The house
Omni Hotels & ResortsCountry-music convention tower
The downtown tower connects directly to the convention center and shares walls with the Country Music Hall of Fame.
“But even if you never left the building, you’d find 800 rooms, five restaurants and live music spaces, a spa and rooftop pool deck.”
What it’s good at
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
An expansive lobby that seems to stretch every which way and is punctuated by couches and other seating areas.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Bridgestone Arena sits across the street, and Lower Broadway's honky-tonks are a two-block walk away.

The rooms
Rooms come in dark palettes and bold patterns. Suites add soaking tubs looking out over downtown.
The pool and gym
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated fourth-floor rooftop pool looks toward the skyline, and treadmills line the gym's floor-to-ceiling windows.
The spa
On the fourth floor, the spa includes eight treatment rooms and dry cedar saunas tucked in the locker rooms.
Restaurant
Bob’s Steak & Chop House
Red plaid booths and displays of vintage microphones set the room for Midwestern prime beef and chops.
At the table
Kitchen Notes bakes fresh Southern biscuits all morning, and a circular marble bar anchors the soaring lobby.
How it began
Designers modeled the elevator banks on acoustic guitar sound holes and used exposed steel inspired by Cumberland River bridges.

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.

You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.

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.

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
