Union Station Hotel
Once Nashville’s gateway for rail travel, Union Station is now a prestigious hotel and a National Historic Landmark. With its barrel-vaulted lobby ceiling of gold-leaf medallions and original one-hundred-year-old stained glass, the nineteenth-century former railroad station honors the legacy of passenger trains while providing stellar accommodations for visitors. A soaring tower of Kentucky limestone dominates the skyline above the Romanesque building.
