Hotel
You can ask for the Hammond Darrow room block options! The Hampton provides breakfast for free, and is very central to anything you could want to walk to downtown.
Hotel
If you decide to go with this hotel, ask for the Hammond Darrow Room Block. Springhill Suites are right on the water and a short walk across the street to be directly downtown!
Hotel
We do not have a room block for this hotel but it is across the street from the Hampton (which is one of the hotel blocks) The Double Tree was recently renovated and also has great rates.
Travel Note
If you are flying into the Chattanooga Airport (CHA) it is a very easy airport to navigate! Approximately 3 gates so you will be through easily, and it is about 15 minutes from downtown. As for other airports around, Nashville and Atlanta are both great options. Nashville may have cheaper rates and is the same distance as the Atlanta airport (without all the crazy traffic!) Nashville is also on Central Timezone, as Chattanooga and Atlanta are on eastern time zone.
