During your Nashville vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Tennessee State Capitol
The Tennessee State Capitol, completed in 1859, is a classically proportioned Greek Revival building that sits on a hill on the north side of downtown Nashville. The capitol is constructed of local Tennessee limestone and marble that slaves and convict laborers quarried and cut. Other notable features include the 19th-century style and furnishings of several rooms in the building, a handful of ceiling frescoes, and many ornate details. President and Mrs. James K. Polk are both buried on the capitol's east lawn. You can pick up a guide to the capitol at the Tennessee State Museum. It won't take long to admire it from the outside.
Cheekwood Botanical Garden & Museum of Art
Once a private estate, Cheekwood today has much to offer both art lovers and garden enthusiasts. The museum and gardens are situated in a 55-acre park that's divided into several formal gardens and naturally landscaped areas. The museum itself is housed in the original Cheek family mansion, which was built in the Georgian style with many architectural details brought over from Europe. Among the mansion's most outstanding features is a lapis lazuli fireplace mantel. Within the building are collections of 19th- and 20th-century American art, Worcester porcelains, antique silver serving pieces, Asian snuff bottles, and a good deal of period furniture.The grounds are designed for strolling, and there are numerous gardens, including: Japanese, herb, perennial, dogwood, magnolia, iris, peony, rose, azalea; and there are greenhouses full of orchids. Kids will enjoy romping around the grassy meadows on the museum grounds. Don't miss the glass bridge that awards hikers along the wooded sculpture trail. You'll also find a gift shop and good restaurant, The Pineapple Room, on the grounds. Allow a couple of hours to tour the museum, or up to a full day if you plan to explore the grounds and garden as well.
Travellers Rest Historic House Museum
Built in 1799, Travellers Rest, as its name implies, once offered gracious Southern hospitality to travelers passing through a land that had only recently been settled. Judge John Overton (who, along with Andrew Jackson and Gen. James Winchester, founded the city of Memphis) built Travellers Rest. Overton also served as a political advisor to Jackson when he ran for president. Among the period furnishings you'll see in this restored Federal-style farmhouse is the state's largest public collection of pre-1840 Tennessee-made furniture. Allow an hour to tour the museum, and more if you want to wander the grounds and outbuildings.
Nashville Airport Marriot
This is one of Nashville's most resort-like hotels, featuring lots of recreational facilities, not the least of which is an indoor/outdoor pool that is being renovated for 2004. If you want to stay in shape while you're away from home, this is an excellent choice. The hotel grounds cover 17 landscaped and wooded acres, though the proximity to the highway keeps the grounds rather noisy. Traffic sounds are not a problem if you book an upper-level floor. All the guest rooms feature elegant, classically styled furnishings and come with irons and ironing boards, as well as hair dryers. For business travelers, there are large work desks and a concierge level. Families will do well to ask for a lower-level poolside room; for extra space, try one of the corner rooms, which are 30% larger than standard rooms. The casual restaurant serves a wide range of pasta, poultry dishes and generous salads, and has a pleasant view of the woods outside. A quiet lounge sometimes has live music.
Holiday Inn Select Vanderbilt
With the Vanderbilt University football stadium right outside this 12-story hotel's back door, it isn't surprising that this is a favorite with Vanderbilt alumni and football fans. However, if you stay here, you're also right across the street from Centennial Park and the Parthenon. Couples and business travelers will do well to ask for a king room. These are considerably more comfortable than rooms with two beds in them, and have work desks. If you ask for a room on the park side of the hotel, you may be able to see the Parthenon from your room. All the rooms here have small private balconies.
Best Western Downtown Convention Center
Perks such as free valet parking (one car per room) and continental breakfast make this motel a frugal choice if you're on a budget but want the convenience of being downtown. The District, the Ryman Auditorium, and the Tennessee Performing Arts Center are all within a few blocks. The guest rooms are basic, but all bathrooms and soft goods in the rooms were renovated recently. If you're looking for a room with a view, ask for one on an upper-floor on the north side.
