Use to stay here many times years ago but the hotel has let it self go in my opinion. An average premier inn is better than this and half the price. Overall, would I stay again? No, probably not. Went down to breakfast and looked like armageddon was in progress so promptly abandoned breakfast, unable to comment further on that. Both were replaced when highlighted without issue. Dinner was ok, again cleanliness issues with cutlery and the glass my drink was served in. They claim to have wi-fi, I could barely get 1 bar of signal and load google (at far end of hotel), I ended up tethering off my phone to write this review. Iron was tethered to the ironing board, meaning it was incredibly difficult to put water in it and then to iron clothes whilst keeping both the power cable and the tether out of the way. The rooms cleanliness wasn't great, there is a lot of dirt in hard-to-reach places in the bathroom, dust on all surfaces. The person in front of me at checkin was complaining about his AC too. Air conditioning appears to be broken/turned off, ended up with the window open all night. 2 of the light bulbs don't work so sat in half-darkness during my 1 night stay.

All the wooden surfaces have warped from liquid on them. Rooms are somewhat dated and in need of refurbishment. 'It will be a bumpy road this fall and winter until it's spring again,' he said.Long queue to check in, once at desk person checking in was friendly and helpful. Also, business travel, which has taken a hit amid the pandemic, isn't picking up, Patel said. Patel said the hotel business was 'surprisingly good' this summer as many people believed the coronavirus pandemic was over or waning.Д«ut, he said, the surge in cases brought by the Delta variant has created a lot of cancellations as people become a little more fearful of travel. This summer, Vision and Chattanooga shopping center company CBL Properties opened a seven-story Aloft hotel next to Hamilton Place mall. Vision Hospitality earlier this year opened The Kinley hotel with 64 rooms in downtown's Southside across Market Street from the Chattanooga Choo Choo. The 134,901-square-foot hotel at 407 Chestnut Street was originally built as a Sheraton Hotel in 1974, according to Hamilton County property records. Patel said the redeveloped DoubleTree was 'instrumental in seeing the city center to start revitalizing.' 'We wanted to create a boutique convention area,' said Byron DeFoor, who added that the hotel purchases give the West Village about 828 rooms. That stretched the West Village's footprint from Carter Street, across M.L. That area has been dubbed the West Village with a collection of small shops and restaurants.Д®arlier this year, the DeFoor Brothers acquired the nearby Chattanooga Marriott Downtown next to the city's convention center, the Days Inn Rivergate and the Hotel Indigo. In addition, the DeFoor Brothers development group in 2017 built the Westin in the former BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee headquarters at Pine and M.L. Also, a few blocks away, a Hotel Indigo opened last year at Sixth and Pine streets. Today, there are several hotels in the area, including a Holiday Inn & Suites across Chestnut. We bought it and put in a considerable amount of money.'ДЄt that time, much of downtown's growth was along the riverfront, he recalled, and no one wanted to invest south of Fourth Street. 'It was in pretty bad shape,' the company CEO said. Vision bought the hotel in 2006 when it was a Clarion, he said. The hotel was originally built by former Chattanooga developer Franklin Haney in the early 1970s when it opened under the Sheraton flag, Patel said. 'We're continuing to grow and look for opportunities,' Patel said. He said he still believes in the Chattanooga market, where Vision has 13 hotels. I'm one in which it's difficult to do that.

'People say don't get emotionally attached. 'This particular hotel, it made sense,' said Patel. Mitch Patel, Vision's chief executive officer, said the company is typically a long-term holder of its assets, but the sale of the 12-story DoubleTree made strategic sense. has purchased the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel on the 400 block of Chestnut Street for $27.5 million from Chattanooga-based Vision Hospitality Group. A New York City company has bought a downtown Chattanooga hotel that helped ignite a redevelopment of the city's core more than a decade ago.ДЄn affiliate of global investment firm KKR & Co.
