The Hermitage Hotel as a host to U.S. presidents and dignitaries

The Hermitage Hotel in downtown Nashville opened in 1910 as a luxury Beaux-Arts hotel and has since hosted numerous U.S. presidents and national figures. The hotel is a longstanding historic landmark in Nashville and has been preserved as an example of early 20th-century luxury hospitality in the city. Its public rooms and history interpret the hotel’s role in Nashville’s civic and social life over more than a century.
