    Nicest physical room I've ever stayed in in a hotel. The suite was a true suite, two complete rooms connected by a hall with a bathroom. Beautiful city view from extensive wall of windows. Just like home as far as comfort. A little more...

    We absolutely loved our time at The Tennessean. From the moment you walk in the lobby you feel welcome. There are lots of little touches. The rooms are expansive yet comfortable. So convenient to everything we wanted to do. We will definitely stay...

    The room and bathroom were spacious, loved the mirrors. Also liked the location. And they have a shuttle service that will take you within 3 miles of the hotel. It is first come, first served though, so if it was a busy day, one could wait awhile....
