Reviews for Chattanooga Choo Choo
A great adventure!
We’d heard about this hotel by reading up on local hotels and knew we wanted to try it so we gave it a go. Outstanding! We got one of the train cars and found it quiet, very comfortable, and clean. A good place to celebrate a special occasion. Thank you for making this a memorable experience. Of special note were two workers. One was Jenna who works in the restaurant Elsie’s daughter. She really welcomed us to things Chattanooga and guided us with the delicious menus. Take it from us every item was great and the cocktails even better. Another person was the receptionist, Molly, who did everything to make sure we were comfortable and had exactly what was needed. She also greeted us warmly and pointed out places not to miss. Both are keepers to their establishments.

Perfect
The Chalet is the place to stay while enjoying Chattanooga. The location is absolutely perfect - it is the heart of the Choo Choo district. The staff was helpful in every way, especially Dian who is an amazing concierge. She not only recommended excellent dining to fit our agenda, but even called a restaurant to explain that the Uber was running a few minutes behind. The rooms are spacious, and very clean.

Best hotel I've ever stayed in
From the atmosphere to the service - I had an amazing stay at The Hotel Chalet. The property is beautifully designed, with a perfect blend of historic charm and modern luxury. I stayed in one of the restored train carriages, which made the experience truly unique. The location is also a huge plus. It's within walking distance to everything in the Choo Choo Terminal complex, making it easy to explore restaurants, shops, and the surrounding area. Overall, it was a memorable stay and I’m already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend!

Great dining experience
We dined at Elsie’s daughter, the restaurant at the hotel. The atmosphere was laid back and fun, the architecture was cool/historic, the cocktail menu was creative, and the food was excellent. Our server Jody was very helpful and friendly without being overbearing. I highly recommend it!

The perfect little spot for a small snack and a great drink.
We had a wonderful experience. The oysters are top notch and the bacon wrapped dates are even better!! Chris made a perfect drink as well. Only good things to say! *** dates not pictured, they came second and I forgot . But absolutely delish!
