My husband and I really looked forward to visiting the Read House and we were not disappointed! The hotel is beautiful, with huge crystal chandeliers, carved wooden columns and beautiful flowers welcoming guests upon arrival. The 1920s ambiance is found throughout the hotel, right down to the bartender and flapper girl server in the bar! The location was an easy 5-10 minute drive to tons of restaurants and sights, like the aquarium, which we very much enjoyed. I definitely would return should we visit Chattanooga again (and frankly, we're thinking about it!).
