Just realized I never posted our stay at the Urban Cowboy Hotel in Nashville this summer — such a great, fun, unique place
There are actually four Urban Cowboy hotels — two here in Nashville including this and the Dive Motel, plus one in the Catskills, and another in Denver.
We were in the penthouse — there in the tower above. The restaurant mentioned on the facade is a food truck adjacent the hotel. The bar is inside, and while we didn’t have time to linger there at the moment, we were treated to complimentary tastes of whiskey.
The lobby is the front of the home, with checkin straight from the door. There’s ample seating and it all has a great feel.

Now to the room — as is so common when homes are remodeled into hotels, the bathroom was very small. The claw-foot tub, then, was situated in the main part of the room along with a small-scale leather sofa and some other furnishings, like the travel dresser.
And inside the turret was the actual bedroom, with a Pendelton coverlet.
And looking up, fabulous:
Some of the other things we did on this particular visit included a visit to the Frist Art Museum

a concert fundraiser at The Grand Ole Opry celebrating 30 Years of Forrest Gump
late drinks and bites at Bad Idea
and we tried walking it all off by making some stops on the Natchez Trace on the way home, including time on the Old Trace:
