Omni Nashville Hotel
Located on 5th Avenue in the heart of downtown Nashville, the Omni Nashville Hotel has it all when it comes to having a great stay in the Music City.
With 800 rooms (including 54 suites), multiple restaurant and bar options, and a rooftop pool and lounge with stunning skyline views to boot, there’s everything to love about the Omni Nashville!
What makes this one of the best hotels in Nashville?
I could explain how great the Omni Nashville’s location is by pointing out it’s right across the street from Music City Center, and I would be right. But that has nothing on the fact that the three stories of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum are seamlessly integrated inside the building of the Omni Nashville.
That’s right – guests can check out of America’s most treasured music museums without even leaving their building!
