8/10 Very good

Great location

Hotel was clean and staff was very friendly. Only down fall was figuring out where to park/ valet. Then i was told it was $35, with fees and everything, it ended up costing almost $60 for valet parking.

Good value hotel near Vanderbilt

Overall nice hotel, friendly and helpful staff, good location. Good breakfast, free coffee anytime. Liquor taps (I didn't use because I always got back late, and they shut them off at 10 pm). Shower wasn't totally clean when I arrived, and valet situation is a bit awkward on busy weekends like college move-in (also pretty expensive) but those were the only small negatives in an overall positive stay. Had a great time.

Good stay away from the madness of Broadway

Fantastic hotel, breakfast was excellent every morning and exactly what was needed before enjoying the day in the centre of Nashville. Good location for midtown, Broadway is a short Uber away. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Can't fault hotel

HI Express Vanderbilt

New facility, good breakfast, very friendly staff, wish I could give higher rating, I like Holiday Inn Express. But our vehicle was broken into on first in the hotel parking garage. Spent next two days getting new window and cleaning up glass. Hard to feel safe after that. Housekeeping was spotty. Parking a real challenge, spaces too small and poorly designed. I understand they are going to valet parking which has to be better.

8/10 Very good

The front desk representative was weird, she had this vacant stare and seemed lost. She did not explain the parking facilities available around the hotel. Made me feel unwelcome. The valet parking itself was an excellent service. All the parking attendants were super helpful and efficient. This made the stay very enjoyable.

Great breakfast, very clean, coffee 24/7 at the lobby and you can buy beer. Clean pool. I will implement with the curtains and the blackout a window tinting.

:-)

Front desk manager was very welcoming, helpful, and nice. Bathroom/ shower could’ve been better. There was no body wash left in the container and the shower didn’t look like it was throughly cleaned. I always bring my own body wash, sprayed down the shower with bleach myself and I use shower shoes so it was manageable. The heated pool was warm not heated enough for the outside weather to enjoy it imo. Complementary breakfast was good, nice variety of options. Overall I’d stay here again when coming back to visit Nashville.

2/10 Poor

Valet parking was unavailable after we had already paid. No one from the hotel notified us or helped us resolve the issue and we got double charged for parking. Also they were out of towels when I asked for a clean set

100% Recommend

Probably some of the best staff I’ve encountered in a while, very kind and helpful, definitely went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The late check out was a saver as we had a late concert the night before. This is a brand new hotel, clean and comfortable beds. Rooms were quiet, well insulated from noise and with black out curtains. Nice neighborhood as it is one street over from the University. Many restaurants and businesses within walking distance. Located 2 miles from down town made it very convenient to travel, and kept ride share prices really low. As others pointed out, the parking situation if you have a car os not ideal, and at times the intersection becomes very congested as you are been dropped off.
David, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The property itself was nice, clean, and the staff were nice and hospitable. The parking, on the other hand, is what made this a frustrating and inconvenient stay. The website indicated onsite self parking for a fee. If you are traveling without a vehicle, it’s a good stay. If you are driving anything other than a Smart Car, getting into the parking area is going to be a challenge due to the limited spaces and tight maneuvering skills needed. If you do get lucky enough to get into a parking spot, you may have to get out of the car NASCAR style by exiting a window. If you don’t get a spot, you have to park on the street, which is paid parking. That in itself isn’t too bad. However, you can only pay for parking from 6am - midnight, but you cannot prepay for the next morning starting at 6. So you have to be up 6am to pay again so that you don't get ticketed. Make sure to remember your plate number so you don’t have to go down to your vehicle at 6am. I saw a few get ticketed for this. While I am an early riser most days, this really was an aggravation after getting in late from a concert the night before.
Kevin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful hotel, brand new, but I’m afraid the service was not ideal. The front desk was understaffed when we arrived which created a long wait to check in, and the phone ringing off the wall while the one poor worker was trying to help the people in front of her. Then, the workers in the morning didn’t even know what time breakfast was to start. We were told it began at 6:30 am and that is what the signage indicated as well. Because we needed to get in the road, we arrived promptly at 6:30, and several other guests were waiting as well. When I finally asked when breakfast would be served the front desk woman rudely told me that they were cooking it and it would be open when it was ready. Then while getting coffee, the cook/server man (who was very nice, by the way) came out to get himself some coffee. We had a nice conversation, and I politely asked when they would be serving. He told me that breakfast starts at 7:00 am. I told him that we were told 6:30 and that the sign also indicated 6:30. He looked shocked, looked at the sign to confirm and promptly went back into the kitchen area. We could not wait, so left and got breakfast elsewhere. I don’t fault the staff, other than the rude lady at the front desk in the morning. That said, communication and processes definitely need improvement.

4/10 Fair

Very little parking, was assigned an occupied room

Checked in just before 11pm on a Wednesday night. We were assigned a room on the 5th floor. Upon arriving at the room and opening the door, we were shocked to find bags and suitcases on the bed, indicating the room already belonged to someone else. Thankfully, they were not in the room. When we went back down to the lobby, the lady working the front desk seemed confused and said the room wasn't assigned. She gave a different room and that room was fine. Upon speaking with the manager in the morning, he told me that the room did indeed show occupied, and he wasn't sure why she gave us that room. He was sympathetic and did a good job of rectifying the situation, but if someone was in the room it could have been a very dangerous situation. My second gripe with this hotel is the extreme lack of parking. They have two very small garages, that are not gated or patrolled, so anyone can come and park there. Even if it was gated, I doubt there's enough parking to cover the 8 floors of rooms that they have. And if you have a large SUV or pickup truck, good luck navigating the garages, they are extremely tight. Our last night there, I had to park at the hospital garage a half mile down the street and walk back. I didn't see any signs saying I couldn't park there, but I didn't feel comfortable leaving my truck there. Not an ideal situation when you're spending a lot of money on a hotel. The hotel is brand new, so the rooms are fine and its clean.
