Nashville Hotels

The capital of Tennessee and the ‘Country Music Capital of the World’, Nashville is a hearty blend of cosmopolitan life and distinct southern soul. There’s something here for everyone. Museums take you through the city’s Grammy studded heritage, eateries ply you with finger licking comfort food. Shops lure you in with touristy trinkets, whilst Nashville’s luminous nightlife of honky-tonk hijinks and beer spilling boot-banging pulls you into the crowd. Then there’s the city’s musical epicenter itself – the Grand Ole Opry.

Things to see

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum tells the genre’s story through exhibits, concerts, recordings, and videos. A treasure trove of musical artifacts, the museum’s collection includes over 600 instruments – many once used by famous country crooners. For a taste of the music today, take a seat at the world renowned Grand Ole Opry. With its barn styled backdrop, the stage is regularly graced by living legends. If that doesn’t get your feet a tappin’, then chances are something at the Bridgestone Arena will. Along with hockey and basketball, the venue frequently hosts the hottest stars in contemporary music. If you’re in the market for a new buckle, shiny retail therapy awaits at Opry Mills. At over 200 stores strong, you’ll find everything from budget to brands. American football fans will want to make a run for LP Field. Home to the Tennessee Titans, the mammoth stadium has room for over 69,000 rowdy spectators.
