HOUSTON
Benchmark Hospitality International has announced that The Chattanoogan, a Benchmark Hotel in Chattanooga, Tenn., has completed the renovations of its 25,000-square-foot meeting and event facilities. The refurbishment includes the addition of a new glass tile entry, new floor and wall coverings, revitalized acoustical wall panels and seating in the conference center, and the enhancement of refreshment islands.
Additional renovations included enhanced lighting and the installation of a new cyber café with charging stations and seating, transforming space that originally housed traditional phone booths.
The Chattanoogan is the only Four Diamond-rated, full-service hotel in Chattanooga, and the only hotel in the state of Tennessee certified by the International Association of Conference Centers.
The Chattanoogan's meeting and event rooms have been transformed with design treatments in a palette of blue, brown, gold and red. The integration of warm and cool colors reflect the dynamic architecture of the hotel, which borrows from Chattanooga’s industrial past and the scenic views of the surrounding mountains and landscape. Select customized carpets replicate scenes from the historic city, including rolling hills and flowing patterns resembling the Tennessee River, which flows through the heart of Chattanooga and is a focal point for the city’s revitalized downtown. Wall coverings are in soft shades of neutral tones and grays offset with a variety of subtle patterns. Cream colored large-scale botanical design elements mix beautifully with the eclectic artwork displayed in the meeting space.
The Chattanoogan's 25,000-square-foot conference center features a high-tech learning environment with comprehensive meeting planning and audiovisual support services. All of The Chattanoogan's 20 meeting rooms, including the 16-seat circular boardroom and amphitheater with seating for 85, offer complete networking capabilities and high-speed wireless.
