Drift Nashville, a Member of Design Hotels

The pool and poolside tacos were great! The rooms were clean and the design esthetic was a cool desert vibe. The overall hotel was great, staff and food and my daily cold brew coffee! Def would stay again. The only negative was the area the hotel was located as astandalone with highway chaos.

Very cool hotel, everything done on smartphone, nice pool area. So. valet parking is $30, nice! Yet they charge $25 for self parking, when valet unavailable. In my opinion, not nice. But overall, i liked it!

Everything was great except for the $25 charge to park at the hotel.

Love the vibe. The decorations were so unique. Staff was extremely friendly. Drinks at the bar were great, as well as the coffee and breakfast at the cafe. Room was well stocked!

Hotel was super easy to find, within walking distance to the stadium. The pool was absolutely amazing and the bar service was fantastic. The only down fall was the $28 parking fee. For the price you pay to stay it should include parking as well.

Beautiful, modern facility with extremely friendly staff. Paying for parking was easy, and allowed for exiting and entering the lot. This made exploring Nashville extremely easy. It's right off of the free way, so it made getting anywhere no more than a 20 minute drive with traffic. All in all, a pleasant experience. - Make sure to plan a day to spend at the pool. It has a nice "resort" feel to it.

We stayed here almost a week. It’s a beautiful property and it’s a short drive to downtown Nashville. Rooms facing the freeway are a little noisy so I would recommend getting a room facing the city. We changed rooms and the city view room was so much better! The cafe and bar/restaurant on site are amazing. The pool is also really nice! I would highly recommend staying here and would love to stay here again soon!

Parking was super easy. Paid self parking or valet available. Self checkin was amazing, walked straight to room. Staff super friendly, excellent bar drinks. Staff wasn’t in ur face but there when u need them. Very much a boutique hotel. Pool area, sun room, and room itself very progressively styled and comfortable. Maybe the coolest sitting room I’d ever seen. We will definitely return!

This hotel was really cool! The decor was stylish, the bar was amazing, the Bar Tender (I did not get her name) was memorizing and interesting, the food was really good! The Pool and lounge areas we perfect. Next time I go to Nashville I would stay here no problem.

Really nice property. Only downside of that you have to pay daily for parking. Found that kind of odd for that kind of hotel.

Very clean hipster vibe. Friendly and accommodating staff.

The property was a old remodeled hotel. One side fronted on the freeway and was terribly noisy. Upon check in, we had blood stained sheets. No one was available to help clean the room. The next day, the maid service didn’t even come to clean up the room. The pool was loud and noisy as well.

I stayed for a work event at a nearby hotel, so I did not explore much. I was pleased with everything about my stay. Everything was very clean and the room very unique. I enjoyed the contactless check-in. Great stay.

Great housekeeping

Staff say “15 min walk”, it is not. It is a 30 min walk uphill on the side of a very busy road surrounded by garbage and abandoned suitcases to any nearby business. Walking this alone or at night is highly unsafe (coming from someone who usually walks everywhere on vacation). The property itself is very nice with modern design and a beautiful pool area. However, upon checking into our room, there were black crumbs in the bed. I value cleanliness and there were times while walking around the property when I was disappointed. As said before, the pool area is designed well. However, there are never enough towels. On two separate occasions when I went to the pool, there were zero towels. Other things to note: no phone in room, reliance solely on your personal cell phone for contact No safe in room.

Beautiful property. Was a little grossed out with the amount of hair in the shower that was not mine, but other than that great stay.

As soon as you walk in the ambiance of the hotel is amazing. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful, always having a smile. When we made it to our room I loved the boho/industrial feel and it was very clean! Housekeeping came right around 11:00 but we just needed a few more minutes so she smiled and did not make us feel rushed! We will definitely be staying here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Drift. It was very clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Loved that it was close to the action. Would definitely stay there again!!

What a great stay! The room was clean and modern, yet very simple. I appreciated the staff, they were all friendly and helpful.

The room had many things that were broken. There was holes in the ceiling, paint hanging off ceiling, scuffs on the walls. The carpet infront of the couch had stains all over it. A hole in the lamp light next to one side of the bed. Even the refrigerator wasnt working. They did bring a replacement refrigerator though which worked. The beds are very uncomfortable and the pillows are just awful. As soon as you lay on the pillow it becomes completely flat. We didnt get good sleep or rest here at all. Our necks and backs are hurting so much after two nights staying here, we couldnt wqit to go home. We didnt order food to the room so i cant comment on that. We did grab a drink from the bar inside and that was a pleasant . The best part of our stay was the staff here was exceptional.

There was no place to put anything and the lightning was bad, my husband couldn’t see to shave and I couldn’t put makeup on but the bed was very comfortable.

A very unusual property with a very nice team. Despite the description there is a wonderful on site team of helpful friendly people. The rooms are odd with unfinished concrete floors that the staff says are the final product. The bedding and towels are first class. Service is by request only but they will generously refill everything including water and Nespresso pods. The walk in shower is huge as is the weird sink in the bedroom - but it is convenient. There are no drawers or closets. Just an IKEA style metal shelving that was not really enough for our 3 night stay to unpack. Noise was the worst problem. A clue was the provided earplugs. The highway side has Jake braking trucks (look it up) 24/7. We moved to the pool side to get a noisy neighbor with late loud tv through the double connecting door. I might choose it again as the price to problem ratio was low. I'll bring better earplugs.

Hotel was clean room and our room was comfortable. The bathroom vanity had the worst lighting ever. Made it nearly impossible for proper makeup application. No extra seating or desk. Very minimal decor.

This hotel is a minimalist location. Check-in is done via text and so is checking out. When you check in the day before arrival you get a text with your room number and the key code. Make sure not to lose the text or you can’t get into room. Not sure how easy it would be to get that info if you accidentally delete the text. Our room had no place to put your clothes in with the exception of a couple of hanger and a chair you could throw our shirts over. So your stuff stays in your suitcase pretty much. Nothing is carpeted and the floors are all concrete so it is very very loud in the hallways when people walk and talk as they go past your room. Do not get a room with a “city view” it’s pointless. Also, if you end up with a room by the elevator, ask to get it changed. We didn’t ask for that but we should of, it kept us up at night. The pillows are horrible, over stuffed and huge…your neck will be in pain. No house cleaning unless you request it. It is close to the Titan’s stadium and downtown, but if you are planning on paying for parking it’s $25 for 24 hours, unless you park on the right side of the hotel on the street. Just be aware that unless it’s a re you are driving with insurance I am not sure I’d park for free.

We enjoyed staying at drift. It’s easy and convenient. The shower was awesome and the bed very comfortable. The only downside is the bathroom sink in the bedroom. I prefer a little more privacy but overall, great place!

The room looks like a jail cell. The room had cement flooring, door with inch gap so no privacy in bathroom, no where to put your clothes, and hard chair to sit on only. We spent 430.00 on the room with no comfort at all.

This is an older hotel that has been updated to a mid century feel. The decor is great, the lounge area is beautiful and relaxing and the staff is incredibly responsive and helpful. IMO The areas for improvement would be the lighting in the bathroom which is yellow and dark. Impossible to put makeup on in there and easily fixable with a lit mirror. The HVAC system is noisy and wall mounted beside the bed, blowing air down directly on you while you try to sleep. The location requires either a car or Uber rides but it’s well priced and as I mentioned - the lounge is perfect. We had a great experience at the Drift.

The beds were comfortable, had an abundance of pillows and the neighboring rooms were quiet. City view rooms are the best option to cut down on residual noise. (Highway across the street.)

Pros: close to downtown and easy interstate access, comfy bedding, spacious room, everything has been updated so it seems clean and in working order. Nice amenities that were eco- friendly, cartons of water in the room for us and an nespresso coffee maker with real mugs and glasses. The lobby and cafe/lounge area is very nice and cozy. Cons: Noise. There is no carpeting anywhere, rooms or hallways so all sounds echo and are super loud. They provide earplugs so they know it’s gonna be noisy. One of the two nights, our a/c kicked on and it sounded like an airplane was landing in our room. Not much storage, very minimalistic decor in the room and no closet so all your stuff is just out in the open and that kind of visual clutter is a problem for me. Not much hanging clothes space. Overall good for a couple nights but would consider somewhere else for a longer stay.

This is not the fanciest place I've ever stay, but the service made it feel like a 5 star hotel. I ordered take out before our concert and didn't get a fork with it. I sent the staff a text just asking if they had any available, and within 5 minutes they were at my door. Thank you for making this an enjoyable weekend. You guys rock!

Post-modern facility. Quiet. Minimal staff to assist, had to wait almost 10 minutes to reach a person after check-in. No microwave. $25/day to park in hotel parking lot. No chairs to sit in or table. Small eating area. Overall, the minimalist approach to staffing / customer service and parking turned me off on this hotel. If you don't mind the minimal service, it's fine.

Our stay was fantastic from the moment we walked in. Everyone, I mean everyone, was super sweet and very helpful. Bethany at the front desk at checkout was so helpful in suggesting when we get to the airport. The staff at the cafe were so pleasant and pleasing with every interaction. I would highly recommend Drift to anyone needing lodging in Nashville.

Wife and I stayed here for 3 days. In town for Metallica concert. Easily walkable to Nissan Stadium. As for the hotel, communication was excellent. Everything handled through text. Customer service was outstanding. Rooms were very clean. Comfortable beds. Huge showers. Nice onsite pool. Bar. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

Shout out to the girls in the front and to whoever is behind the scenes answering text (they might be the same people, lol). They were quick, helpful, and kind EVERY time I interacted with them. The text for support feature was a PLUS for me! Very convenient!

We were able to check-in and out before arriving. When we checked in we relieved an entry code which was easliy shared with everyone. No room key made it convenient for all. It was also a nice option to be in contact with hotel personnel through text messaging. Staff was very responsive and helpful. The only thing we didnt love about the room is that there wasnt and counter space. The sink was long and used all of the space that would otherwise be counter top. No space for grooming products was a bother. Overall, a great stay. The location was super convenient to Nissan Stadium! Would stay again!

Very poorly designed property. Location is in an industrial space. Nothing around. Security all the time. Low level finishing of rooms. Inconvenient amenities. New hotel, all service not up yet. All support is through text. So you family tells you, you text and communicate back.

Great hotel, interior is 10/10!! Staff couldn’t do enough for you and available on WhatsApp 24 hours a day. We switched rooms due to the noise from the highway and it was seamless thank you!! We will be back for sure, pool is a great size and comfy. Air con is perfect and beds are amazing!

What a great stay! The room was clean and modern, yet very simple. I appreciated the staff, they were all friendly and helpful.

Property is beautiful in a up and coming area. Close to Nissan Stadium. $5 Uber ride to downtown Nashville. Beds were beyond comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

The pool and poolside tacos were great! The rooms were clean and the design esthetic was a cool desert vibe. The overall hotel was great, staff and food and my daily cold brew coffee! Def would stay again. The only negative was the area the hotel was located as astandalone with highway chaos.

Great hotel - well-appointed and great attention to detail; very clean, check in super easy. WE knew the area was outside the downtown core and that we'd need to Uber in but it's only 10 mins to Printers Alley and a short walk to the strip so it was fine for us. We rated location as less desirable so other traveller would not expect to be able to walk to a nice cafe for example - the area is not conducive to that. If you know and are aware it's a great place to stay - very good value for money

The hotel on the outside doesn’t look like much. On the inside, it’s nicer. The room is a modern minimalist vibe, with concrete floors, low lighting etc. The staff is friendly and very accommodating. The biggest issue is the location. It’s literally near nothing. Even the locals advised me not to walk alone near there. I spent a lot on uber and lyft because there is nothing nearby. The hotel is very small, and quiet. The views are not wonderful, most of the views are of the highway. I really enjoyed speaking to the friendly staff, however, I would not return here simply because it is inconvenient to get to downtown, the opry, and printers alley which is what I wanted to visit while I was here.

Very nice new hotel right on main street so it’s easy to get right downtown.

For events at Nissan Stadium this is the best location.

20 minute walk to Broadway

Excellent hotel within walking distance to Nissan stadium. Staff very friendly and helpful.

This is a newly renovated hotel. The location is near the Titan's stadium in a desolation of vast parking lots and major roadways. It is not a walkable area. The interior of the hotel is like an oasis in this sea of desolation. The decor is 1950-60's mid-century modern with a twist of 70's velvet. The lobby, coffee bar, and lounge have a lot of seating areas making this a good place for small groups to relax with a cocktail or coffee. Dining is limited. This property does not have a full service restaurant. The menu is upscale bar fare with small-plate offerings. Some of it is quite good. However, the breakfast fare is limited and not good. The bartender was excellent and offered a variety of house cocktails and higher-end liquor. This is not your conventional hotel experience. Check-in is all on-line and people-free. We received a text notification letting us know that our room was ready and a door code for access. Self-parking is $25 per day tax. The concierge was a delightful young lady who was friendly, helpful, and talkative. We were on the 5th floor and it was quiet. The room decor is too spartan for our tastes. Floor is bare concrete. There is no closet, only a shelving rack containing the pod coffee machine, towels, and two rods for clothes-hangers. The toilet and enormous shower are behind a sliding door but the sink is in the bedroom. HVAC is a wall unit like a lower end hotel but it does the job. Bed was very comfortable.

Staff very friendly . Was disappointed with food choices available at Drift and no other options close .

I loved staying here!! I was having a terrible day after moving and having car troubles, and they let me move my booking by one day, without charging me. I stayed in a ground-floor room with a King bed. I was right by the pool, so I could walk out there easily and had easy access to the lounge/restaurant area. The drinks were delicious, as were the overnight oats and iced caramel coffee. It was a perfect way to unwind after a stressful day!

Everything was great. Easy check in and out. Staff friendly and accommodating. Clean and comfortable rooms and beds. Great atmosphere and the food was really good. Cute pool area to chill.

Love the vibe. The decorations were so unique. Staff was extremely friendly. Drinks at the bar were great, as well as the coffee and breakfast at the cafe. Room was well stocked!

This convenient is so convenient. Just an easy Uber to anywhere we wanted to go. However our room faced the highway, and boy was it loud. So that was a bummer. Rooms facing the pool would be ideal here. The pool was great! Wish they had the fireplaces going in the evening. Very limited staff. All restaurants were closed by the time we arrived at 5pm. I didn’t realize that when we booked, so plan accordingly if you come in after 4-5pm (seems like if checking is 4pm, there should be something available). Only bar was open. Loved the decor and lobby. Very few employees but they run efficiently with staff on hand.

Everything was awesome. Comfy beds, clean rooms, close to downtown or east Nashville. The only complaint is Drinks at the pool bar were to expensive, there’s no other way to explain that.

Loved this hotel! Wish they would have told me about the $45 extra parking during boooming. And also wish they had normal hotel breakfast offerings. Other than that great !

This hotel was really cool! The decor was stylish, the bar was amazing, the Bar Tender (I did not get her name) was memorizing and interesting, the food was really good! The Pool and lounge areas we perfect. Next time I go to Nashville I would stay here no problem.
