Top Franklin Hotel Reviews

Renaissance Nashville Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I appreciate the friendly and professional staff from our arrival to our departure. They responded to our questions with care and concern for our comfort."

Best Western Downtown Plus Music Row

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this hotel last minute knowing little about Nashville but decided to spend the night here while passing through. Upon first look, it appeared to be a bit run down, and it’s true this hotel is a little older and could use some updating, but if it keeps the price low, with the high level of cleanliness and attentiveness of the staff, I’d say leave it, there’s nothing wrong with having a slightly older building if it’s clean and the location is amazing. Also, the beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms are updated. We were able to walk all the way to Broadway and back without discomfort and I was surprised how quiet and comfortably we slept. I will definitely stay here again when I have more time and take in more of the nearby eateries, check out Music Row, and enjoy the proximity to everything in downtown Nashville. I’ll leave my car parked, with the $20 parking fee providing a safe and well lit space for me not to worry about it."

Omni Nashville Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My friends and I recently stayed at the Omni, and we had a fantastic experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. I would like to give a huge shout-out to Austin, the bartender in the main lobby bar. Having worked in the bar industry for over 12 years, I can honestly say he is one of the best, friendliest, and most attentive bartenders I have ever encountered. He truly made our last day memorable. After a series of delayed and canceled flights, we ended up staying much longer than anticipated, and Austin went above and beyond to make a stressful situation much more enjoyable. His exceptional customer service, positive attitude, and genuine hospitality did not go unnoticed. And thank you for the biscuits—I genuinely think they may have saved me! Austin is a real asset to your team, and I wanted to make sure his outstanding service was recognized. We will definitely be back and will be recommending the Omni to friends and family. ⭐ 5/5 experience. Thank you, Austin, for making a great stay even better!"
