Pros:

מלון יוצא דופן ומרשים, המשלב היסטוריה, אדריכלות קלאסית ואווירה אלגנטית. הלובי מפואר, החדרים נעימים ומטופחים, השירות אדיב והמיקום מצוין בלב מרכז העיר. נהנינו במיוחד מהעיצוב המיוחד ומהאווירה ההיסטורית שמורגשת בכל פינה. מלון מומלץ מאוד למי שמבקר בצ'טנוגה!

toller Stop in Chatanooga mit großem Flair .
Pros:

Freundlichkeit des Empfangs und Barpersonals. Wir bekamen ein Upgrade und je ein Glas Sekt zum Empfang . Tolle Zimmerausstattung mit Kaffeemaschine , Wasser und Tee.

Cons:

nicht - aber es könnte der Poolbereich etwas liebevoller ( einladender ) gestaltet sein . Auch eine Sauna in diesem Bereich wäre von Vorteil

A cold room soured our experience. Very disappointing response from the hotel to our situation.
Pros:

Nice location. Good ambiance.

Cons:

The room temperature was 55 deg F when we entered the room. We tried to adjust the AC, but it did not respond. I tried to phone reception, but the phone in the room did not work. I went downstairs to reception. No apology from reception staff. They said an enginner would take a look at the AC. Short story, the hotel boiler was only going to be turned on the next day. The engineer was very pleasant and turned off the AC in our room for the night and also apologised for the situation. He later delivered a blow heater to the room. There were no additional blankets in our room to help the situation. A very unpleasant situation in what felt like a decent hotel. Very disappointing.

Highlight of our trip
Pros:

We loved everything about our stay at The Read House! The staff were lovely, our room was spotless and the location was fantastic. The hotel has such a great atmosphere, with lots of friendly interactions with other guests. We really enjoyed the pool, rooftop garden, fall cocktails and even a game of chess in the reading area. And the whole place smells amazing – I ended up buying one of their candles to bring home! Such a lovely place to stay. Can't wait to come back!
