Great room, we had a suite and it provided more space and kitchenette. I would highly recommend it. The breakfast was a great start. My 9 year spent 2 hours in the pool - it was a very open/clean/did not smell like a pool setting for me to read and relax. Would certainly stay again. Close to everything. « less

We booked a king suite for the same price of the regular room, SCORE! We both fell in love with the Holiday Inn Express. The suite was perfect for a quick couples get away. Super close to lookout mountain. Close to downtown. Very safe and modern decor & environment. The room was so cozy you wanted to stay & enjoy the hotel. Friendly staff, great complimentary breakfast buffet. and helpful desk staff. If we return to Chattanooga, we will check for hotel deals here first!!! « less

Stayed at this hotel for one night only but it was a pleasant stay. The room was nice and clean, so was the bathroom with complimentary amenities. It only takes a few minutes by car to the downtown area and restaurants. Check-in was quick and the staff was very nice and professional. The only thing I didn´t like was the loud AC ... woke me up once or twice during the night. « less

This hotel is a good value compared to the others located downtown, in the historic center Chattanooga. This hotel seems to have been renovated. It is very comfortable and clean, The only downside was the noisy AC. The staff is extremely courteous. Breakfast is very good. Parking lot big. If you are a walker, you might walk to downtown (7 blocks). The city has a pretty cool shuttle system circulating around the Downtown area. It is free and ELECTRIC!!! I was surprised to see how lively Chattanooga is. Neat City, neat projects. Every city in the USA should have an electric shuttle going around downtown. You can walk like 2 block from the Holiday Inn to get this shuttle. Chattanooga also has a neat bike rental system. Way to go Government and people of Chattanooga! Congratulations. « less
