Renovated in 2013, the Courtyard Nashville on West End is convenient to Vanderbilt and is only minutes away from the live-music scene in Downtown Nashville. Best of all, the hotel offers a free shuttle that takes guests anywhere within a three-mile radius of the hotel between from 7am–11pm. Rooms are amply sized, up-to-date, and decorated in warm earth tones. The roomy lobby comes with plenty of places to plug in and take advantage of the Wi-Fi, which is free. There's no full-service restaurant here, but there are lots of good options for a meal within easy walking distance.
