The rooms
Rooms have high ceilings and rich midnight-blue tones, while select suites open onto private balconies.
The gym
Peloton bikes and Precor strength equipment fill the fitness room, with a Purezza water system on tap.
At the table
Stateside Kitchen serves steaks and hosts weekend DJ brunches, and Parlour Bar stirs barrel-aged cocktails next door.
How it began

The 1890 Utopia Hotel was created by Hugh Cathcart Thompson, the same architect behind the Ryman Auditorium.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
