Top hotels in East Chattanooga
The Read House Hotel
Bar food was better than most. They have Starbucks. Room was clean. Plenty of room to maneuver my wheelchair, especially the bathroom. It's the biggest I've seen. Staff was very helpful.

The Hotel Chalet at The Choo Choo
My only minor complaints were they didn't have ice available for the room and paid parking that was also taxed. We loved sleeping in an actual train car. We slept to sounds of a train on my cellphone. We will probably be back regardless.
