We really like this Hotel. And while we appreciate its proximity to Starbucks for morning coffee there is a lack of breakfast options. You either eat breakfast at Starbucks or go out, which in sub-30 degree weather isn’t a great option.

Read House Great Valentine's Day Get Away

The Read House was very clean, bed was very comfortable. I had a problem adjusting the heat but Mr Osborn was sent up and showed me what to do and remained until I knew what to do. I was surprised to see the quick, efficient friendly service, which is lacking in some hotels.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Read House Hotel in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making me feel right at home. The hotel itself is a beautiful blend of historic charm and modern amenities, with stunning architecture and elegant decor. The dining options were fantastic—whether enjoying a quick breakfast or a more relaxed dinner, every meal was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The rooms were impeccably clean, and I appreciated the attention to detail throughout the hotel. I felt safe and comfortable the entire time, which made for a very relaxing stay. Overall, The Read House is a gem in Chattanooga. It's a perfect mix of luxury, comfort, and Southern hospitality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Bed was comfy. Staff very friendly. Our son took a 5 min shower, not very hot. There was no hot or even warm water for my husband and I to shower. None. It was freezing cold. There’s absolutely no way our son drained the hot water tank.

Honestly, this is not just another “hotel stay”. The Read hotel felt more like an experience. A little trip back in time. We enjoyed it very much!
