Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Nashville
For the majority of travelers, Nashville International Airport (BNA) is the clear primary choice, as it is the only airport situated within Nashville itself, offering direct, economical public transit via the WeGo Route 18 bus, along with abundant taxi and rideshare options that reach downtown in about 15-25 minutes. All other airports on this list serve neighboring cities and are significant distances away. Huntsville International Airport (HSV), located in Alabama, primarily handles regional domestic traffic and necessitates a private transfer or car rental for the roughly 2-hour journey to Nashville. Similarly, Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) offers limited regional connectivity and requires substantial road travel time. Northwest Alabama Regional Airport (MSL) and Daviess County Airport (OWB) are general regional facilities that lack direct public transit connections to Nashville; these should only be considered if flight availability or pricing provides a compelling reason. Travelers should prioritize BNA to avoid the high costs and logistical complexity of long-distance ground transfers.

I brought my daughter to visit Vanderbilt University, and this hotel truly impressed me with its top-notch facilities and excellent service. Its convenient location was a huge plus, and I especially appreciated having a gym for my workouts. The only minor downside was the breakfast, which was a bit too simple, though it still met our basic needs. Overall, it's a fantastic hotel with great value for money. I'd definitely stay here again if I have the chance.FromUS$201

Beautiful scenery! Many kid friendly activities (that are all overpriced) but my 4 year old loved it!
Down was our room was surprisingly disappointing, with a temperamental shower and limited storage space for our clothing. They compensated us for noise when I complained about the 3AM maintenance happening outside our window.FromUS$419

The hotel is in a good location, close to Vanderbilt University, with acceptable hardware facilities, swimming pool and gym, and laundry room. The service is very poor, especially the room attendants are all Hispanic, do not understand English, and the work attitude is not serious, often forget to clean the room, or forget to put the daily hygiene products and coffee boxes, after the front desk complaint, no one manages, It is the worst experience I have ever encountered since I stayed at the hotel. The deposit at check-in has not been refunded so far (it has been 2 weeks).FromUS$158

Sometimes they neglect to clean, and sometimes they don’t change towels after cleaning. One time, they even took away all the towels and only left one... The front desk staff was also very strange. Uber Eats doesn’t allow people to go upstairs, but in fact, everyone can go upstairs at will and no one cares. Only when Uber Eats goes to the front desk to ask, will they suddenly tell Uber Eats that they are not allowed to go upstairs... I don’t understand what the meaning is...FromUS$127

I had an excellent stay at this hotel. The gentlemen working valet were outstanding—professional, attentive, and incredibly helpful throughout my visit. They managed my needs seamlessly while also handling several demanding guests with grace and efficiency. Their level of customer service was truly impressive, and each of them has a bright future in hospitality.
The room was meticulously clean and exceptionally well maintained, which made my stay even more comfortable.
One unexpected highlight was the water. As someone who frequently visits Nashville, I've often had issues with the local water. Whatever treatment is used typically irritates my skin and can even make me feel unwell, to the point that I usually use bottled water just to brush my teeth. To my surprise, the water at this hotel was wonderful. I experienced none of the usual issues and was able to use it without any discomfort. It may seem like a small detail, but it made a significant difference in the quality of my stay.
I would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Nashville, TN.FromUS$479
