The most exquisite hotel located in Nashville, Tennessee, is easily the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center. It is approximately a 15 minute drive from downtown. But, there is plenty to do within walking distance as well. For example, it sits next to the Grand Ole Opry, where the 55th ACM Awards were hosted in September of 2020. The resort also sits along the Cumberland River, with a mall, food joints, a water park, and a golf course nearby.
The 4.6 star place itself is situated on 9 acres of indoor gardens, waterfalls, and a river. The atrium, where you can take an indoor boat ride, is absolutely jaw-dropping. And, when it comes to eating, there are 20 places to choose from, just inside the hotel! Meanwhile, the European-inspired spa offers many services, such as body treatments, facials, massages, manicures, pedicures, and more. Additional amenities are a state-of-the-art fitness center, game room, newsstand, barber/beauty shop, florist, and a shoeshine stand.
If you stay here, you CAN’T miss the SoundWaves indoor and outdoor water attraction. The Lagoon Activity Pool features a rock wall and basketball hoops. There are two other heated pools in the vicinity too: one with a swim-up bar for adults and one for those who want to swim in a lap lane. And, I can’t forget about the wave rider, lazy river, and water slides!
When it comes to rooms, the hotel has 3 different types. The least expensive is the guest room, which is the size of a typical hotel room, filled with contemporary decor, a television, radio, mini fridge, a sink area, bathroom, desk, chair, coffeemaker, and either one king or two queen beds.
If you’d like to upgrade, you can pay for the parlor or the deluxe room. The parlor has all of the same furniture as the guest rooms, but with different style decor, additional furniture, and much more space. It is a large suite with a queen-sized bed, plus a couch in the room’s lounge area.
As for the deluxe, this is basically the size of a mini apartment! It includes a 6-chair dining area, a lounge area with a television, couch, 2 sofa chairs, and a coffee table. This room is by far the biggest, and comes with a queen-sized bed.
If you stay at the Gaylord Opryland Resort, you are sure to be amazed, and you will never get bored! Not to mention, you will get VERY reasonable rates, depending on the dates that you book your stay. If you have any further questions, please reach out to me.
Thanks for the read 🙂
