This Old Train Station In Tennessee Is The Most Unique Place To Spend The Night
The Chattanooga Choo Choo is a historic train station turned hotel offering a unique stay in retrofitted Pullman sleeping cars.
Have you ever wanted to sleep in a vintage train car without leaving town? If so, you have very specific goals in life, but we've got you covered nonetheless. The Chattanooga Choo Choo was made famous by the Glenn Miller Orchestra in 1941, and it's since been turned into a hotel along with its namesake Chattanooga station. It's a one-of-a-kind experience that you can only find in Tennessee, and we promise that it is one that you are certainly unlikely to forget any time soon!
"The Chattanooga Choo Choo" is famous, thanks to Glenn Miller's recording in 1941.
The train took passengers from Cincinnati to Georgia, stopping in Chattanooga along the way.
Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
You bet it is — the historic train is still at the station, but there's more to it than meets the eye.
You can actually stay in the old, historic Pullman sleeping cars!
Each car has been retrofitted to look like modern hotel rooms, so you get the best of every world.
Each car even features a full queen bed!
What would have to sleep most of the passengers from the Midwest to the South back in the day now just sleeps a couple. It's also now much more comfortable and we thought when we stayed here, oh so romantic!
Today, the main hotel is in the old Terminal Station.
The lobby is a shining tribute to the architecture of the middle age of America...
...as well as to the prominence of train travel for its citizens.
The hotel also features an indoor pool and the Glenn Miller Formal Gardens.
