I lived in Hawaii for 3 years and I went to very very nice hotels there, Hiltons and Hyatts. This hotel is better then any of them. Delta island was my favorite! The staff was very friendly and the room service was excellent! Our first stay while the Bell boy was taking our stuff up to the room he told us about the Christmas decorations they have there during the holiday season, and also told us the best places to see in Nashville! VERY FRIENDLY SERVICE!!! It is a 5 minute walk to the Opry Mills Mall and to The Grand Ol Opry. The grounds are amazing! The only let down for me was the pools but the entertainment was beyond amazing!

Big nice hotel with nice rooms. Lots of walking but I have stayed there before and knew the score. Was not expecting the delays getting into my room. 20+ minute delay in line at valet parking. 20+ minutes inline for checking. The line snaked back and forth like a ride at 6-Flags. Did the hotel not know I was coming? The agent was nice and cheerful but all in all the check in experience was terrible.

Check out from my short 2-day was similar except I chose not to endure the long snaking line. They can send the bill via Internet. Still, 20+ minutes to retrieve my car at valet parking.

Hotel room was nice and clean. I slept comfortably. Quiet too. Left the room for my conference meetings at 7:15am Saturday morning. Came back to the room at 4pm to nap before my 6pm event. Housekeeping was just opening my room. I was not impressed with the timing.

Now I am questioning my hotel reservations for an October concert. Opryland may not be worth the effort.

Opryland did an excellent job with conference facilities and meals. Evening entertainment was good too. Food was good too. Overall facilities were impressive and spotless. It would be a better place if they could address the checking and checkout issues. It is simply a matter of scheduling staff to meet the guest load. When any business values their time more than they value mine they lose my respect.

We didn't actually stay in the hotel, but I couldn't write a reveiw on ICE in attractions.

I have six kids under 9. We went down to Nashville for two days. One of the days we mainly stayed at the Opryland hotel. It being cold outside the kids LOVED walking around seeing the waterfalls and greenery that surrounds you INSIDE the hotel. There are dancing waters, trees, pleasant music, waterfalls, and it wasn't all that crowded. It has been a year and my kids keep asking to go back. The land scaping is beautiful and the food is reasonable.

ICE! on the other hand was quite expensive and very cold. ICE! is a diplay of ice sculptures that are colored and shaped to a theme that Opryland hotel puts on. 2009 was The Grinch. I had read about it and read that it was cold. I thought my kids would be OK because they have a pretty high tollerance for cold. Having just moved from North Dakota, but they were all miserable. It was fun to see, but we felt pushed though and very cold! And it was very expensive for the time and amount of entertainment it provided.

I have always wanted to stay here and they did not disappoint. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary and the staff was wonderful. Our room was clean and welcoming with an "anniversary treat" already waiting for us. There were plenty of great restaurants and venues at the resort to choose from and really no need to leave except to sight see in the city. Getting on the shuttle to downtown Nashville was super easy, even in the snow and the staff were very helpful in making the arrangements. The FULL breakfast bar the next morning was way beyond our expectations. We had tickets for breakfast and did not expect ALL the food that was included. There was so much happening as far as entertainment etc, but the room was quiet and you had no idea what was going on elsewhere. It was right after New Year so it was still beautifully decorated from the holidays. They seem to pay attention to every detail, from check-in to check-out.This hotel was a little pricey but well worth the money.

Nashville is an interesting place, let's start off with the airport and work our way through. Very nice airport, plenty of food, beer, and shopping to do in the airport. Also keep your eyes open for Country artists. I was right next to Trace Adkins in baggage claim (nice, down to earth guy) and it is likely you will see one too :)

The shuttle to the hotel from the airport is the way to go, there is a desk below baggage claim when you head down the escalator, it is reasonable and takes you directly to the Gaylord.

The Gaylord property is enormous, and it is also kind of an island unto itself, so going off property will require a taxi or use the free shuttles to get to the mall or the Grand Ole Opry, and back to the hotel.

The Gaylord has several restaurants, they are not cheap, but they are typically good. They do have sandwich, and pizza stands which are pretty reasonable and could be your go to's if you are on a budget. Better yet, you can walk (10 minutes) off property to a few restaurants that are nearby and quite a bit cheaper, and still pretty good. We went to the Scoreboard, which is acrosss the street and right behind Cooter's Museum for the Dukes of Hazard. Food is great, drinks are decent and they have music on certain nights.

The pool at the Gaylord is nice and the sun shines bright for most of the day, they have a bar and grille out there as well. Do not bother with the boat ride, it's ok but it's not real so...Walking around at night is very romantic and there are lots of little nooks and corners where you can just relax.

The sports bar is also fun and the food there is probably the most reasonable, and there are lots of TV's to view everything going on.

The Grand Ole Opry is very close by and is a MUST DO! We also took the backstage tour and got to see some of the artists as they were leaving and all the dressing rooms and sets they use for the show, you also get to stand on the stage and take pictures, etc. Very fun and informational. The entertainment was AWESOME. We saw the Henningsen's, Kix Brooks, and a few other legends.

Nashville has lots of talent and you can go downtown ($20 cab ride, which takes 12-15 minutes), and go to several bars, restaurants, and concerts. We went to Rippy's which is across from the famous Tootsie's (which is ALWAYS packed) they had great food, drinks, and some great musical talent. Rippy's and Tootsie's are right close to the Ryman Auditorium so you can eat and drink before or after the show.

We also went to Etch restaurant downtown, and it is excellent. The Butter Tasting is a must try appetizer.

All in all a great trip, nice people around the area, and if you like music you will never get enough...plan your trip if possible around a great concert and it will make it even better. Enjoy Nashville!

there are buses and such but for the Nashville area - just use the Uber. In Nashville, those are fairly safe and kind locals - it will be fastest and the easiest! with no car, getting in and around Nashville is TERRIBLE if you don't know the ins and outs! use the Uber (I've never used Lift) those guys will know how to get you to where you want to be!
