Nashville has been the “it” city for quite some time, and with all of that national attention has come flocks and flocks of tourists who want to experience what it is that makes Nashville so special. And with those visitors come more and more new hotels, but this one in the heart of the old East Nashville neighborhood is different. The owners took an old, historic church building and completely refurbished it while maintaining much of this history of the original building, making for one of the most unique spots to stay in the entire city. You won’t believe how beautiful this place really is.
