seen through at the sides isn't an attractive feature,

    We only stayed one night but the staff was so friendly and helpful and the lobby was absolutely stunning. Having a coffee shop in the lobby was also a bonus. We enjoyed a ghost tour of Annalisa Netherly's room and that was so interesting. Fortunately, she didn't haunt our room afterwards :) I used the fitness center and my daughter used the pool and we cannot wait to return as she will be attending UTC starting this fall. Nothing!

    My stay at The Read House was outstanding from start to finish. The hotel beautifully blends historic charm with modern comfort, and the staff made every part of the experience welcoming and enjoyable. The rooms were comfortable, the public spaces were stunning, and the location made it easy to explore downtown Chattanooga. One of the highlights was taking the haunted room tour. Even if you’re not a believer in ghost stories, the history behind the hotel is fascinating and adds a unique dimension to the experience. It was both entertaining and memorable. I highly recommend The Read House to anyone visiting Chattanooga. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, great hospitality, or a little mystery, this hotel delivers a truly special stay.

We signed up and did the tour with John he did a wonderful job. We went to Bar and Billiards for snacks and drinks and played pool it was very nice great ,staff. I will definitely be going back for a longer stay!

The premiere king room we stayed in was beautifully decorated, tastefully preserving both the character of the old hotel and offering modern upgrades. The bed was soft and comfortable and the towels were plush. Room had a nice city view, was quiet and very clean. The hotel itself is lovely and we took some time wandering around the main floor looking at photos and some very interesting memorabilia from bygone days. All in all, a brief but memorable stay. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others or stay there again.

    This hotel is very nice, has a bit of elegance to it without the high price tag. Upon arrival we valleyed our vehicle, staff was pleasant and our room was nice. To have your vehicle valleyed its $30 per night which was not mentioned to me but since ok since i didn't have to park my car. There is no place for breakfast in the hotel so you will have to find a place for breakfast. There is a bar lounge which is nice. Beds were comfortable and overall pleasant experience. I would stay here again if i am ever back in Chattanooga.

    One night we brought back some dessert and wanted a cup of coffee from the downstairs bar to go with it. The bartender said it was a “health code violation” to have it in the bar.

    The next morning, room service delivered to the room next to us at 7:00 am and annouced they were at the door loudly waking us up. They then let the door slam shut when entering the room and leaving. My husband left with what appears to be flea bites - they allow dogs in this hotel. When he notified the front desk they just said "ok" they did not ask what room we were in or say that they would notify the manager.

    At checkout, we mentioned the incident again to a different staff member, and she didn't react or apologize either, which lead us to believe that this was not an isolated incident and that the hotel staff is aware of the issue. For a hotel in this price range, we expect at least a basic acknowledgment of the situation and some reassurance that it would be addressed. This experience really affected our impression of the hotel.

They lent us an umbrella for the day when it was raining. The bar was hopping every night. There is a pool table room in the back with 2 tables. A nice space to hang out. We would definitely stay again!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It is a beautiful historical hotel. Pleasantly surprised how gorgeous it was and reasonably priced. The hotel has so much history and beautiful chandeliers, Wood work, fun old telephone booths. We were able to get a look at the silver banquet room. It is breathtaking. Our hotel room was very clean, very comfortable bed and quiet to sleep. We enjoyed a glass of free champagne in the bar . We thoroughly enjoyed the waitress and the staff. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Our room was right next to the ice machine and the elevator so we did not sleep all night from the noise of it.Staff were not friendly.I have a problem hearing on the phone so I wanted room service and I went down stairs to the reception to ask if they could order it for me ,they told me to go to the bar. I went into the bar there was a wedding going on stood for 30 minutes and nothing so I had to ask a guest getting out of the elevator to do it for me.On my phone in my room.I find the more you pay for a hotel the less service you get.Will not be back.

    I had a great experience at the Read Hotel. What stood out to me the most was getting to tour Room 311—it was such a unique part of the visit, especially knowing it’s known for being haunted! It definitely added a fun and interesting twist to the experience. The staff was incredibly helpful, welcoming, and genuinely kind throughout the entire visit. They made everything easy and enjoyable from start to finish. I would definitely recommend checking it out, whether you’re curious about the history or just looking for a great place with amazing service!

    A handful of staffers were very hospitable, but when IT assistance was needed in the pre-paid for Billiards room, upper management intervened & wanted to charge extra for their assistance. Also, everyone in our group was disappointed that there was no complimentary breakfast as originally offered and each guest was charged 10.00 per day plus tax for amenities we didn’t use and all thought the 30.00 per day charge for valet only parking was excessive.

A window with no view, bad furniture and poor lighting made it a difficult stay. We asked for a famed tour of the hotel and room 311 and our guide was a huge disappointment. He was just reading the signs as if we could not read the same. There is no breakfast service in the hotel.

    I was here for four nights for a conference with another attendee, and we enjoyed our stay. We wish that parking was included, paying even more on top of the conference cost and the high hotel bill was a bit much. We also never had our towels updated even though we had spoke to a cleaner in the hallway for more towels. We did not have the privacy button selected so I’m not sure why we never received fresh towels.

    The common areas were inviting with nice private nooks. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the bathroom was clean and modern but the shower design did get the floor wet easily. The bed was comfortable, but there were no extra linens for the pull out. When we called, they only brought a sheet and couldn’t find a blanket. The pool was clean and nice, but not heated (personal preference) and the waterfall made it pretty loud. Overall, I’d stay again!

    Additionally, shortly after I arrived in my room, someone entered without knocking. I reported this to the front desk, but nothing was done. It made me very uncomfortable, as I could have been changing or undressed at the time. I was also approached in the lobby by someone who appeared to be homeless and asked me to buy them coffee. I was surprised they were able to access the lobby, as it made the environment feel less secure. Overall, these situations made my stay less comfortable than expected. David at the front desk was incredible had alot of knowledge about the area and was very friendly!

    Great room and friendly staff. You need to up your game if you are after business travelers. Two observations. One - Zero food available after 10pm is a problem for late arrivals or those working and losing track of the time. Even a bar menu would be an improvement from the current situation. Two - No desks/work lighting in room makes it almost impossible to prep for business the next day. The small round table and dining room chair were short of the mark. I ended up working at a game table in the lobby. Otherwise, no complaints. Love the character of the place and, again, staff were very nice.

    Absolutely beautiful hotel. Loved exploring and seeing the architecture. Historic property was very well maintained. Staff was friendly and cocktails at the Billiard Room lobby bar were well-made with a nice selection. I would have appreciated a few more small touches that I have received at other comparible hotels -- nice robes to wear in the room, snacks & mini bar in room were not present, Chromecast was not functional. However, the area surrounding the hotel is very scenic with many restaurants and local spots to explore. Overall, a good experience.

    The Read House is more then a place to lay your head after a day of exploring Chattanooga, it is an experience. We have stayed here multiple times in the historic portion of the hotel and each time had a wonderful stay. The staff is friendly. The lobby and public areas are beautifully decorated, transporting you to a different era. Centrally located it is walkable to all the attractions in the city yet not to close so you can get some quite time when you return to your spotlessly clean room and ultra comfortable bed. I cannot say enough good things about this historic hotel. You will not be disappointed if you choose this as your destination stay.

    The hotel was beautiful! Staff was kind and accommodating. The only reason I am giving 4 stars and not five is for the bathroom. The hotel is under renovation in certain parts. We stayed in the manor section. The room was very nice. I did not notice a musty smell or feel a dampness as some others describe. The bathroom was small and in need of an update. You could tell the shower walls and bathtub had been resurfaced many times. If the bathroom had been updated, it would have been 5 stars. Over all a very pleasant stay and I would gladly stay here again. Very convenient to many things down town.

    The bathroom was completely unfinished. Shower stall did not have tile completed on floor. Mold around the bottom o shower stall. Wood holding sink not painted. Floor flooded when taking shower because shower curtain had not been placed & was a foot off floor. Causing possible danger of slipping!!! We went down to English Pub for a relaxing glass of wine. And due to a convention of loud noisy men drinking, my wife had men’s butts in her face & they were very rude! We understand hotels have to make money when they can, but they have to respect other guests also. The people they were very nice at the hotel so we did not make a scene. But it was not the experience we expected!

    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.

    It is a beautiful hotel. The front desk was knowledgeable and kind. Our room was a let down though. It was really damp. The floor felt damp, there was visible condensation on the inside of the windows. The bathroom was very small but thats easily overlooked knowing its a historic hotel. The bathtub however looked like the enamel or paint was peeling badly. I would not let my son take a bath in that. We toughed it out because we spent most of our time out of the room amd didn't want the hassle of requesting a room change. If possible I recommend not staying in the manor house area.

    Hotel conditions absolutely not in accordance with the price that is charged. I intend never to stay again. A great disappointment. One of the worst ROI for a hotel I have stayed in my travels around the world.

    The hotel is lovely and the service has been great so far. The staff are friendly and courteous. The hotel is clean and in a great location. We’ve used the valet parking and would highly recommend using it. Worth the cost because you have to pay for parking no matter where you park.

    I booked a room at The Read House and they gave us a room at the Manor "at the Read House" which is connected at the Read House lobby. It was terrible. I paid a premium at price for The Read House and got a third class hotel. The staffs response was essentially the Read House is fully booked and too bad for you.

    Quick one-night stay in this remarkable building from the old era with modern amenities and an outstanding restaurant. The pool was closed, unfortunately, although the Garden Terrace area was enjoyable. The lobby of this hotel is so inviting and comfortable. The rooms were updated and very large with more than enough space. In fact, the bathroom was massive.

The surrounding area has lots to offer and walkable. All staff were so attentive. Enjoyed the history. Already planning a trip to return and have family join. Thank you.

    Hotel lobby was very extravagant but our room was outdated. They had done wallpaper and little furnishings to make it seem less out of date. Bath tub was dingy, lots of needed paint to cover scuffs etc. our first night we got the shampoo and it looked like half of it had been used already so we threw it away. Staff very nice and the valet guys go above and beyond. Kids loved the pool but it didn’t seem heated at all. Starbucks was a plus! But the steakhouse is definitely not kid friendly, more of a date night spot.

    We had an okay check-in experience. We used the valet for our vehicle (more to come on that) They’d charged the full stay on a card they didn’t confirm. Reservation said full stay would be charged at check-in, it was charged before we ever arrived. That has to be refunded and fixed. So, word of advice, only reserve with the card you wish to pay for the entire stay with or you may be put in a bind. The room was good. It’s cute. Smelled a little musty/old when we walked in. Didn’t pay much attention to that since it is an old building. Once the air was going, that got better. We had dinner reservations downstairs @ Bridgestone Chophouse. That was an amazing experience. Start to finish. Got Starbucks downstairs the next morning. Super convenient. You don’t even have to step outside. Highly recommend both. We left just before the 11am check-out time. You text them that you are out of the room & leave your keys inside your room. Super easy. We get our vehicle from valet. As soon as I sat in the driver seat I knew something was off. Tons of papers and stuff in the passenger floor board. We never left it like that. I start looking around & can tell things were moved. The console was completely ransacked, along with the glove box. The back of the SUV was completely flipped upside down where everything had been gone through. The valet guy has been brought over at this point & immediately tells my boyfriend “yeah we’ve been having some issues lately” Nobody said a word. Avoid valet!!!!

    For the ratings on Expedia I guess i over expected. The shower had mold around the edges of the tub. The shower drain wouldn’t drain we had to talk to the engineers to unstop at night. The power of the side table on my side did not have power and the dresser that the TV was in was in some disrepair. The staff told me they were planning to remodel that rooom. There were others available. Why not put us in one of those.
