The Joseph, A Luxury Collection Hotel

Hotel
(5 stars)

Found in the SoBro district of Nashville’s Downtown, The Joseph is named after the hotel brand’s forefather. Style is at the forefront here – even the staff’s uniforms have been exclusively designed. There are huge sculptures, immersive digital installations, living green walls, original artworks commissioned especially for the hotel and a curated range of goodies in the 297 bedroom’s minibars. Dining is also an art form; Yolan is the in-house signature restaurant (with its own cheese ‘cave’), serving refined Italian dishes, accompanied by vinos from the chilled glass-surrounded wine cellar. The rooftop is home to the indoor-outdoor Denim lounge and the Rose wellness centre.

Thompson Nashville

Hotel
(4 stars)

In the fashionable Gulch district is the Thompson. In keeping with its cool neighbourhood, the hotel lobby has a suitably hipster roastery, Killebrew Coffee, which is open for late-night brews at weekends. Head to the rooftop for a different kind of brew (you can sample many local breweries beers at the bar, along with cocktails and lighter meals), or the ground floor eatery, where seafood is the main attraction. Rooms include floor to ceiling windows, carved dark wooden headboards, furniture that nods to retro design and navy and white furnishings for a classic, yet contemporary effect.
