The price to rent the venue was more than fair and even the policeman provided for the event was extremely nice. We would choose the Waterhouse Pavilion a million times over!

Ever hear of the Chattanooga Choo Choo song? It was popularized back around 1940 by Glen Miller…read moreand his Orchestra. When we were in Chattanooga, I Just had to make a quick detour to see the Chattanooga Choo Choo. It did not disappoint. The Chattanooga Choo Choo train looks very cool!! It is more than just a train though. The Chattanooga Choo Choo refers to the former train station itself. It is now a hotel and entertainment complex filled with shops and restaurants. The steam locomotive in the middle of the grounds was the highlight in my opinion. Unfortunately folks are not allowed to go on the locomotive. That's okay. I just admired it from afar. Check out the Chattanooga Choo Choo while you are in this fine city. It is definitely worth a visit. Don't forget to listen to the wonderful song too!!

I'm Nashville born and raised - grew up coming here with family and after 10 years I came back to…read moresee how the Choo Choo has held up and it's heartbreaking. It's become an abandoned, urban tourist trap. Someone has turned old train cars into air bnbs and thrown a pool in the middle of the attraction - it's smart, but sad. The cars are not taken care of, rusted paint and broken parts, most likely to keep the "aesthetic" but whoever runs it should do basic upkeep...whoever owns the property for the choo choo itself is doing a horrible job caring for what used to be an amazing tourist spot and local attraction. There is a fountain in the middle of the property next to the train and about 40 fish in it not being fed and the plants in the pond are dying, the statues in the pond have cracked and fallen over. Ontop of that, the shops in the area have lost the old-timely aesthetic and glow that comes with the train. It's turned into things like an escape room and urban murals with tacky pizza places. I wish I got the name of the store but there is only one left that truly contains the old timey vibe and sells literal toys and souvenirs that are themed to the attraction. So disappointing to see the iconic attraction be let go and unkept like this after growing up here and seeing it in its prime only 10-15 years ago. Do better!

The soundtrack was also an unexpected mix of religious Christmas and opera music that overpowered the room. Much too loud. That said, the food itself delivered. Portions were generous, plating was thoughtful, and the mushroom gnocchi--subbed in for the ravioli that night--was flavorful, well executed, and satisfyingly hearty. The menu could use another substantial vegetarian dish with protein, but overall the meal was enjoyable and worthy of a return visit. Half off wine bottles Wednesday was an unexpected bonus!

From check in to the request for late check out (highly suggest becoming an IHG member) to actually checking out, everything and everyone about this hotel was truly amazing. We were greeted warmly with 2 vouchers for a complimentary glass of wine at the bar. The room was stylish and modern. I appreciated that the AC unit was hidden in a cabinet with openings, I don't see that often. What really did it for me is that the bathroom not only came with the usual hair dryer but also a plug in vanity mirror that I was able to take into the room so I could free up the bathroom for my husband. Bed, pillows and comforter were top notch, no complaints, my husband even wanted to take a pillow home. we didn't!! At check out, Donovan was so accommodating that he made a cup of coffee for my husband because we missed the coffee bar and breakfast. I will 100% stay here again while visiting Chattanooga.

Their menu includes juices, drip coffee, chai tea, soda, sandwiches, salads, and homemade hot cocoa. We both ordered the hot cocoa, the white chocolate hot cocoa for me. They make each drink order, one at a time, on the counter. And it is the perfect balance of creamy, sweet, chocolate deliciousness with whipped cream on top! My friend was quite happy with his plain hot cocoa too. We felt cozy drinkin our hot cocoa on the velvet couch. This was the right stop for this dreary day.

Your mother brought you up to be better than that. She taught you how to be alert. She was right. She was talking about rare finds like Stratton Hall. I attended a corporate meeting last week at "The Strat". The group totaled about 70 or so. We needed a stage, tables and space for eating, mingling and group photos. The Stratton Hall Venue has all of that. It's not much to look at outside, but stay focused until you get on inside. There is a single large space with a nice looking laminate floor and blacked out ceiling. The lighting is ample and not glaring at you from above like some predator in flight. The other two rooms are complimentary to the larger but with their own ambiance. The second is a third of the size of the larger space with elegant drapery and stylish in appointments. Right next to it is a room almost equal in size that is referred to as the Chapel. It's more versatile than that. It is a totally white space with chandeliers and accompaniments that make it appear to be more of a dreamscape. The comfort rooms are decorated nicely and there is a lounge that is elegant. Of particular note are the concierge services supplied by the customer service representative. She is attentive and ready to respond to pressing issues. So you should consider Stratton Hall for your event. You'll be glad that you did.
