The Best Hotels Within Walking Distance of Broadway

Nashville visitors in the Facebook group shared their favorite hotels close to Broadway. These are the places people actually stay at and recommend when they return.

Used with permission, Drury Inn & Suites

Drury Plaza Hotel

This one isn't close — it's a landslide. The Drury got mentioned more than any other hotel by far.

People love the location, just 5 minutes from Broadway. But the real draw is what's included: free breakfast, free drinks and food at happy hour (3 free drinks per person per day), and the price is reasonable compared to other downtown options.

One visitor joked, “Don't stay there, you might be taking a reservation I want!” Right up the street from the Johnny Cash Museum. Some people mentioned noise from a nearby fire or police station, so bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper.

Hyatt Centric Downtown Nashville

The Hyatt Centric came up repeatedly for its location. It's super close to 3rd and Broadway — people said it's right there.

Rooms are clean, and you're near restaurants, a dollar store, and a liquor store. One visitor compared it favorably to the Grand Hyatt and The Bobby, saying those hotels involved too many hills.

Omni Nashville Hotel

The Omni got consistent recommendations. People described it as “perfect” and close to everything on Broadway.

It's right downtown across from the Music City Center, about a 5-minute walk to Broadway. The location makes it easy to get around.

Embassy Suites Downtown

Embassy Suites earned its spot with the perks. Huge free breakfast daily, happy hour with drinks and snacks, and rooms that visitors called “huge.”

It's off Broadway a bit, so it's quieter than some downtown hotels. People specifically mentioned the staff being great. One visitor said it's beside Bridgestone Arena.

Hilton Downtown Nashville

The Hilton Downtown got plenty of love for being right off Broadway. Multiple visitors said they loved it and had no complaints.

Close enough to walk everywhere, and the location is the main selling point. Straightforward, reliable choice.

Holiday Inn Downtown/Broadway

Several Holiday Inn locations got mentioned, but the ones on or near Broadway came up most. The Holiday Inn and Suites Downtown is across from Music City Center — about a 10-minute walk.

The Holiday Inn Express on Broadway was also mentioned. Both are reasonably priced for the location.

Renaissance Nashville Hotel

The Renaissance is right downtown across from Bridgestone Arena. It's connected to the Food Court, which visitors said is “crazy convenient.”

Close to everything on Broadway. People mentioned it's expensive but worth it for the location and hospitality.

Cambria Hotel Nashville Downtown

The Cambria got multiple recommendations with no complaints. The location works, and people return to it.

Not much detail in the comments, but when people mention a hotel without criticizing it, that's usually a good sign.

Margaritaville Hotel

Margaritaville came up enough times to make the list. If you like the Margaritaville vibe, this is your spot.

Close to Broadway and fits the Nashville party atmosphere well.

The Bobby Hotel

The Bobby is a boutique hotel that people described as “amazing.” Some visitors said they stay here every time they want to walk to Broadway.

One visitor mentioned hills being an issue compared to other downtown hotels, so consider that. But the boutique experience and location keep people coming back.
