Only thing I would change is the shower. It was a little wonky, took a while to get hot water & the handles were a little strange. But there was a big garden tub. I just couldn't figure out how to get the water to run from the faucet & not the shower head, it ran from both. Other than that, the room was nice, had big windows with a beautiful view, the landscaping was so cute, and there was a Keurig in the hallway for guests to make a cup of complimentary coffee. I recommend for anyone visiting Chattanooga.

Your website tells viewers that your staff is exceptional and goes above and beyond to make the day…read moreflow. That was the exact opposite of what we witnessed on Saturday. We understand if weather messes up the expectation of a wedding, but what we will never understand is how unprepared the venue was when it came to backup power. Lookout valley is notorious for having power outages, and to tell a wedding party you have no action plan when the power goes out, no backup generator, and that it may be the NEXT DAY until power is returned is 100% avoidable and not to mention extremely unprofessional for an EVENT VENUE. We were told by the owner of the venue that the power outage was "an act of God". This statement was so unprofessional, as the power outage was 100% avoidable if you have a backup generator. The owner did not take any responsibility for their lack of action plan for this scenario. Also, it did not even storm at the venue. If it weren't for my father leaving and going to buy a generator to be able to have our reception, it wouldn't have happened. Your staff was hiding from me and my wedding party - at one point we found the main venue staff woman crying in a closet to escape us...how rude to treat us that way. We also paid you to rent all 5 villa rooms. When we were told the power could be out until tomorrow, your staff did not offer any assistance for those of us staying in the villa. Thank god the power returned around 8:30pm that evening or else we would've had to rent a hotel. The venue villa rooms also did not have any hot water so all of our showers were cold all weekend. The staff was of absolutely no help when shit hit the fan, and I am just in shock at what I saw. At one point, we were going to have to move the reception inside not due to rain, but due to not having lighting outside, and your staff told me they "wouldn't charge me a flip fee" for it. I could not believe they were acting like they were doing me a favor by not charging me a flip fee. If I am being honest, we should've gotten a partial refund. We almost didn't have dinner due to no power in the kitchen. My amazing caterer drove back to her kitchen to cook our food and return. THAT is the type of above and beyond service I expected from our vendors. DO NOT BOOK VENUE.

Very clean, well organized facility. There were 4 large restrooms for guests. Lots of nice tables and chairs with linens available. The owner wasn't around much, but seemed nice and accommodating when he was. The Cons: The venue manager seemed grumpy, never smiled, and was quick to say no to every request. She just seemed unhappy to be there. When asked if the flower girl could throw bird seed, she wouldn't allow it because "the next wedding party wouldn't appreciate having bird seed on the ground for their wedding." There were flower petals on the ground from a previous event that we didn't request, but no one considered that for our wedding. She must have been required to stay there the whole time, much of which was spent on her phone. There were a couple of times we had to wait quite a while to ask her a question. Certainly we understood every request may not be able to be met, but there are ways of telling people no that don't have to be rude or unfriendly. It seemed their venue manager may need more training in how to work with people, especially people who are there to enjoy a special life event and have chosen your venue to do so. She definitely needs to learn to smile when greeting people. That would go a long way. We asked to set up two hours earlier than normal and were charged $300 for the privilege, which we paid, but thought that was a steep price. The paid bartenders refused to serve non alcoholic drinks i.e. sodas, water unless it was in a mixed drink. When it was suggested to the manager that putting a tip jar out was inappropriate because we didn't want our guest to feel the need to pay for anything and just be able to enjoy the evening, she just shrugged her shoulders. The tip jar remained. Last call for the bar was made one hour before closing when it was supposed to be 30 minutes prior. Another concern was that we were told if anyone drove and felt they needed to uber home due to overindulging in alcohol, they wouldn't be allowed to leave a car there overnight. I really raised an eyebrow to this one. Being forced to drive when you needed to call for an uber is a lawsuit waiting to happen. So to sum it up, fabulous venue, with a manager in need of some people skills.

My family and I would guess who you're so I do not know pricing, although some other places that is as much as 4,000. It was transparent and on the website for reference. The owner, Miss Terri, was PHENOMENAL. She provided incrediable custom care and made sure my son and daughter had what they wanted. You are not allowed alcohol unless a licensed bartender is paid for in on-site. Apparently, some people did not know the rules and brought their own. This was threatened with possible dismissal of the venue if it was not controlled. That part of it sucked but is understandable for insurance reasons. The only other thing was once the ladies had finished dressing in the house, they had a tiny window of 15 minutes to get all her clothing, makeup, accessories, and clothes out of there where they would be lost. It was very sudden and in the middle of the wedding party. Overall the experience was incredible. A beautiful barn and venue with a company farm animals on the other side of the fence and a lovely owner that was very accommodating and happy to listen and help us.

5 stars all around…read more We came at 5pm on a Sunday (it wasn't packed at all) with our pups. The valet/greeter helped us get a server and we were met at the back patio and immediately seated. The patio is awesome because it has fake grass and the pups loved it. We initially came for a cocktail because I've been wanting to try out this new space that they created in place of the restaurant that used to be here. However, once he saw the new menu and how very reasonably priced the items were, we had to try it out. I ordered the barefoot in the grass cocktail. It was quite tasty and refreshing. Not too much flavor even though the ingredients make it sound like you'd get a bitter chocolate sweet taste. I loved all of the cocktails on the menu and will have to come back to try others. We decided to order the duck egg rolls - and they were Egg-cellent - The food was served at a great temperature and although it was a little tough to eat in egg roll form (duck doesn't always break apart like chicken or pork) it was amazing. I loved the special sauce it came with. It is hard to comment on the service because we were one of about 10 customers in the entire area, but we felt like we were at home and never had to worry about water for ourselves or for our dogs. Just some facts that you need to know, this café was built in place of the restaurant, and all of the spaces in the Dwell hotel now have the same menu - they serve breakfast lunch and dinner items all day! See new photos of the menus! I feel like I will be visiting this place a few times because I was able to get a great appetizer and drink for $20 - but hopefully this review is helpful! :)

The service was excellent, and the food was a-okay (but not the highlight). My mom and I wanted to get dinner before services at the synagogue and a show at Memorial Auditorium, and we wanted to try some place new! My mom is vegan, but Solarium's menu looked modern and like a few things could be changed to be vegan if not vegan already. I sent them a Facebook message, and they confirmed - easy peasy to make some items vegan. We parked on the street outside the Dwell Hotel (where Solarium is located), and there was free parking for one hour - all we needed. When we walked inside, I was immediately struck by the decor. Both the bar to the left (Matilda Midnight) and Solarium to the right of the lobby are beautiful. We were eating really early and were told we could pick any table. One waiter arrived. We immediately told him that my mom was vegan and asked which dishes could be veganized. He said the salads. That didn't sound right to me given what I had been told on Facebook Messenger, and our waiter disappeared. A waitress showed up (she had taken over our table, I guess), and I asked again what could be made vegan. She gave us a list of dishes - not just salads - that could be made vegan. I ordered a glass of Malbec and then we ordered four dishes (all veganized) to try. We ordered the Veggie Primavera (zucchini ribbons, tomato, capers, oregano, and pinenuts - they took out the dairy that is usually in the dish); crusted cauliflower (shiitake dust, orzotto, sundried tomatoes, and peas - they took out the dairy that is usually in the dish); Mediterranean flatbread (hummus, olives, diced tomatoes, and feta on the side); and the cashew kale dip (crudites, root veggie chips, and lavash). They were all pretty good without being anything to write home about, but nothing was bad. I hesitate to complain about food that we requested modifications on, as it's hard to say whether a dish is well conceived or well cooked if you have them modify from how they typically serve it. But I will say that there wasn't anything I didn't like, and it was better than a lot of vegan options I've had. I would definitely go back to Solarium for appetizers and drinks before a show. It's a beautiful place to hang out and enjoy a nice glass of wine or one of their beautiful, interesting-sounding cocktails. I'd like to go again - and I want to try out the bar (Matilda Midnight) as well. Very enjoyable time here!

I enjoy coming here for some shows, but not others. I've seen Come From Away, Jesus Christ…read moreSuperstar, and a couple of musical acts here. My most recent outing was Come From Away and luckily the 3 rows in front of me ended up being empty, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see anything. I'm short, and without stadium type seating, I usually have a hard time seeing, thus I usually choose to sit in the balcony/mezzanine. Unfortunately, at this auditorium I can't do that because it's so far from the stage, you can't see anything. During Come From Away I also had a hard time hearing the show, though I'm not sure if that was a production issue, or a speaker issue. I haven't had that issue with other shows. Personally, I think the auditorium is just not well suited for Broadway shows though I understand the Tivoli is undergoing renovations. Music acts are somewhat different because you aren't really going there to watch them so much as listen. Parking is a big issue because there are not nearly enough parking lots adjacent to the building to accommodate the audience size and there are no designated walking areas on the left side of the building so you have to be very careful of traffic if coming from a back lot. Overall it's not a bad venue, but I'll be glad when the Tivoli is back up and running for Broadway shows.
