Charming hotel in safe neighborhood

On our recent trip from Little Rock, my son and I decided to break up the drive with an overnight stay in Nashville, and we chose The Russell. What really stood out to me was its boutique feel and the fact that they give back to the community - that felt pretty special. Even before we arrived, the hotel was great with communication, reaching out via text and email with parking instructions and the code, which was helpful since they don't have a concierge. Check-in was smooth and easy. I also appreciated the relaxed atmosphere in the lobby with people just hanging out. The decor of the hotel is really unique and vibrant, with pops of color and interesting artwork. My son and I were excited to get settled in and explore. Our room was just right for the two of us, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The complimentary snacks and drinks were a lovely and welcome addition. The hotel had a really calm and quiet atmosphere, and every staff member we encountered was kind. The little extras, like the photo booth and the complimentary coffee with their branded cups, added to the experience. Overall, our stay at The Russell was wonderful. It felt good to know that our stay was also contributing to something positive.

Unique and Cool

This hotel was converted from a church so you can see a lot of its past in the design/architecture. The stained glass windows in the lobby are beautiful. Modern and spacious, each room is different in size and color/design. Not far from downtown Nash and in a good neighborhood with food options.

This place is a way to experience modern dystopia in its fullest. A former community house of worship and celebration turned into a building with pretty glass and nice enough rooms, but devoid of all humanity. It is operated by electronic locks and security cameras. Beware the panhandlers and thieves you may encounter in the parking lot. Both were present on the night I was there.

Great stay at The Russell!

This was a nice stay, beautiful and interesting building. We never saw or heard any other people during our stay. Our room had a skylight to a skylight. There was a window in the ceiling of our room that opened up to the larger room where you could see out of the roof skylight. A little odd, but otherwise there would have been zero windows or natural light in the room. There was a remote control where it could be closed as well. Seems overall like a nice area, but our Lyft driver told us someone had recently been mugged nearby. We never felt unsafe, but it's good to keep in mind. There is parking across the street that we utilized with no issues. Fairly close to a lot of restaurants and bars, but I didn't want to walk it at night. Comfortable bed! Enjoyable stay for an overnight.

One of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever visited

I booked one night for my road trip and loved the design, the thought, the location- everything!! If you are in Nashville and looking for something different and designed - The Russell is your place. Plus, the neighborhood is so cool with things to do (coffee places, restaurants, etc.)

I will say it was a unique experience with no front desk. We only spent one night there but only saw one other person. Was like we had the place all to ourselves, which was great. Got text messages about everything and had no issues with getting into the building or our room. The room itself was amazing. My wife was on crutches after a surgery and needed to be on the first floor and we loved the room. She had no problems getting in and out of the building with the ADA ramp and it was just an amazing experience. Will definitely stay there again the next time we are in Nashville.

The Russell is a super short walk to The Basement East where we saw some music so this was terrifically convenient for us. The church is beautiful and our room, albeit quite small and snug, was quiet. We will stay again when/if we are ever back in the area.
