Undoubtedly, Nashville deserves the title ‘Music City’. The home of country music, this city is a Mecca where a tune seems permanently in the air. With several venues like Grand Ole Opry House, The Country Music Hall of Fame, and Ryman Auditorium, it’s music all the time here. Except, it isn’t all music as there are some things to do in Nashville that are quintessentially Southern. Savoring good old barbeque, for instance. It would be a blunder not to sink your teeth into this delicious bite. The city’s hip and vibrant locals work hard and play hard as well, giving Nashville a nightlife that’s intertwined with pomp and color. While the hotels with spas in Nashville are abundant, you might want to experience the party side of the city. Dive straight into this buoyant scene by staying in one of the best hotels to stay in Nashville for nightlife.
