About 4 hours and 20 min away from Nashville, TN, in Johnson City, is a 4-diamond luxury hotel decked out in Baroque-styled decor. Carnegie Hotel and Spa was originally built in the late 1890’s, but was lost in a devastating fire just a decade later.

Now, rebuilt and operating just across the street from the East Tennessee State University, it offers a spa and a restaurant and bar with over 400+ whiskey options. If you go on Thursday, you’ll have to make time for the Thursday night Jazz Jam with local jazz musicians.
