I was here for four nights for a conference with another attendee, and we enjoyed our stay. We wish that parking was included, paying even more on top of the conference cost and the high hotel bill was a bit much. We also never had our towels updated even though we had spoke to a cleaner in the hallway for more towels. We did not have the privacy button selected so I’m not sure why we never received fresh towels.

Best staff, culture and restaurant (by far) in Chattanooga. Stay at the others but live at the Read House! You may even find their ghost is better to hang out with than most people ,lol. Take the tour of 313 and get the history of the rest (Al Capone) during the best 30 min of education you can spend. If you can’t sleep, get up and walk around, the night shift security is some of the best folks you will ever meet. 6 stars!

My stay at The Read House was overall okay, but there were several issues that made it uncomfortable. There were many ladybugs in my room near the window. They did spray after I reported it, but the ladybugs were still present, and no one followed up with me after my initial complaint. Additionally, shortly after I arrived in my room, someone entered without knocking. I reported this to the front desk, but nothing was done. It made me very uncomfortable, as I could have been changing or undressed at the time. I was also approached in the lobby by someone who appeared to be homeless and asked me to buy them coffee. I was surprised they were able to access the lobby, as it made the environment feel less secure. Overall, these situations made my stay less comfortable than expected. David at the front desk was incredible had alot of knowledge about the area and was very friendly!
