For the location

• The Germantown Inn is a chic boutique hotel in the upscale Germantown district. The ten suites are light and airy with spacious contemporary bathrooms and local artworks. Boasting a quiet setting close to good restaurants and upmarket shops, yet with easy access to the city.
• The 404 is a small hip boutique property with sleek, vintage, custom-built furniture and original art-works. Conveniently situated in the Gulch neighbourhood, between Music Row and downtown Nashville, plus it is next door to the well-known restaurant The 404 Kitchen. This is a simple and stylish choice.

For groups

• 121 Hotel is a stylish boutique hotel offering an intimate, luxurious base in the heart of the city. A good choice for groups as rooms can be configured to accommodate different group sizes; take a whole floor, the entire property, or a couple of rooms.
• Downtown Sporting Club is set right amidst the honky-tonks on Broadway. The rooms are contemporary and stylish while bunk rooms are ideal for friends travelling on a budget. The roof terrace bar is a lively affair plus there is a popular Southern-inspired restaurant and sports bar. A fun city stay.
• Studio 154 is an all-suite hotel in downtown. Suites vary in size but all have a hip industrial feel with high ceilings, exposed brickwork and vast warehouse windows. Large rooms have kitchenettes or kitchens. With various sleeping arrangements, this is ideal for groups.

For couples

• Urban Cowboy B&B is set in a restored Victorian mansion. Interiors offer a modern take on cowboy-chic. Here the relaxed, adults-only atmosphere and romantic soaking tubs make this hotel perfect for couples on an indulgent city break.

For self-catering

• Stay Alfred Sobro is a very central guesthouse comprising of 24 self-catering suites. Accommodation is bright and contemporary with minimalist furniture, expansive windows, large seating areas and a well-equipped kitchenette. With the Music City's nightlife and attractions nearby, this is a great city crash pad for independent travellers.
• Nashville Riverfront Lofts are a hip collection of apartments set just steps from Downtown's Lower Broadway. Options greatly vary in size and style. The largest penthouses are vast warehouse conversions (the best has a rooftop pool). Smaller options are contemporary and chic. Ideal for families or groups wanting independence.

For city style

• Vandyke Bed and Beverage is an undeniably hip concept — eight chic rooms set atop one of the city's best cocktail bars. Rooms have that modern Scandinavian feel with potted plants, pale wood, and retro-inspired furniture.
