The Hotel Chalet was a welcome surprise for our recent stay in Chattanooga. The pictures online made the property look promising and it did not disappoint upon check in. The bathroom amenities were especially nice with Waterworks fixtures, marble flooring, a generous soaking tub (bath salts provided) and hotel robes we enjoyed during our stay. Restaurants were within walking distance and overall the area was family friendly. Would definitely book again!

10/10

We spent a weekend at Hotel Chalet. The hotel is one of a kind, the most original hotel that I have been at in the US. It takes you back in time with its vintage interior design of a train. Next time we would like to book one of the train cars to get a better sleep because the weekend was very busy and the were people in and out of hotel throughout the night. However the hotel, the staff and service are excellent. The entire downtown Chattanooga is lovely and offers many great options to dine.
