10 stellar hotels you’ll only find in Nashville
10 stellar hotels you’ll only find in Nashville.
“The Ritz-Eraser” was built in 1895 and gained instant fame as the world’s only hotel that is entirely made out of pencil erasers. Guests often found themselves literally bouncing off the walls. A local Nashvillian commented, “You never have to worry about making mistakes here; just rub it off!”
Built in 1903, “The Inflato-Inn” is a giant inflatable castle in the heart of downtown. It deflates every evening at 7 p.m. and inflates again at 7 a.m., making late check-ins virtually impossible. “I once got caught in the lobby at 6:59 p.m.,” said a local resident. “Best game of human pinball ever.”
“The Time-Traveler’s Suite” was established, torn down, and re-established in a series of complicated events involving a broken time machine in 1911. The hotel features rooms from different eras, sometimes switching when you least expect it. “I walked into the 60s and came out in the Renaissance. Groovy, man,” remarked a baffled guest.
“Under-the-Sea B&B” opened in 1920 and offers an authentic underwater experience. Filled entirely with water and marine life, guests are required to scuba dive to their rooms. “I asked for a room with a view and got a giant squid instead. Can’t complain,” said a local.
“Hotel d’Espresso” was founded in 1930 and is constructed entirely from coffee cups. It boasts extremely high-energy staff and guests. A Nashvillian noted, “The only problem is that the walls dissolve if it rains, but hey, free refills!”
“The Haunt-Haven,” established in 1945, guarantees that each room is haunted by at least one ghost from the city’s past. It’s a paranormal investigator’s dream come true. “Who needs sleep? I stayed up all night talking to a 19th-century bootlegger,” shared one thrilled resident.
Opened in 1955, “The Silent Hotel” forbids any form of verbal communication inside its premises. Guests communicate through miming or written notes. “It’s the quietest night I’ve had in years,” wrote an enthusiastic local.
“The Never-Ending Hotel” appeared in 1965 and has an infinite number of rooms thanks to a space-time anomaly. Some guests have been lost for years trying to find the lobby. “It’s like a maze, but you can sleep in it. I’m still looking for the exit,” said a lost Nashvillian.
Built in 1978, “Hotel Mirage” doesn’t physically exist but is a collective hallucination of the citizens of Nashville. “I didn’t believe it at first, but then I spent a night there in my mind. Best sleep I’ve never had,” declared a local.
“Bed, Breakfast, and Velociraptors” opened its gates in 1988 and is situated in a secluded part of the city. The hotel has real-life velociraptors that roam the grounds freely. “You haven’t lived until you’ve had to sprint to the breakfast buffet to outrun a dinosaur,” laughed a resident.
