We stayed on the Delta Queen the weekend of Jan 27, and I booked a stay with one of their on-line specials they were advertising. The staff was wonderful, the rooms were very nice (if small) and the food at the on-board restaurant was great. The only complaint I had was that the showers were luke-warm. Our bed was big... More

“Memorable and wonderful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

Staying on this floating monument to our steamboating history is a privilege. We have been on the American Queen, and wanted so much to stay on the original Delta Queen. I chose a surprise visit to Chattanooga to celebrate my wife's birthday, and booked cabins for us and for my daughter and son in law. Everything went without a hitch.... More

“An experience worth having:”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

Definitely not a Hilton but if you are interested in experiencing the 1920's its worth it. This hotel is actually a Steamboat that has been around for ages. It has since been tied to shore and converted into a hotel. Choices in rooms are Bunk, Standard, and Suite... or something like that. Bunk rooms are TINY, but convenient for a... More

“The breakfast was delicious.”

person found this review helpful

Before I start saying anything about my experience, I want to say that the breakfast buffet was extremely delicious. My goodness.. I hadn't had that great a breakfast in ages. Fresh cooked fluffy biscuits, and such a variety of morning treats. It was my best memory of this stay. Now for the negative: We couldn't park near the hotel at... More

I am very sorry and a bit confused to learn of your negative experiences at our hotel. I am not familiar with any information regarding transportation from the south shore to the boat, so if you could let me know about that, I will certainly follow up. We do offer valet parking while this construction is going on, and we... More

“Charged our credit card twice”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

We booked through hotels.com and we gave our card in case of incidentals at the delta queen. There were none. We have called three times about the double charge, and they say each time they will take care of it. Still not taken care of. Otherwise good location etc. Management needs to do a better job. Beware. More

Since we do not have your name, we will guess that this a party we have contacted several times. We did apologize for the double booking, and we have asked for a copy of your credit card statement to confirm the double charge. Please send that to us ASAP, and we will resolve this matter and credit your account. More

“WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

We went on a road trip with our oldest(14) and youngest grandson(6) and what a fun and unique experience we had on the Delta Queen. Yes, the rooms are small but everything else on the boat is bigger and better than many higher end hotels. When I called to make reservation until the moment we got off the boat everyone... More

“Quaint and Unique but Shows its Age”

This is one of those places that every American probably should visit once. It's a unique piece of history, heritage, and culture anchored in a very scenic spot on the Chattanooga Northshore. One must bear in mind, however, that it's older and harkens back to a time when life was simpler and people were smaller! The rooms (cabins?) are quite... More

Thank you for taking the time to make your comments about our hotel. We are a historic property who turns 85 years old this summer. There are some temperature challenges, but we do have heat and air conditioning in the rooms, tho there are not individual thermostats. We do hope you will be able to revisit us soon! More
