The top treatments at The Spa at The Chattanoogan

If you’re thinking spa getaway that is both elegant and unpretentious – a place where you can get top-of-the-line service and treatments while letting your hair down and really relaxing – head to The Chattanoogan Hotel in Chattanooga, Tenn.

This urban chic retreat in Chattanooga’s Southside district has it all: 198 sumptuous guestrooms, excellent dining choices, a location just a bit removed from the hubbub of downtown but close to warehouse shops, galleries and open-air market . . . and tranquil full-service day spa.

In fact, as soon as you step inside this AAA Four Diamond-rated full-service resort you’ll notice that every element is designed to help you relax: a soothing earthy color palette, stretches of burnished cherry wood and stone flooring with wrought iron railing accents, a warming fire sparking in a massive see-through hearth, hushed hallways, murmured conversations.

Located on the second floor, The Spa complex comprises a steam room, sauna, whirlpool, indoor pool and fitness center. The Spa Terrace, overlooking the hotel’s courtyard, is a relaxing place to enjoy a drink or light meal before or after your spa indulgence.
