We have stayed in several B&B's in Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain area. We were very pleased with our first stay at the Bluff View Inn (Thompson House). This time was an intermediate stop on way to Virginia and back to Louisiana(one night each way). That being said the location of Bluff View Inn was ideal for one night stays on... More

We had a gift certificate for the Bluff View and did not use for 5 years. We finally used our gift certificate and enjoyed our stay tremendously! We walked to dinner at Tony's pasta and then walked to the Tivoli for the Lyle Lovett show, which was awesome. The bathroom in the Gentry room was spacious and clean. Our sleigh... More

My husband and I stayed in the Newell room in the Thompson House for one night. It was clean and roomy. A little bit traffic noise when going to sleep but we put some light soothing music on and fell right to sleep. The staff was very informative and friendly We enjoyed our stay. The area is beautiful and the... More

My family & I spent a couple nights here and really enjoyed it! We had a great little suite that gave our 14 year old son (and my wife and I) a little privacy that's typically hard to find in a B&B. Breakfast was great at the co-owned cafe, and fresh coffee was right outside the room starting at 6:00am!... More

We decided to stay at the Bluff View because of the reviews and it's proximity to many attractions, we were not disappointed. Our room was delightful, as was the entire facility. The website does not tell you that they own the whole block which comprises of two restaurants, a delightful coffee house, bakery and chocolate maker. Not to mention a... More

The Bluff View Inn has a really great location, above the river next to a great art museum. The river walking trail passes through the property and the walking bridge across the river is just past the museum. This inn has several buildings, of course I can't remember the name of the one we stayed in, but it had a... More

A friendly reception awaited us at the Bluff View Inn when we arrived on a very rainy day. The receptionist escorted us to our quarters in a separate building so she could show us the fine points of the Portera/Randall room. We enjoyed a view of the Tennessee River on one side and the rest of the Bluff View campus... More

Bluff View Inn is a B&B with great service in a perfect Chattanooga location with beautiful views. We stayed on Easter weekend so not much in bloom, but it didn't matter because the Inn is on a bluff with sweeping views of the Tennessee River. We took advantage of the Bluff View Inn's location by booking the C.G. Martin Room... More

Being from Chattanooga, I visit the Bluff View Art District a lot. I had always wanted to stay at the Bluff View Inn, so I booked it for our wedding night. The Inn Keepers are super nice and helpful. The entire house is decorated very elegantly. The rooms are clean. You are even allowed to walk in and explore unoccupied... More

Chose this place to propose to my girlfriend! Everything was just right. The people at the Inn were very friendly but not too involved. They made us feel very comfortable.
