The Hermitage Hotel
The Hermitage Hotel is Nashville’s 1910 grande dame, pairing 122 oversized rooms and suites with marble bathrooms, a landmark skylit lobby and Jean-Georges dining beside the Tennessee State Capitol.
The Hermitage Hotel sits on Sixth Avenue North beside the Tennessee State Capitol and close to downtown Nashville’s museums, restaurants and entertainment district.
Opened in 1910, the hotel remains one of the city’s great historic interiors, with a painted-glass skylight, Tennessee and Italian marble and an atmosphere that feels far removed from newer glass towers.
Its 122 rooms and suites are unusually spacious and were recently refreshed with a lighter residential aesthetic. Marble bathrooms, sitting areas and custom beds reinforce the sense of old-school full-service luxury.
Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten leads the culinary program through Drusie & Darr and The Pink Hermit. There is no swimming pool, and the hotel emphasizes its 24-hour fitness center and downtown experience rather than resort-style wellness.
The Hermitage is best for travelers who want Nashville with history and gravitas, particularly guests who value architecture, Capitol views and serious dining more than rooftop pools or a nightlife-first hotel.
