Top Donelson Hotel Reviews

Spark by Hilton Nashville at Opryland

8/10 Good

"Shower spout comes off when you pull up diverted. We had to go get towels. Bed was comfortable. Air conditioner was extremly loud. It sounded like a plane taking off...woke me all night."

Holiday Inn Nashville Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"I travel a lot and have stayed at Holiday Inn hotels many times. The hotel was nice and it was very clean. The hotel staff at the front counter seemed distracted and not listening well. I had reserved with a personal card and handed the staff a business card at check in and said, please use this card. They used my personal card instead of the card I handed them. Then I found a charge to the credit card that was an error and had to get it reversed at the front desk. The person was new and couldn't do the transaction. He called over the other person to help. She looked and said she would do it and moved over to her computer. Before I could step over to her she started helping someone who walked up after me and left me standing there in the middle of helping me. I felt it was rude and poor customer service. The staff who wasn't able to do my transaction had no one at his counter. The lock on the door in our room didn't work but a maintence worker fixed it promptly. House cleaning staff knocked and walked into our room the second day after 11am and said we were late checking out. We told her she was mistaken and not to walk into our room without waiting for us to answer the door. Our check out wasn't until the following day. The parking is pay parking and security is on patrol so we felt our car was safe. The hotel itself was great and in a convenient location for us but the staff seemed a bit unorganized. Not the usual excellent service at Holiday Inns I've experienced."
