Take a step into a vintage transportation hub at The Central Station Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. As part of the Curio Collection by Hilton, the unique hotel is managed by Valor Hospitality Partners. The 105-year-old building has been transformed into a luxury hotel with nods to its historical significance.

Mid-century design complements the antique architecture throughout the building’s 123 guestrooms and suites, each with a view of the lively neighborhood or the flowing Mississippi River. Local art coincides with the 20th-century charm of Memphis’ South Main district that plays off of the music-centric city. The 8 & Sand Bar in the hotel hosts a large, 30-foot wall library of vinyl records with a listening lounge to enjoy any day of the week through Memphis-based EgglestonWorks speakers. Listen to music while sipping on an Old Fashioned, constructed with house-made orange bitters.

The locally sourced Southern cuisine showcases bold flavors like duck a l’organge, a grand aioli tower, fried chicken and escargot. An extensive wine lists complements each dish, all sourced from small, family-owned wineries. The relaxed environment is the perfect restaurant to enjoy a meal and cocktail.
