Beautiful grounds. Great service. Great location for a conference. Helpful staff. Within walking distance of a mall and the Grand Old Opry. Several places to eat. Shops. Inside a climate control dome.
by anonymous on 2008-06-25
My husband and I stayed here on the recommendation of several friends. The hotel is beautiful and the food was excellent though very pricy. My only criticism is that we paid for a room with a balcony and the bedding was very scratchy. The room was directly under one of the restaurants or bars and was very loud and noisy. I was expecting more for over * a night. The pool was wonderful and the fitness center was better than any other hotel I have stayed at. We enjoyed shopping at the Opry Mills
by anonymous on 2008-05-23
My wife and I spent 5 nights here while attending a conference on the premises. The hotel is very grand and beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed the gardens and all there was to see. The place is very large, but signs are abundant and we had no real troubles in getting lost. The free shuttle to the Orpy Mills Mall, Opry, and General Jackson were nice to have and saved a lot of walking. We opted for a taxi to and from the airport rather than the airport shuttle; a cab is a flat fare of 25 each way so it was cheaper for the two of us to do that instead of the per person charge for the shuttle. The room was nice; the beds were super comfortable and we slept very well. In general we had no real complaints about the facilities, staff, or even the locals. Everyone is very friendly and professional. The conference facilities were awesome and I would happily come back here again!

At first we thought to change rooms to the cxascade cuz they were the prettiest with the falls and lovely streams, then we didn't and Im so glad, it was way to noisy overthere, Our room was perfect. It also had water features and you can hear them if you open your balcony door. It was an amazing room and we sat outside for breakfast on our own balcony, On the negative side, the room service closes early at 10 pm and the linens were a tough weave that was not soft. The conforter was not comforting, heavy and thick and rough. I hope the change their linen, We will take our own next time. The daily maid service was great, but don't leave one thing on your bed or they will not clean. The consierge service was fantastic, but is closed most the time also, so you need to walk to the cascades to get it done, 15 mins
by anonymous on 2008-05-06
The hotel gardens are beautiful! Definitely worth seeing and spending a day or two! Park for free at the mall next door and walk to the resort. Lower priced rooms are nothing to write home about. Have had better *** rooms. I was especially disturbed by the added 31.00 charge per day for self park and a resort fee on top of the room rate!!!!! All of this to overlook the dumpster.
by anonymous on 2008-04-29
The hotel is beautiful inside. Everything looks amazing. The multiple atriums are enormous. The beauty of the place is worth it alone. But, watch out for the "Gotcha!" fees (listed below). 1) The hotel charges a mandatory extra 15 per day for a "Hotel Fee". They justify this fee with 2 bottles of water (daily), WiFi, etc. So calculate that fee into your price of staying here. 2) The hotel offers a shuttle to downtown Nashville for 25 (round trip) per person. It departs every half hour until 1:30AM. But, if you only want to stay in the city till about 9:00 PM, then you can take the city bus (route 34X) which runs once an hour for less than 4 (round trip). 3) The hotel offers a shuttle to/from the airport for about 30 (round trip) per person. 4) Parking fee is around 15 per day to park. So, calculate all of these expenses into your cost to stay at this hotel. I definitly WOULD stay here again.
