This three-pearl hotel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as its lobby occupies the city's original 1909 train station. Train cars house a 50s-style pizza joint, and some of the hotel's more charactered guest rooms. There are 145 units, and decor is a mixed bag -- some are contemporary and pleasant but a bit ho-hum, and train car rooms, while charming, can feel dated. However, amenities are thoroughly modern, with flat-screen TV, coffeemakers, and free Wi-Fi, and some rooms have mini-fridges. The property is rundown in spots, but plays host to a slew of eateries plus entertainment venues, including a comedy club. Travelers looking for a stay that's in the heart of downtown can consider Hampton Inn & Suites Chattanooga/Downtown, but it lacks the historic flair.

The upscale Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center is a true destination resort and among the nation’s most popular venues for major conventions. Nine acres of lush, climate-controlled gardens attract droves of tourists, as does fast access to Opry Mills and Grand Ole Opry. Amenities include a full-service spa, 17 dining options, and numerous shops. There are almost 3,000 guest rooms that are spacious and tastefully decorated with contemporary details. But the resort’s sheer size can make it confusing and daunting to simply get around. It’s certainly not for everyone, and it’s not inexpensive, with often-hefty room rates, daily resort fees, and pricey parking. Travelers looking for a smaller, more intimate property could try the boutique Hutton Hotel, which has a stylish look and wine receptions.

The Peabody is not quite as buttoned-up as one would expect from such a grand, historic, luxury property -- the place where Elvis Presley also had his senior prom. The hotel is probably most famous for its twice-daily duck parade, a quirky tradition that dates back to the 1930s in which a group of trained ducks are paraded through the lobby to the large marble fountain. There they swim all day before being ceremoniously walked back up to their home on the roof. There are plenty of more sophisticated features, including Chez Philippe, rated one of the most romantic restaurants in the country. The 464 rooms include 15 suites as well as an exclusive club level with concierge service and free drinks and snacks. Staying here is not easy on the wallet, but some may consider the price worth the charm.
