Best Western Plus Nashville Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very nice and the hotel was really clean!"

BNA Suites

10/10 Excellent

"I love, love , love this hotel! I travel from my job I’m usually gone half the month so I spent a lot of time in hotels and this place may become my Nashville hotel the room was affordable and I booked it last minute so I can’t wait to see what it will be if I book in advance it was near things food what not stuff I can get to John at the front desk it was very friendly and easy to deal with to check in was an absolute dream it literally took under two minutes I recently had a spectacular late bad experience in Florida where it took half an hour the room was exactly the way it was pictured it was clean the bed is a real bed not sponge I will be back and I highly recommend this hotel"

Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center

8/10 Good

"I liked the decor of the property. They were already decorating for Christmas so it looked very nice especially at night. The "Waterpark" is too expensive for what you get, but the kids love it. The place is always packed with people especially those attending conferences. Rooms were clean but those beds are not comfortable at all. Staff was helpful when asked questions except the lady at the concierge on Friday morning. She did not seem knowledgeable at all on the golf side. There is a mall next door so that's a plus."

Radisson Hotel Nashville Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Shower drain was not working well in our first room, were upgraded with no problems, friendly staff. But our next room was also having a similar issue, although not so bad as the first room. Otherwise very clean hotel good amenities, comfortable bed, nice towels lots of shampoo body wash conditioner provided."
