The Stanton House was a luxurious hotel which existed in the golden era of passenger trains in Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States. It was built in 1871 and named after its founder, John C. Stanton, president of the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad. The Stanton House was advertised as the "most elegant hotel in the south" at five stories tall with 100 guest rooms. The hotel became a large attraction for wealthy railroad passengers and even hosted president Rutherford B. Hayes. The hotel boasted restaurants, a barber shop, observatory, billiard rooms and a large dining hall which could seat up to 200 guests. The Stanton House was demolished in 1906 for Chattanooga's new terminal station to be built.
