Originally built in 1914 as a transit hub, The Central Station draws its historic charm from South Main's distinct architecture, unique history and community spirit. The boutique hotel features eight floors of elegant guest rooms, including nine suites, that evoke the essence of Memphis' rich hues through the color scheme, design elements and various interactive experiences. The rooms will showcase stunning views of the Mississippi river and Memphis, and feature one-of-a-kind photographs from local artist, Jamie Harmon, and EgglestonWorks speakers designed by Memphis-based audio designer, Jim Thompson, which will play curated music in each guest room.
