With two king bedrooms, a queen-over-queen bunk, and a queen sofa bed & 3 baths, this spacious stay is ideal for families and groups—whether you’re in town for a Vanderbilt or Belmont visit, a couples getaway, a business trip, or a music-filled Nashville weekend. You’ll be perfectly positioned near shops, cafes, music, top dining, and Broadway.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Music Row and Edgehill place you in the heart of Nashville’s creative energy, surrounded by historic recording studios, charming side streets, and an easy mix of local cafés, cocktail bars, and restaurants, all within walking distance. This area feels distinctly “Nashville” – polished but laid back – with quick access (about a 5-minute ride) to Vanderbilt, Belmont, and nearby neighborhoods like The Gulch, and Midtown.
Guests love staying here for the balance of culture and convenience. Broadway and downtown are just a short drive or rideshare away, while 12 South and Hillsboro Village are close for boutique shopping and dining. It’s an ideal location if you want a refined, comfortable retreat with a front-row seat to the city’s music scene and everyday local life.
Step outside and walk to some of the city’s most-loved spots: enjoy tapas at Barcelona, Mediterranean fare at Sadie’s, or one of Nashville’s best pizzas at Bella Napoli. Grab hot chicken at Hattie B’s Midtown, sip cocktails at the iconic Old Glory speakeasy, or start your morning with coffee at The Well Coffeehouse just around the corner. Yoga lovers will appreciate Shakti Power Yoga across the street.

Beautiful space and perfect for a family of four and grandparents! We enjoyed walking to the Well for breakfast each morning. The host was very accommodating and quickly responds to questions! The pool was perfect for the slow mornings. We were within walking distance to many fun spots! I would stay here again!

Perfect in Every Way!

This condo was absolutely perfect for our family of four! We love the fact that each bedroom had its own private bathroom, and thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities the property offered. We also loved being only a short Uber ride from all that Downtown Nashville had to offer, while finding peace & quiet at night! Our host was also amazing at keeping in touch & answering questions for us before, during, & after our stay! Highly recommend The Optimist at H&O Nashville!
