Over-the-top, kitschy decor that pays homage to country legends
White Limozeen rooftop bar is a destination in itself
Animatronic karaoke bar 'Cross-Eyed Critters' is genuinely unique
Resumo Rápido: It’s a maximalist theme park for adults where the vibe is 'NashVegas' 24/7, so don't expect a low-key stay.
Revisado por @HeatherSharp2768625: I stayed at the Graduate in Nashville and honestly, it’s a total vibe. The Dolly Parton theme is so fun without being tacky, and that canopy bed was super comfy. If you love pink and retro style, you need to book this for your next girls' trip.

No. The Governor's Pool is part of the White Limozeen bar and requires a paid reservation (often $50+ per person or a cabana fee) via Resy.
Is it walking distance to Broadway?
Not really. It's about a 1.5-mile trip; a quick Uber or a 30-minute walk, but you're right in the heart of Midtown's own bar scene.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it's pet-friendly with a non-refundable fee of $75 per stay (max 2 pets, up to 75 lbs).
Is there a gym?
Yes, a 24-hour fitness center with Peloton bikes and free weights.
Does the hotel have parking?
Valet only, approximately $55 per night. Oversized vehicles may cost more.
