The 7 Best Kid Friendly Hotels in Nashville

Nashville makes for a fun city break with the kids, with an excellent choice of museums including the Taylor Swift Education Centre and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Several also offer free entry for children while many of the honky tonks welcome kids for live music before 7 pm. The city has a world-class selection of hotels, however, some are better suited to families than others. Our hotel experts have scanned the length and breadth of the city to bring you a collection of the best kid friendly hotels in Nashville selected on their location, amenities, service, and design. Whether you want a well-equipped apartment for an independent stay, a luxury hotel with a kids club, or a laid back boutique packed with character — there is something to suit most tastes here. So why not browse through our collection to start planning your next city break?
