Music City. The Athens of the South. We’re headed to Nashville, TN. And we couldn’t be happier if we were sitting in Centennial Park, eating Prince’s hot chicken, and listening to some Johnny Cash on WSM radio.
Set along the Cumberland River, Nashville is home to a number of colleges and universities (including Vanderbilt), and is the Tennessee state capital. It’s also a center for the healthcare, publishing and banking industries. But you can bet your Minnie Pearl that most folks know it for one thing: music.
From Hank and Patsy, Elvis and Dolly (music stars so famous their first names are all you need to hear), right on up to rock ‘n’ rollers like Jack White and The Black Keys, Nashville has been at the center of the American music industry for decades. In fact, according to one study, Nashville has the world’s highest concentration of people working in the music industry per capita.
And once you write and record it, you have to play it, so Nashville offers more than 120 live music venues, too.
But this city of 635,000 is home to more than just titans of the recording world; it’s also home to Titans of the NFL variety. There’s also a lively performing and visual arts scene, Andrew Jackson’s historic Hermitage, and a full-scale reproduction of the Parthenon, complete with a 42-foot-tall statue of the goddess Athena. As well as iconic country-music destinations like The Johnny Cash Museum, the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium, and the Country Music Hall of Fame. And GooGoo Clusters. We can’t forget about GooGoo Clusters.
Our new Nashville hotel is being built from the ground up, adjacent to Vanderbilt. And like the city around it, will be a mixture of modern and traditional architecture. The 17-story compound will also be a mix of retail, upscale apartments, and our full-service hotel with a restaurant and bar, all designed green to strict LEED specifications. Look for the 180-room hotel to open early 2017.
It’s going to be a little bit country, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll. So like Waylon Jennings, you can call us a Nashville rebel, too. Because we’ve got things to do and things to say in our own way.

So happy to hear you are coming to Nashville! We love staying at Kimpton hotels…Nashville is wonderful!
Thanks, Diane … we’re excited about it, too!
Hooray!! I’m a Nashville girl and a Vandy grad who sadly moved away about 5 years ago. I’m back to visit frequently, and have wished for a Kimpton in my home town. The Vanderbilt area is a great choice. I can’t wait to see the finished product and make it my home away from home.
Woot! That’s seriously music to our ears, Susan. We’re pretty excited to come to Nashville; can’t wait to see all the great things this city has to offer!
This is great news! Welcome to Nashville. Other than the Vanderbilt location…is Kimpton up for additional locations in Nashville as well?
We’re definitely keeping our fingers crossed for additional locations in Nashville, Courtney! See you in Nashville soon. 🙂
This is SO EXCITING. Can I be the first to stay there? 😉
We’ve all been awaiting the arrival of Kimpton. Since we’re often in Nashville for work & play, how can we find When the Hotel will first be welcoming guests?
You know how when you’re a kid and it takes forever for your birthday to come around? Well it’s sort of like that. Our Nashville hotel will begin welcoming guests in 2017.
Very excited that you are coming to Nashville!! I have been disappointed not to have a Kimpton in my hometown (Memphis) or within a reasonable long weekend drive to some great southern cities (Nashville, Atlanta, Birmingham, New Orleans, Louisville, St. Louis, or Little Rock). I hope you add more mid-south cities soon (and my canine baby seconds this request).
My daughter is graduating form Vanderbilt in May, 2018. Can we get a reservation now?? Seriously, LOL.
Hi Marie, love how you’re thinking ahead! Reservations aren’t open quite yet but do check back on kimptonhotels.com. Happy (super early) graduation to your daughter!
Great to hear. Having worked in the hotel industry in San Francisco & Las Vegas for the last 13years, I am familiar with your brand. Nashville needs full service hotels, and that location is perfect. I drove by it today and that area is coming together. All visitors and locals will be in for a treat. Cant wait to see the finished product.

My humans are super excited to hear Kimpton is coming to Nashville, and so am I. We can hardly wait to take a staycation once you open! Kimpton does dog-friendly better than most; I especially loved all the dog amenities I received staying at The Eventi (I even got a commemorative leash!) and Hotel Monaco n Portland. My humans tell me we are staying at The Brice in Savannah sometime soon. Two Paws Up, Kimpton. Do you know what your name will be? Mine is Scout.
Hi Scout! Thanks so much for the Kimpton love. We <3 our four-legged guests just as much as our two-legged ones. We're working on a new personality for the hotel that makes sense for its location, can't wait to make an introduction soon!
I am a former Kimpton employee and was interested in how to apply for a position for this hotel.
It looks like it is going to be a beautiful property!
Hi Tatiana, we’d love to have you with us in Nashville! For all the latest positions at our up and coming locations just check out: https://www.kimptonhotels.com/careers
I. Can’t. Wait !!!
Love Nashville! Love Kimpton !!
Nashville is my first choice for relaxing, fun getaways and I go often. So happy to know I now have a familiar, comfortable place to stay.
Pls let me know when reservations will open up. I would love to be one of the first to stay in this beautiful new hotel 🙂
Cheers!
I would like to book rooms 9/30-10/2/ 2016 in the new hotel. Will it be available then? If not, is there an alternative? It is my husband’s reunion. 12 couples want to stay. We are having a special dinner event at Giovanni’s on 9/30. Thank you.
We’re still a ways off from being able to take reservations for our upcoming Nashville hotel. Bummed to say we have no alternative Kimptons in the area, Monica.
I am so happy your coming to Nashville! I am a Kimpton junkie and am planning a stay with some girlfriends next year, 2016. When do you plan to open???
We can’t wait to start spreading the #kimptonlove in Nashville! We’re hoping for an opening in late 2016. See you there!
Always look for Kimpton first…hope we can stay for Vandy graduation in 2017. Sorry you weren’t here for the other three years!
Hello,
I am a huge Kimpton fan! I’m thrilled you are coming to Nashville and wondering when you will expect to begin your search for Director level marketing, event, and sales positions for this property?
Thanks!
Hi Lauren, thanks for the warm welcome! Open positions will be posted as they become available on our careers portal here: https://www.kimptonhotels.com/careers. Thanks for dropping us a note!
Hi, Congratulations with Nashville…would like to book on and around August 21, 2017.

I believe in Kimpton Karma!
And I just hosted a spectacular dinner party by the pool at the Phoenix Palomar.
I am so excited about helping you get all the business when you open here in Nashville. As a life long Tennessean, I will be sharing your story with all the groups I support.
And I can give you names of sensational, local sales people and F&B managers we should poach from other properties. 🙂

So I was hoping you could give me an update?

Please keep an eye on the website, which will be updated soon. We hope to see you there, if not this time then on a future trip!
I’d like to get a quote for a conference. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for the inquiry, Dave. Please feel free to contact the hotel directly for more specifics.
I am looking at having a meeting in Nashville for our nonprofit – about 120 people for 3 days/nights. Would prefer to have everything on-site – having people stay at a hotel that has conference rooms to accommodate break out sessions. We are flexible for many dates between end of April to mid May.
I am a frequent Kimpton traveler so would love to see if this might work – when do you expect to open?
Hi Connie, thanks so much! We would love to have your meeting at our Nashville hotel, but we are not yet certain of the exact opening date. Please stay tuned as we approach next year.
Do you expect to be open beginning of April?
What is the earliest you will be taking reservations?
Would love to stay there for a Music City vacation!
Hi Morgan, we expect to be open in early 2017 but aren’t sure of the date yet. Please stay tuned for updated details – we hope to see you in Music City!
Is there an updated date for your expected opening? I always prefer to stay at a Kimpton over all other hotels, would love to hold out for your grand opening rather than book somewhere else.
We don’t have a date yet, but please stay tuned to the Kimpton Aertson Hotel website for more info!
How’s progress? We’re eager to plan some time in Nashville and would love to stay in a brand new Kimpton there…
Any update on when you’ll be laying out the welcome mat, dog bowls etc for your loyal fans?
Thanks so much for checking in! Please keep an eye on the Kimpton Aertson Hotel’s website, which should start accepting reservations in the coming months. We can’t wait to see you in Music City!
