Thompson house. Bluff Inn
Wonderful place. Lots of room. Easy to park. Cool enough to use the fireplaces. Easy walk to many places. Only downside was being here in the fall, they were blowing leaves before 7:00 a.m. Innkeeper was awesome!

Not really a bed and breakfast to our standard. Check in very impersonal-more like a hotel. No on site interaction or help. Breakfast was offsite at a small coffee shop. Extremely cold and impersonal overall. Room was nice but bathroom needed some updating. Overall disappointing for price and expectations for a B&B.

situated on the chattanooga river walk on a small bluff overlooking the tennessee river - it’s great to take stroll across the nearby pedestrian bridge to the north shore. the b&b is in one of several victorian (?) buildings which form the bluff view arts district comprising bakery coffee shop italian restaurant and art gallery. plenty of parking - really nice vibe just strolling in the area. very friendly and informative check in from georgia - the name of the lady! altogether a great stay. love chattanooga btw

The lodging was a classy and well maintained historic property. The staff was very responsive and friendly and knowledgeable. The included breakfast at their Rembrandt Café felt mass produced and the sausage and egg sandwich had a huge slab of spongy egg and flavorless meat. Had dinner at their Italian restaurant Tony’s which had the ambience of a college cafeteria with beat up wooden chairs and tables and there was a small pile of food and napkins on the floor next to our table from a previous patron that had not been noticed or cleaned up which I had to step over. The spaghetti and sausage I had tasted like the same sausage in the breakfast sausage sandwich which is to say nondescript. My wife’s fra diavolo had a total of 6 small shrimp. Thumbs up for a quaint and romantic inn with a nice art gallery on their “campus” and great scenic setting on a high bluff (hence the name) overlooking the wide Tennessee River. Thumbs down on the food. The free included coffee was decent.

It’s a beautiful renevated old home. It’s in a great part of town, close to pedestrian bridge over to North Shore. It’s nice that you can walk to restaurants and a nice park by the river. We enjoyed some delicious ice cream by the river.. We loved it and would highly recommend.

The Bluff View Inn is an amazing place to stay! Beautiful rooms with antiques. Kelly was amazing! She is friendly and gave us wonderful recommendations for dinner and for where to go for antiquing! The free breakfast in the morning is hearty and delicious. The Italian restaurant, Tony's, has great food. I can not say enough great things about this location. We will definitely be staying here again and recommending it to all of our friends.

Great stay…no Bluffing!
We HIGHLY recommend the Bluff View Inn!! The property is basically a whole block with 3 inns and several eateries. We were able to get reservations at Tony’s Pasta and walk right in. This is in the Art District, so there are plenty of sculptures to view and being right by the river is great as well. There is a bike rental station on the block, so we parked our car and rode bikes anywhere we wanted to go the whole weekend. We stayed in the Maclellan Room of the Thompson House which is right next to 2 of the restaurants. At first we thought it was going to be noisy but we hardly heard anything from outside. We love Chattanooga and now the Bluff View property is just one more reason why!
