This Is, Hands Down, the Coolest Hotel in Nashville

One of the first things you'll notice when you walk into the Thompson is the wood floor mosaic, featuring the geographic coordinates of the hotel. The Instagrammable spot was designed by local artist Patrick Hayes of 1767 and made from reclaimed wood from old homes.

You'll spot plenty of local art, such as this woven tapestry, throughout the hotel.

I have some serious furniture envy.

There's a great little reading nook as you enter the coffee shop from the lobby.

More sleek midcentury-inspired furniture with a country twist.

Loved the modern, subtle nods to Nashville's country music scene.

This is my favorite corner of the room.

Hidden lights in the headboard are perfect for late-night reading.

Even the alarm clock is cool.

Every hotel room needs a good floor-length mirror.

The bathroom is also a stylish haven, from the marble vanities to the mosaic floor tiles.

More detail shots of the bathroom.

It's also well designed from a practical standpoint, with plenty of room for two people to get ready.

The room toiletries were from Brooklyn-based D.S. & Durga.

Here's a peek at the hotel's Southern-with-a-twist seafood restaurant Marsh House that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner in addition to brunch on the weekends.

Enjoy something caffeinated at the Killebrew coffee shop.

It has pour-over coffee, cold brew, and more.

Oh, and some mouthwatering pastries.

And last, but definitely not least, be sure to check out the hotel's rooftop bar and restaurant, L.A. Jackson. Hotel guests get to skip the long lines for entry, and it is THE place to be on any given night. Keep your eyes peeled for famous faces — we saw two big-time country musicians the night we were there, and that's apparently a regular occurrence.
