Often called “The Scenic City,” Chattanooga sits in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and right along the Tennessee River. The city has a rich history, having served as a Civil War battlefield and as the grand central station for southern railway travel in the 19th and 20th centuries. Today, Chattanooga (a name derived from a Creek Indian word meaning “rock coming to a point”) is a hub for education, entertainment and commerce—and is poised to overtake Knoxville as Tennessee’s third-largest city in the next few years.
Located downtown next to the Chattanooga Convention Center, which hosts more than 60 major events annually, the hotel is a short walk from the Downtown Riverfront Central Business District, as well as the Southside Historic District and its many dining options. Also, a short walk away is the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, which has a student population of more than 12,000, and Finley Stadium—home to the UT-Chattanooga Mocs and host to various community events, from concerts to professional soccer.
Chattanooga is also home to the Incline Railway up Lookout Mountain, the Hunter Museum of American Art and the Tennessee Aquarium. And at the end of the day, roll back to the hotel and relax in one of the queen studios, one-bedroom or two-bedroom suites—each with its own fully equipped kitchen. In the morning, start your day working up a sweat in the fitness center or taking a dip in the heated indoor pool. Then fuel up for the day with the complimentary breakfast buffet.
Business travelers will always stay on track thanks to the hotel’s central downtown location, as well as amenities including complimentary high-speed, wireless internet access and an on-site boardroom. A growing hub for education, medical and other corporate demand, Unum, BlueCross BlueShield and Covenant Logistics have all established a significant presence in Chattanooga. The city is also home to a three million sq. ft. assembly plant for Volkswagen.
