"Opryland Hotel, Nashville (new..." Tennessee Things to Do Tip by Don_Wright

Opryland Hotel, Nashville (new photo from recent trip).
The absolutely most beautiful hotel complex, that I have ever been to in the USA.

When I first went there, I had to pay four dollars to park, just to go in and see the place. Well I wasn't too happy about that, but after I went in, I was so amazed, I spent three hours just walking around and admiring the sights. You have to see this place, if you are in Nashville. The inside is a huge atrium, and the hotel rooms are built around it. Walking through the atrium, there are shops, restaurants, etc. And all the time, you are looking up at the glass dome which covers the atrium. And the hotel rooms which are built around the perimeter, have views to the center or atrium. Also, there are very, very, large ballrooms and conference rooms around the perimeter. And, there is a canal waterway with tour boats in the atrium. Totally awesome!

Directions: Opryland Complex, Briley Parkway, just north of the Airport, on the east side of Nashville. 2800 Opryland Drive. (615) 889-1000.
