Hotel Details

Location

In a quiet, leafy East Nashville neighborhood, the hotel is a short walk to local restaurants, bars, and a park.
The Russell is located 2 km from Nissan Stadium (roughly a 30-minute walk or a 5-minute drive) and 3 km from Bridgestone Arena. Downtown Nashville and Broadway are about 2 km away, easily reachable by a quick ride-share. The immediate area is walkable to several popular spots, including Butcher & Bee, Edley's BBQ, Smith & Lentz Brewing, and the Basement East concert venue. The neighborhood feels safe and residential, providing a calm retreat from the downtown crowds.

Accommodation

Spacious, uniquely decorated rooms with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and thoughtful amenities.
Each room has a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, free toiletries, bathrobes, and Dyson hair dryers. Room amenities include a tea and coffee maker, Keurig, complimentary snack basket, flat-screen TV with cable, safe, and individual climate control. Many rooms feature quiet street views, while some interior rooms have a skylight or no window. Room types range from double rooms to suites with separate living areas and kitchenettes. Beds are memory foam and widely noted as very comfortable. Noise from upper floors can be heard in some rooms; top-floor rooms are recommended for light sleepers.

Dining

Complimentary coffee, tea, and sparkling water are available in the lobby 24/7 from self-serve stations.
There is no on-site restaurant or bar, but the lobby has a Keurig, tea, and a sparkling water tap available at all times. A vending machine stocks snacks and drinks. The immediate East Nashville neighborhood provides numerous dining options within a 5-10 minute walk, including Sky Blue Cafe (breakfast/lunch), Butcher & Bee, and Edley's BBQ. For a broader selection, downtown Nashville is a short ride away.
