HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS & SUITES NASHVILLE SOUTHEAST - ANTIOCH BY IHG, Nashville

The hotel sits off Interstate 24, providing a direct 15-minute drive to downtown Nashville and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Nashville International Airport is 11 km away. The location is very convenient for highway access, making trips to Franklin, Murfreesboro, and the Tanger Outlet mall (nearby) easy. While walkable to fast-food options and a gas station, the immediate area is car-oriented with aggressive panhandlers reported at nearby intersections. For those without a car, the area has a free hotel shuttle service.

The hotel has undergone a full renovation, leaving rooms with a fresh, modern feel. All rooms include a microwave, small refrigerator, Keurig coffee maker, and a flat-screen TV. The beds are widely noted for being extremely comfortable, with plush pillows. Suites are spacious and some feature a jacuzzi tub or a pull-out sofa. Bathrooms are a highlight, often featuring large walk-in showers or accessible roll-in showers. Rooms on higher floors and away from the elevator are quieter, though rail noise is minimal with no horn blowing. Some rooms have been noted to have less consistent air conditioning or hot water pressure in the shower. Choose a King Suite for a dedicated living area with a fold-out sofa.

Breakfast is included in the stay and offers a generous spread. Options rotate but consistently include eggs, sausage or bacon, pancakes or omelets, yogurt, fruit, cereal, cinnamon rolls, and coffee. The breakfast area is spacious and clean. While the variety is good, the quality of hot items can sometimes be basic (using pre-cooked eggs) rather than fresh-cooked. The area around the hotel has several fast-food chains within a 1 km walk and many full-service restaurants a short drive away.

The indoor swimming pool is heated and open year-round, with a shallow end and towels provided. It is a practical, well-maintained space, though it is basic (e.g., no bathroom directly in the pool area). The fitness centre is compact but includes several pieces of equipment and is open 24/7.

The hotel offers a wide range of free services. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Free private parking is available but requires a reservation. There is also an electric vehicle charging station. The 24-hour front desk can assist with luggage storage (for a fee), express check-in/out, and a free area shuttle. Guest laundry is available 24/7 for $1.50 per load. Pets are allowed with a one-time $50 fee. Cribs and rollaway beds are available upon request. The property is wheelchair accessible with features like grab rails and accessible parking.
