1 Hotel Nashville
$296-550/ night
Book this if You want an eco-luxury sanctuary with a killer rooftop bar in the heart of the action, but don't care about having a pool.
Why People Love It
- Stunning, plant-filled 'biophilic' design that feels like a breathing forest
- Harriet's Rooftop Bar offers some of the best skyline views and cocktails in the city
- Incredible location steps from Bridgestone Arena and Broadway but just removed enough to feel calm
Quick Take: A gorgeous, green-washed fortress of calm that charges top dollar for vibes but forgot to build a swimming pool.
Reviewed by @roxanne_fashionably: I stayed here for a weekend reset and it was exactly what I needed. The room felt like a treehouse in the middle of the city. Watching the sunset over Nashville from that cozy window seat was the highlight of my trip. Highly recommend for a solo recharge.
