Frequently asked questions about staying in Nashville

What’s the best neighborhood to stay in for a Nashville Airbnb?

It depends on your travel vibe! Stay in Downtown or SoBro if you want to walk straight to the Broadway honky-tonks. Choose East Nashville or Five Points for a hip, artsy vibe with indie coffee shops, vintage shopping, and craft cocktail bars. For upscale boutiques, famous eateries, and mural photo ops, head to 12 South or The Gulch.

Do I need to rent a car when visiting Nashville?

Not necessarily. If your Airbnb is in walkable neighborhoods like Downtown, SoBro, East Nashville, or 12 South, you can easily rely on rideshare services (like Uber and Lyft) to jump between districts. However, if you plan to explore nearby nature trails, visit historic estates outside the core city, or stay in a rural cabin, renting a car is a smart option.

How far in advance should I book an Airbnb for a group trip to Nashville?

Nashville is one of the top group travel destinations in the US, so high-demand properties (especially large homes with rooftops or pools) fill up quickly. It is best to book 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if you’re visiting during peak seasons like spring, summer, or major festival weekends.

3. Best for pool days near Five Points: the peaceful oasis

Neighborhood: East Nashville

4. Best for music history fans: the 1920s vintage cottage

Neighborhood: East Nashville, near Five Points.

For something a little different, you’ll love this vintage cottage near Five Points. It’s named Draper’s Cottage after Mr. Draper, who built it in 1912 for his family, and is currently owned by Appalachian Folk musician Jeni Hankins. Feel like you’ve stepped back in time (or into a movie) once you notice the walls filled with vinyl records and bookcases filled with vintage books.

5. Best for stays with a pool: the remodeled 1928 guesthouse

Neighborhood: Five Points, East Nashville.

Looking for somewhere clean, private, and equipped with its own pool surrounded by sun loungers? We have just the place. Immaculately styled, the guesthouse is constantly flooded with light, and to get to the bedroom you’ve got to climb up a ladder to the secret loft space. Spend your days lounging by the pool, or get out into the fantastic Five Points area, a cultural neighborhood full of restaurants, shops, and galleries. 

Rooms: 1 bed, 1 bath. Sleeps 4. 

Time Out tip: Grab a coffee and take a seat on the classic front porch for a slice of Five Points life, then hop a five-minute Uber to Broadway when you’re ready for the honky-tonks. Just know the pool isn’t heated in December, January or February, so plan accordingly if you’re visiting in winter.

6. Best for vintage history: the homely cottage

Neighborhood: East Nashville, near Five Points.

This is one of those Airbnbs that makes a trip worth it alone. Head out for a great night out in trendy East Nashville (or go a little further to the lively Five Points), and retreat here after for a cozy AF hungover Sunday, surrounded by patterned rugs, incredibly high ceilings, and tall potted plants. You’re also a short Uber away from Downtown, so you can get into Nashville’s honky tonk scene and tuck into delicious food. This is a seriously good spot for a group of four friends.

Time Out tip: Skip the crowded honky tonks for a morning and walk the Shelby Bottoms Greenway instead, less than a mile away and one of East Nashville’s best-kept outdoor spots for shaking off a big night. The guesthouse sits just behind the hosts' own home, so it's worth being mindful of noise given the setup.

7. Best for budget-friendly stays: the adorable cottage in Shelby Hills

Neighborhood: East Nashville, near Shelby Park.

We’ve fallen for this cuter-than-thou cottage big time, the way a 14 year old falls for Travis Kelce after seeing his picture online. Based in the east of the city, this super cute home offers photo op after photo op. Will you snap the perfect rows of terracotta plant pots? Or the colour pop shower curtain? The sparkling white kitchen? Or that lovely, enclosed patio with the birds-cage chair? Or how about all of the above? Get booking and then get snapping.

The perfect hidden oasis away from it all. 

Time Out tip: There’s no TV here by design, instead you get a Bluetooth speaker, board games and puzzles, so it’s worth embracing the disconnect rather than fighting it.

9. Best for stylish urban stays near Broadway: the industrial loft

Neighborhood: Downtown Nashville, near the Ryman.

This brilliant loft is right in the middle of the action, just two blocks from Broadway’s record stores, honky-tonks, bars, and food scene. And the space itself is incredibly cool too, with high ceilings, stylish furniture, wall art, and huge industrial-sized windows letting in swaths of daylight. And when we say wall art, we mean like the walls themselves are painted with huge murals, or featuring exposed brick and that oh-so-chic weathered paint. 

Time Out tip: Every stay here supports the host’s Rooms for Rooms programme, funding beds, showers and meals for people experiencing homelessness in Nashville, so you’re doing some good just by booking.

10. Best for glam group trips: the pink cowgirl home

Neighbourhood: Cumberland Heights, East Nashville.

Go pink or don’t go home, the owners of this pastel-hued house must have thought when decorating. The ‘Bubbly Cowgirl’ is, it’s fair to say, a bit of a love-it-or-loath-it deal. It’s basically set up a sort of hen party paradise, complete with a line of vanity stations (lightbulb mirrors, of course) ready for you and three chums to do your makeup at simultaneously. It’s so sugary it’ll make your teeth starting aching before you’re through the door. Which is all the more excuse to grab the bubbly to wash your mouth out.

Time Out tip: Quiet hours run 10pm to 8am here, part of a 10-home complex, and only the guests named on the booking are allowed to stay, no surprise extras. Save the loudest celebrating for the honky-tonks a quick Uber away, then come home to the glam lounge for the real photos.

Perks: Two Hollywood-style glam bars, garage game lounge with table tennis, Keurig coffee bar with snacks, in-unit washer and dryer, white-noise machines in both bedrooms.

11. Best for affordable cultural trips: the artsy abode

Neighborhood: Marathon Village.

Arty types, you’ll like this place. You’ll find this sweet little flat at the center of Marathon Village, tucked away within 100-year-old warehouse buildings, perfect for a cultural weekend away. It’s called Marathon Village because the car was designed there, by the way. But the interiors make this the perfect cozy escape, with quirky framed art all over the pops of colorful furniture, and the odd coffee table book to flick through. Perfect. 

Time Out tip: Close enough to the action but just far enough for a restful night’s sleep, award-winning restaurants, coffee houses and micropubs are a quick Uber away. Worth knowing before you book, the property doesn't accept guests who live within 60 miles of Nashville, and everyone staying needs to complete ID verification ahead of arrival.

Sleeps: One bedroom, two beds, one bathroom. Sleeps 4 guests.

Perks: Full kitchen with dishwasher, in-unit washer and dryer, dedicated workspace with ergonomic chair, single-level with no stairs, free on-site parking.

Price: From $203 a night.

Neighborhood: Music Row.

This is the ultimate getaway for music lovers, not only because of its location on Music Row but because it’s actually covered in hanging guitars. Oh, and the hosts call it the ‘Acoustic Retreat’.

This fantastic pad features a love seat, smart tv, funky chair, and hardwood floors, and is in walking distance of all the major spots. You absolutely don’t need a car. 

Time Out tip: Make sure to use the courtyard instead, complete with putting greens, a bocce ball court, string lights and Adirondack chairs, a lovely way to unwind before or after a night out. Free luggage storage and parking are both included too, handy if you’re catching an early flight after a late one on Broadway.

Sleeps: One bedroom, two beds, one bathroom. Sleeps 3 guests.

It’s the ideal place for a couples’ weekend break, surrounded by flowers, plants, and chirping birds, and with its own private porch. So combine cozy nights in with days of exploring all that the area has to offer—you’re just a short walk from Belmont, Hillsboro Village, and 12 South, and a little further along you’ll find Music Row.

But you might just choose to spend your time sitting out on the front porch drinking coffee and listening to the sounds of nature. Blissful.
