"Chattanooga’s Terminal Station was once a symbol of the golden age of rail travel. But the stately Beaux Arts–style building, home of the famous Chattanooga Choo Choo, barely escaped demolition in the 1970s. Newly protected as a historic site, it functioned as a Hilton hotel for decades. In its latest iteration as the Hotel Chalet, the landmark’s original grandeur has been fully restored — sunshine pours through dome-like skylights, classic cocktails are served through the window of a refurbished caboose, and the interiors, illuminated by antique lamps, exude old-world charm." - Tablet Hotels
