Top Nashville Hotel Reviews

Best Western Downtown Plus Music Row

8/10 Good

"The hotel was decent. It could use an upgrade in certain areas. The pool was perfect after a hot day touring. The free breakfast was nice. Location is good, especially if you do not want to be in the center of major activity. It has free massage chairs which was a nice treat after a day of walking."

Sheraton Music City Nashville Airport

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and ready when we arrived. Building a little older, decently kept up."

Knights Inn Nashville

8/10 Good

"Knights Inn Nashville isn't overly fancy, but my room was clean, the bed was comfortable, there was a working refrigerator, the air conditioner worked well (amid some very hot Nashville weather!), the daily breakfast was decent, and the shower was hot and had good pressure. Those are all the important things to me, so -- I was satisfied with my experience!"
