Fairlane Hotel

Retro-Modern Comfort in the Heart of Nashville

Modern style meets vintage flair at the Fairlane Hotel, a boutique gem located just steps from Nashville’s iconic Broadway Avenue. Set in the heart of downtown, this sleek yet cozy hotel places you within walking distance of some of the city’s top live music venues, making it a prime pick for concert-goers looking to stay close to the action. With city views, locally-sourced snacks, and an inviting Southern restaurant, it’s a stay that hits all the right notes.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Fairlane Hotel is a dream base for music lovers. You’re just a 10-minute walk from both the Bridgestone Arena and the Country Music Hall of Fame, so there’s no need to worry about rideshares or parking. After the show, the hotel’s vibe stays mellow thanks to its boutique size—perfect for winding down. While check-in starts at 4:00 PM, the staff is known for being helpful and flexible where possible, and with a checkout time of 11:00 AM, you’ll have time to sleep off a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking to explore Broadway’s music scene
- Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list concert
- Couples making a romantic weekend of it
- Fans wanting a stylish and quiet spot to recharge
- Budget-conscious travelers who appreciate value in a central location

Food and Drink Options

Ellington's Restaurant & Bar delivers Southern-inspired meals perfect for pre-show dinners or lazy brunches. The hotel also features an on-site delicatessen and coffee shop—ideal for grabbing a bite before heading out. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the convenient food options downstairs and walkable eateries nearby make late-night cravings easy to satisfy. Breakfast is available, even if you slept through your first alarm.

Nightlife Options

While the Fairlane keeps things low-key on-site, you’re a stone’s throw from Broadway’s buzzing nightlife. Think live music bars, honky-tonks, and rooftop lounges—all within walking distance. Prefer something more relaxed? Head back to Ellington’s for a nightcap and a view of the city.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s location, calling it “perfect for seeing a show and walking home.” The retro-modern decor gets high marks for style, and the staff is frequently described as friendly and accommodating. Many love the quiet rooms despite being so close to Broadway’s bustle.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that parking is limited and pricey, so plan ahead if you're driving. Others note that while the vibe is stylish, it’s less full-service than a larger hotel—but that’s part of the boutique charm.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want to be close to the music but still enjoy a stylish, quiet retreat, the Fairlane Hotel hits all the right notes.
