Guestrooms & Amenities
Near many of the city's local landmarks, Caption by Hyatt Downtown Nashville - The Gulch caters to a variety of travelers, from individuals and families to locals and meeting groups, design enthusiasts, and everything in between.
The property's 210 stylish guestrooms are accented with bold pops of color and Nashville-inspired décor, thoughtfully paying homage to the rich history of the Gulch neighborhood, a former industrial and railroad hub now transformed into a modern destination with the city's top restaurants and shopping. The design celebrates this heritage with numerous railroad-inspired elements throughout the property, referencing the active train yard behind the hotel.
In the guestrooms, headboard murals are inspired by train yards, while the corridor walls feature large sketch-style drawings of trains. Even the stenciled room numbers are a nod to boxcar numbering. Meeting rooms are named after rail industry terms, and several curated art pieces throughout the property incorporate railway motifs. On the first floor, the entry art installation weaves together train imagery and lyrics from iconic train songs, offering guests a warm and culturally rich welcome.
The hotel's furniture offers comfortable and flexible accommodations with warm, vintage inspired leather sofas, modern hardwood floors, dark wood worktables, vibrant pillows and accent chairs, and decorative murals throughout.
