Noelle Nashville Debuts Ryman Vinyl Suite

Two Nashville landmarks, Noelle Nashville and Ryman Auditorium, recently announced the debut of the Ryman Vinyl Suite, launched during Grand Ole Opry’s 100^th anniversary year (Ryman Auditorium was home to the Opry 1943–1974) and CMA Awards season.

Sarah Stacey Interior Design designed the suite, using Ryman as inspiration. The space features vintage concert posters, well-worn guitar picks, pennant flags, exclusive photographs of performers who graced the Opry stage and much more. The dramatic centerpiece is a vinyl wall installation showcasing playable records, album covers and authentic pieces from Nashville’s musical legacy. At the heart of the suite is a listening lounge where visitors can enjoy the suite’s curated vinyl collection with more than 100 records. A vintage-style gramophone and Crosley record player offer dual ways to experience the recordings. Headphones are also available for a more personal listening experience. And, lastly, custom stained-glass windows mirror the Ryman’s distinctive façade.

“The magic of Nashville’s music scene lies in its ability to transport you—to make you feel like you’re part of something timeless and alive,” said Ben Thiele, managing director, Noelle Nashville. “The Ryman Vinyl Suite captures that spirit. Inspired by the Ryman, we are able to offer guests an experience that goes far beyond a hotel stay. It’s a chance to live inside Nashville’s musical story, surrounded by the artifacts and sounds that shaped American music history.”

The suite also grants guests access to archival photography and items tied to past performers, such as:

• Washburn Guitar: Crafted from the Ryman’s original oak pews, Washburn produced only 243 of these; the instrument in The Ryman Vinyl Suite was signed by B.B. King.
• Exclusive Archival Photography: Rare images from the Ryman’s archives showcase performers including Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton and Minnie Pearl.
• Wardrobe Applique: The ornate balcony pattern from the Ryman has been hand-drawn onto the suite’s wardrobe.

Available now, the suite is bookable by itself or as part of the hotel’s Needle on the Record offer, including two tickets to a daytime tour of Ryman Auditorium, a signature letterpress show print to commemorate the visit, and an in-room Old Fashioned crafted with Big Machine Distilling.
