Cute and musical

Amazing hotel in the heart of Tennessee with musical decor. My favorite part was the record player in each room with records in the lobby to take up to your room. Delicious restaurant on site.

Highly Recommend this Boutique Hotel

Friendly staff, beautiful clean room and very comfortable bed. The hotel is on State street and in a nice location for local shopping. A very good restaurant and bar located as part of the hotel complex. A nice gift shop and coffee offered in the morning.

Beautiful Hotel in the heart of Bristol

Beautiful and cleverly themed hotel based on the birth of country music in Bristol. But, you don’t need to be a country music fan to enjoy this hotel. It is an very artistically renovated building. The barbecue restaurant next door is excellent. It is located in Bristol’s downtown on the street that could be described as the Main Street.
