Wyndham Union Station

Frommer's Review

Housed in the Romanesque Gothic former Union Station railway terminal, built in 1900, this hotel is a grandly restored National Historic Landmark. The lobby is the former main hall of the railway station and has a vaulted ceiling of Tiffany stained glass. Everywhere you look, there's exquisite gilded plasterwork. The hotel's best accommodations are the gallery deluxe rooms, which have 22-foot-high ceilings and huge arched walls of glass that overlook the lobby. A few other rooms also have high ceilings and large windows, and though unique, can get quite hot in the afternoon. Although all rooms offer exterior views, some also have the disadvantage of overlooking the railroad tracks, a plus for railroad buffs but perhaps less endearing to others. If you're looking for a unique and atmospheric accommodation in Nashville, this is it. Arthur's, the former train station's women's smoking room, is the hotel's premier restaurant and one of city's finest. For breakfast, there's the gallery, a raised area in the main lobby. The vaultlike McKinley Room, with its arched windows, stone walls, and Spanish floor tiles has been converted to a conference room.
