This is ENCHANTING CASTLE HALL. 🏰 The penthouse apartment is located at the top (4th floor) of The Pythian Building, locally known as The K.P. Building. Castle Hall 🏰 construction was completed in 1902 to serve as the Grand Ball Room & Meeting Lodge for the secret brotherhood society, The Knights of Pythias.

This 3000+ ft.² penthouse has stunning 16 ft. original metal tiled ceilings complimented by exposed brick & plastered walls. Uniquely furnished & fully functional with sleeping accommodations for 6. THE ENTIRE TOP (4th) FLOOR PENTHOUSE IS ALL YOUR PRIVATE SPACE!

The building was finished in 1902 & was an immediate focal point of the Fayetteville, TN town square.

This Penthouse apt exceeded my expectations. The host,Joe, met us at apt and got us checked in. He told us a little history of the building, and was very accommodating. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It is centrally located in downtown area within walking distance of restaurants, gas station, bakery and ice cream shop on the ground floor. We hope to make it back here again one day when we can stay longer, 100% enjoyed our stay!

This place is insane! I mean WONDERFULLY insane...LOVED it!! Fully stocked, incredibly spacious, and like staying in a museum. Location is perfect! Only potential drawback (for some) might be the steps to the top floor. Host says 59, but I only counted 48...but nevertheless, that could be a problem for some guests (but wasn't for me). If you're in the Fayetteville area, this is a must stay!

Fun couples getaway!!

We had an amazing time! It was a surprise location for my husband. Joe, our host, was so great to contribute to the "gotcha" moment. It's such a unique set up...definitely one of a kind! We also found plenty to do in the area - a tour of the Jack Daniels distillery, wine tasting, great food and a hike to a gorgeous waterfall. Make sure to try the first floor ice cream parlor during your stay! Loved it!!

One night is simply not enough

Do yourself a favor, and make it a long weekend stay (at least!). We will definitely be coming back for a longer visit. There is SO much to see, learn, and enjoy. Staying in the Pythian is an experience. Take it all in. The history is incredible. Go antiquing around the historic square. Grab dinner & margaritas at the mexican restaurant...all within walking distance. You won't regret it.
