Okay, why am I adding a hotel recommendation when you've chosen an airbnb??! Because the art at this hotel is so freaking rad! I always take my out of town friends and fam to check it out. The bottom three floors host something like 10,000 sq. ft. of art. The story goes that the owners started this small boutique chain of hotels because they apparently are billionaires of the Kentucky Bourbon persuasion and they had "too much" contemporary art and nowhere to store it. Oh, to be rich! ;-) Lol. Anyway, they carefully curate the art around quarterly themes and they feature very avant garde and sometimes rique' pieces. The owners feel that art should be more accessible to all, and therefore there is no charge for entry to their museums and all museum tours are FREE. The Nashville location offers a guided museum " Tuesday Tipsy Tour." Grab a discounted drink from the Tipsy Tour Menu (available Tuesdays from 6pm-7pm for tour guests only) at the bar in Gray & Dudley and join them in the lobby at 7pm to explore with a guided tour. They also have a regular tour on Thursdays at 5:30. Pro Tip: If you plan to explore downtown, parking can be CRAZY and expensive. If you valet at 21c before 5pm and grab a bite or drink at their restaurant, Gray+Dudley, (which is delicious btw and reasonably priced), they offer free valet and don't mind if you eat and then go explore downtown leaving your car.
