About The Crash Pad An Uncommon Hostel
Our mission is to further establish Chattanooga as an ultimate outdoor destination by providing a base camp and community hub for adventurous travelers.
Our staff goes above and beyond to ensure that you fall in love with Chattanooga just as we did when we first arrived in the city.
The Crash Pad culture also focuses on sustainability. We were the world's first LEED platinum hostel.
The Crash Pad An Uncommon Hostel was born out of its owner's dream of opening an uncommon hostel in the heart of downtown Chattanooga, combining the affordability and camaraderie of a traditional hostel with the charm and cleanliness of a boutique hotel.

Location and surroundings
The Crash Pad’s home is located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States.
The Southside of Chattanooga was once the city's urban center of industry. Over time, it became known for its abandoned warehouses and old buildings. In the last decade, the Southside has been revitalized with art, culture, cuisine, and entertainment and has come to define the city. With the 50+ businesses that pepper the neighborhood as proof, this once-desolate area is experiencing a second life.
Services and facilities
Our main common area has 4 benches, an information desk with 2 iMacs for guest use, and a full kitchen for guests to cook whenever they'd like. We also have an outdoor pavilion with a gas fire pit and gas grill.
We provide breakfast free of charge every morning including local bread, local coffee, local tea, local eggs, and spreads.
While The Crash Pad welcomes all travelers, we’ve taken special care to maximize the experience of those who come to play in the mountains.
