Did a walk-through to see the Christmas lights before going over to the grand ole Opry for their Christmas special. Beautiful place, lots to see, looks like an amazing place to stay or dine with a lot of options throughout.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Nashville, Gaylord's Opryland Hotel. Everything was beautiful about the hotel and I am sure we only saw maybe 1/3 of it. I must say that we were very disappointed in the meals served in the main DR in the Magnolia Wing. We thought we were getting a Traditional Turkey Dinner on Thanksgiving Day but we got tasteless chicken, mashed potatoes and vegetable and a bagged salad with a cheese cake that was so plain. The meal was almost identical to the meal we had for the lunch the day before on the River Boat. It was not tasty at all and neither was the one in the big DR. Very disappointed in the meals that were provided. Also ate at one of the bars on Tuesday - I had upset stomach even after we got home and my friend missed one whole day of our 2 days in Nashville with uncontrollable bathroom visits. All in all very disappointed that a hotel of this magnitude would provide such poor meals! Read less

The place is very nice, but the prices are crazy expensive. They definitely ensure that they have a certain clientele. It’s beautifully decorated for the holidays. The staff is from all over the world, so you will find someone who speaks your language.

They make it clear upon check in that you are a hassle and they are totally indifferent to you staying but they do need you to hurry because there is a line.

They make it clear upon check in that you are a hassle and they are totally indifferent to you staying but they do need you to hurry because there is a line. If you are a Marriott elite and ask for an upgrade you will be met with an eye roll and a “NO”. In no way did I demand anything or was unpleasant. I simply asked if we got anything for my Platinum Status and was treated like an entitled jerk. Every inch of the hotel is packed. Walking around is a challenge. The lights are really gorgeous The throngs of people doing there insta poses everywhere take away from the experience. There is a long line everywhere. A long line to eat. A long line on the elevator to get to your room. A long line to get to the spot to get a good view of the lights. It’s just awful. You are paying top dollar for a very mediocre room and then you are receiving service from overworked, exhausted abrupt staff and walking around in elbow to elbow crowds trying to feel romantic. To quote the hotel check in associate “NO. Just NO” Read less
