The Location: What’s Nearby?

The hotel is located at 6th Avenue & Peabody Street, placing you right between the two main hubs of downtown. Almost everything is a 5-15 minute walk.

• Broadway Honky Tonks: 2-minute walk. You are literally around the corner from the legendary spots like Tootsie’s, Rippy’s, and Luke Bryan’s bar.

• Bridgestone Arena: 3-minute walk. Perfect if you’re in town for a Predators game or a major concert.

• Ryman Auditorium: 5-minute walk. The “Mother Church of Country Music.”

• Country Music Hall of Fame: 5-minute walk.

• Nissan Stadium: 15-20 minute walk or a quick ride across the Cumberland River for Tennessee Titans games.

Amenities

• Fitness Center: 24/7 access with modern equipment.
