Perfect accommodation in the historic arts district. Perched above the river, steps from the art museum and the pedestrian bridge across the river.

Great stay in Chattanooga.

Great location, coffee shop close by. Great views from the bluffs!

10/10 Exceptional

A very quaint well managed property. A welcome change from corporate chain hotels with featureless rooms. A pleasant area of Chattanooga to stay in, enjoyed Tony’s for dinner one evening.
Ian, 2-night trip

Very well decorated room. Great view of the Tennessee river from room. The bathtub/ shower and bed mattress needs to be updated or replace.

I loved this neighborhood/building/room. It’s situated on a bluff over the Tennessee River, adjacent to the art museum and downtown.

For the price of room, expected a nice wine and cheese reception in afternoon.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property and gorgeous room. The fluffiest, most luxurious towels I’ve ever used. The staff was courteous and very helpful. Convenient location and delicious complimentary breakfast. Would definitely recommend to others. A

Beautiful location, unfortunately areas were closed off and couldn't be enjoyed. Room was layed out poorly, couldn't view the TV easily from any angle. Great views, lots of character.

Thompson house. Bluff Inn

Wonderful place. Lots of room. Easy to park. Cool enough to use the fireplaces. Easy walk to many places. Only downside was being here in the fall, they were blowing leaves before 7:00 a.m. Innkeeper was awesome!
Fay, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Tony's Italian restaurant was attached and excellent. Art museum, aquarium, riverside are all close and walkable. Lots of ambulance noise at night.

10/10 Exceptional

The Bluff View Inn is an amazing place to stay! Beautiful rooms with antiques. Kelly was amazing! She is friendly and gave us wonderful recommendations for dinner and for where to go for antiquing! The free breakfast in the morning is hearty and delicious. The Italian restaurant, Tony's, has great food. I can not say enough great things about this location. We will definitely be staying here again and recommending it to all of our friends.

did not like the breakfast was served by a restaurant and not at the house. Not a homecooked meal and not even offered juice
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

situated on the chattanooga river walk on a small bluff overlooking the tennessee river - it’s great to take stroll across the nearby pedestrian bridge to the north shore. the b&b is in one of several victorian (?) buildings which form the bluff view arts district comprising bakery coffee shop italian restaurant and art gallery. plenty of parking - really nice vibe just strolling in the area. very friendly and informative check in from georgia - the name of the lady! altogether a great stay. love chattanooga btw
Teresa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not really a bed and breakfast to our standard. Check in very impersonal-more like a hotel. No on site interaction or help. Breakfast was offsite at a small coffee shop. Extremely cold and impersonal overall. Room was nice but bathroom needed some updating. Overall disappointing for price and expectations for a B&B.
Gregg G, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

No ice available lots of the time
Diane, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The lodging was a classy and well maintained historic property. The staff was very responsive and friendly and knowledgeable. The included breakfast at their Rembrandt Café felt mass produced and the sausage and egg sandwich had a huge slab of spongy egg and flavorless meat. Had dinner at their Italian restaurant Tony’s which had the ambience of a college cafeteria with beat up wooden chairs and tables and there was a small pile of food and napkins on the floor next to our table from a previous patron that had not been noticed or cleaned up which I had to step over. The spaghetti and sausage I had tasted like the same sausage in the breakfast sausage sandwich which is to say nondescript. My wife’s fra diavolo had a total of 6 small shrimp. Thumbs up for a quaint and romantic inn with a nice art gallery on their “campus” and great scenic setting on a high bluff (hence the name) overlooking the wide Tennessee River. Thumbs down on the food. The free included coffee was decent.
