Nashville Luxury Hotels 10 Best Places to Stay


Nashville Luxury Hotels, there are some very nice and unique ones to choose from. But which ones stand out above the rest?

Some of my top picks for Nashville Luxury Hotels are The Union Station located downtown, The Hermitage is just a couple of blocks from the Lower Broadway bars, The Westin Nashville near The Gulch, and the famous Opryland Hotel and Convention Center located in the Music Valley area.

All offer top-level service and amenities, let’s check them out.

Hilton Nashville Downtown

Hilton Nashville Downtown

Located right in the heart of lower Broadway where all the party bars are! Right behind the hotel is the Walk-of-Fame park and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Go out and party at the Honky Tonk bars and take a very short walk back to a Nashville luxury hotel to sleep off the overindulgence of alcohol. Get up the next morning and walk the Walk of Fame park checking out all the stars and names on the sidewalk of the famous musicians.

This hotel has parking on-site in an underground garage, family rooms, room service, bar, and 3 restaurants inside. Not only are you close to all the action of downtown, but you are also within a few minutes’ drive of some great attractions. Attractions such as the Nashville Zoo, The Parthenon, Opryland Hotel Atriums, and for the kids the Adventure Science Center.

Ok, now that I have that out of the way. This is one of the few Nashville luxury hotels that has A LOT of history! There have been many famous people who stayed here. So, ya never know, you could be staying in the same room just to name a few Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, and more.

21c Museum Hotel Nashville

21c Museum Hotel Downtown Nashville – on 2nd Ave!

Of the Nashville luxury hotels on this list, 21c Museum is very unique. It is like an art gallery and a museum in one. Then add in the modern aesthetics and technology, and this makes for a very nice place to stay that is really close to the live music and bars of Lower Broadway. It is literally … walk out the hotel door, hang a right … it is right down the end of the street.

As of this writing in February of 2023 the aftermath of the Christmas bombing is still very apparent. There are wall sections of many businesses still missing. Don’t worry, many people walk through there on a daily and nightly basis, it is completely safe. It is just sad there was so much damage but luckily there were only 8 people injured and 1 person died. That one person was the bomber who wanted to kill himself in the RV loaded full of explosives.

Just a heads up about parking. The 21c Museum Hotel is just across the street from the James Robertson Pkwy underground parking garage. This garage is one of the cheapest places to park that is close. Check out this article about Nashville parking.

Grand Hyatt Nashville

Grand Hyatt Downtown Nashville – Upper Broadway

Next, up on the list of Nashville luxury hotels is the Grand Hyatt located on the upper part of Broadway. The Grand Hyatt is a bit of a walk to the live music of Lower Broadway. It is just about a 1/2 mile, so it is totally possible to walk to the action of Lower Broadway. But, after a night of drinking and dancing, ride share may likely be in order.

So what are a few of the many perks that Grand Hyatt has to offer? Let’s check out a few. Well, for starters there is a pool on the rooftop, that is cool no doubt!

1 Hotel Nashville

Nashville luxury hotels. 1 Hotel is fairly easy to spot. Look for what looks like fur on the outside.
1 Hotel Downtown Nashville

Of the Nashville luxury hotels on this list, the outside of this one is a bit unique. It looks like it has fur growing on the wall. It makes it easy to spot if nothing else. Ok ..I think it looks kinda cool as well.

1 Hotel is located on Demonbreun street just over a 1/4 mile from the live music of Lower Broadway. It has lots of smaller bars around it so you can check them out as you make your way to party central. I do suggest a little place called the Tin Roof which is pretty close. The walk is pretty easy and actually entertaining as you check out the sites on the way to Lower Broadway.

This 5-star hotel has lots of great things to offer! There is room service, 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, bicycle rental, and grab rails by the toilets when you are too drunk to stand up easily. Wanna be pampered? There is an on-site spa that offers a variety of different massages including couples massages, a steam room, and a sauna.

JW Marriot

The JW Marriott is a very cool-looking hotel! Nashville luxury hotels
JW Marriott in the South Broadway (SoBro) area

The views of Nashville are EPIC!!! Of the Nashville luxury hotels on this list, JW Marriott probably has one of the best city skyline views of any of them! I’ve been on the rooftop where the pool is … the view is just WOW!

Getting to the live music of Lower Broadway is only about a 10-ish minute walk depending on your pace. Lots of smaller cool bars to check out on the way, just don’t get too tanked on the way to the real party on Lower Broad. Or .. if you do, that is ok as well as long as you have a great time visiting Nashville.

While you are staying at JW Marriott may as well get spoiled! Check out the beauty services, Mani, Pedi, body wraps, and spas to really relax. For your convenience, there is a 24-hour front desk and room service. Get a bit of exploration fun exercise by renting a bicycle to explore Nashville.

Gaylord Opryland Hotel and Convention Center

Gaylord Opryland Hotel – Inside atrium during Christmas

Gaylord Opryland Hotel is one of Nashville’s biggest attractions. It is so much more than just a luxury hotel. There are 3 atriums totaling 9 acres of natural indoor gardens, rivers, walking paths, and waterfalls. Oh, there is even a boat ride … inside one of the atriums. Oftentimes locals and tourists come to just visit the atriums for a peaceful walk and maybe even get some food at one of the many restaurants.

Of the Nashville luxury hotels on this list, this one is my personal favorite. I have been there many times with friends and family. They hold a spectacular Christmas each year with millions of lights. You really should come to check out the Christmas event even if you don’t stay the night.

Unlike the other Nashville luxury hotels in this article, the Opryland Hotel is about 11 miles from Lower Broadway. So if you are staying at the hotel having a car will be helpful or ride share.
