Nashville staycation

Thanks to an amazing deal with our American Express Platinum card (you can read about it here), we decided to celebrate my husband’s birthday with a staycation in Nashville.

We booked a night at the Thompson Hotel in the Gulch. We arrived right at noon because I saw our room was ready on the app, and we could check in as early as noon with the AMEX offer. I was given this letter to explain all the benefits I would receive thanks to my American Express Platinum card.

The room we checked in was gorgeous. There are lots of amazing hotels in the Nashville area. I would definitely put this up there as one of my favorites. The staff was so nice at check in. After we were given some prosecco we headed to our room.


I mentioned that it was my husband’s birthday celebration when we checked in the hotel. After we got settled in the room. We had a knock at the door and these arrived from the front desk to help us celebrate.

cava and chocolates!

We used our $100 dining credit at the Marsh House restaurant. The restaurant was gorgeous and we both enjoyed our dinner. They had an excellent raw bar. We were also able to use the $25 beverage credit.

Even though we could have had a late check out of 4pm. We decided to eat breakfast at Marsh house and then head home. The breakfast was amazing I highly recommend the avacado toast and crispy bacon.

My husband and I both agreed this was an amazing way to celebrate his birthday.
