Picture Nashville and you're likely to imagine cowboys line-dancing in a dusty country-western saloon. Funny, you've managed to picture the precise, diametric opposite of The Hermitage Hotel.
Built in 1908, the grand architecture of this place is immediately impressive. From the soaring lobby to the fully stocked fitness room, your chances of spotting a line-dancing cowboy are about the same as spotting a break-dancing unicorn: nil. What you will spot is a small army of hotel staff working 24 hours a day to ensure your stay is as perfect as possible.
Rooms and suites, there are 122 in total, average about 475 sq. ft. Marble bathrooms with soaker tubs, and wireless internet are tantalizing amenities, but nothing here tantalizes quite like on-site restaurant Capitol Grille Nashville. The award-winning venue serves inventive southern cuisine, with an emphasis on Tennessee game. One bite and you'll be line-dancing yourself.
