Nashville’s hotel prices might be giving you sticker shock, but there are plenty of ways to keep costs down without sacrificing comfort. Whether you’re after a cozy stay near the action or a quieter retreat a bit further out, these top 10 hotel picks, based on real visitor recommendations, can help you score a deal while exploring Music City.
Moxy Nashville Downtown
Holly Bolesky swears by the flexible dates feature when booking: “Pick a hotel and check the flexible dates box. Then adjust your trip accordingly. I scored a killer deal at the Moxy last weekend doing that.” This trendy hotel is right in the heart of the action, making it perfect for solo travelers who want to explore downtown on foot.
Sonder Hotel
For a stylish and budget-friendly stay, consider the Sonder Hotel, just five minutes from Broadway. Kostas Gakis shared, “I stayed at the Sonder hotel. About a 5 minutes walk to Broadway. If I remember correctly, it was ~100 a night.” Corinne Ball also recommends the Hillsboro Sonder location with its pool and in-room washer and dryer setup.
Millennium Maxwell House
Bree Nicole kept it short and sweet with her recommendation: “Millennium Maxwell.” This classic Nashville hotel offers reasonable rates and a convenient location for those who want a more traditional stay.
Knights Inn Nashville Downtown
Darlene Gauweiler had a positive experience with this budget option: “Knights Inn on Spring Street $69.00. It was clean. 25-minute walk to Broadway. Hot breakfast included.” A solid choice for travelers prioritizing affordability and free breakfast.
Holiday Inn Nashville-Vanderbilt
Angel Darling recommends staying near Vanderbilt University to avoid high downtown prices: “Stay in the Vanderbilt University area and take the hotel shuttle to Broadway instead of staying within walking distance – check out the Holiday Inn over there, I’ve heard their shuttle runs until midnight.” Plus, free shuttles are a huge bonus when navigating a busy city.
Four Points by Sheraton
Candy Oakes highlights the perks of this reliable hotel chain: “Four Points by Marriott. Food in walking distance. Bar in hotel seven nights a week, free breakfast 6 to 9.” Perfect for solo travelers who want on-site amenities and easy access to local eats.
Comfort Inn Downtown Nashville
June Roberts kept it simple: “Comfort Inn downtown I found to be fair.” With free breakfast and a central location, it’s a straightforward pick for those wanting basic comforts without breaking the bank.
Hotel Preston
Davin Annmarie Wilson raved about this gem: “I always stay at the Hotel Preston. Very nice hotel two miles from the airport. Rates are extremely reasonable! Usually $90-$125.” Ideal for those who don’t mind staying a bit further out to save money.
Drury Plaza Hotel Nashville Downtown
Kathy Slocum shared a great tip: “Downtown is very expensive but places like Drury offer breakfast and meals and three drinks a day. Factor that in.” All those extras can really add up in savings, making this hotel a hidden bargain.
