Top Tennessee Aquarium IMAX Theater Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bo, a Days Inn by Wyndham Chattanooga Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, nice staff, easy on-site parking. Either walking distance or short ride share to anywhere downtown"

The Read House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff was very friendly. They did ask if this was my first stay there, it was. No one bothered to tell us that we had to scan our room card in the elevator to be able to go up, we thought the elevator was broken. As we were getting out, another guest had to be the one to tell us. Also, the doors to the bathroom needed to be fixed and no fan in the bathroom sucked. We tried the coffee the next morning and it was so weak we had to pour it out. Definitely recommend different coffee pods. The shower head sucked, not adjustable. But other than that, it was a nice stay"

Holiday Inn & Suites Chattanooga Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, while no self parking at the hotel, the valet parkers and parking were worth the added expense."

"It was everything you should want and need for a hotel stay"

Residence Inn by Marriott Chattanooga Downtown

8/10 Good

"Very happy with our stay - The service was great and the food was fabulous. It's a great location and we would recommend it to friends. But, the property badly needs a remodel and an update. The electrical sockets were old and dodgy and the furniture is worn out. Residence Inn is a great choice and we will always choose it. It's time for a update and a remodel!"
