What guests think

At Kimpton Aertson Hotel by IHG, travellers highlight stylish, modern spaces and very friendly staff, a walkable Midtown location near Vanderbilt with easy access to dining, and appreciated perks like the rooftop pool, spa, morning coffee, and nightly social hour.

However, reviewers also report inconsistent housekeeping with skipped service and worn linens, and occasional maintenance issues like weak air-conditioning, plumbing noise, and lingering odors. Parking is considered expensive and sometimes inconvenient, the rooftop pool can be cold or temporarily closed, and downtown is a short ride rather than an easy walk with some ambulance sirens audible near the hospitals. Overall, it suits travelers who want an artful, amenity-rich stay outside the downtown bustle.

The pool server was sitting on a lounger reading a book & eating ice most of the time. She did not check on us once. We had to go to her to ask for a drink and bring all our empties to her. She was friendly however whenever we did ask her for something. But not great service.

Our hotel room (both times) had hair in the shower and on the bathroom floors. Carpeting was also dirty. Shower grout was moldy. General areas looked like they hadn’t been maintained over time. Dirty, scuffed, broken, unkempt. Trash at front entry. Dining service was okay. Waiter nice, but didn’t clear table without being prompted. Door to balcony in our most recent room was wide open upon entry and would not lock which would have been very unsafe had it not been for our kids being older. Pool was not open.

We chose the Kimpton Aertson Hotel based on positive reviews and location while our daughter attended a nearby academic program. The hotel is nicely decorated and feels refreshed, and the staff was friendly. However, we were disappointed by the lack of follow-through on basic service. The in-room card stated linens are changed every three days unless placed on the floor. During our 8-night stay, our bedding was never changed—even after we called the front desk to request it. Housekeeping also skipped our room four times. Each time we called for fresh towels, we were told they’d be sent up shortly, but we had to call again after waiting over an hour with nothing delivered. When we mentioned both towels and the unchanged bedding on our second call, we were asked if the “Do Not Disturb” sign was up, which it wasn’t. We were consistently out of the room from 9 a.m. to 4–5 p.m. Despite this, we were told housekeeping marked our room as cleaned—when it clearly wasn’t. The bedding itself had holes and stains, and a personal microfiber cloth I brought was mistakenly taken with the linens. For the nightly rate, we expected basic housekeeping needs—like clean towels and linens—to be met without repeated requests. This experience made us question overall service oversight and attention to detail.

Every single person we interacted with was very welcoming, helpful and friendly. Very nice to our dog as well! The room was nice EXCEPT, it only had a single chair in it, so there was no place for 2 people to sit. The chair looked like an afterthought - maybe an old kitchen chair? didn't match the room at all. Bathroom was very nice. Modern, gleaming white, very clean, nice towels. Location was good. Close to several places to eat, bars, good places to walk the dog. Not a bad walk to Broadway action.

Overall, this hotel is very nicely done. I would likely stay there again, but only if a few things were addressed first. The condition of the mattresses and the pillows are long past needing to be replaced. I have stayed in dozens of 4-star and 5-star hotels on 3 different continents, and the bedding here simply does not match up. The linens themselves also leave a bit to be desired. The remainder of the hotel is very clean, well-designed, creative, luxurious and unique. However, the main purpose of a hotel, a place to sleep/rest while away from home, has not been kept up to the level of standard that I have come to expect from an IHG/Kimpton property.

An extremely beautiful hotel just a short walk from the university and a short drive from Broadway. Overall had a lovely time, the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Rooms did get a little stuffy at night, but the staff brought us a box fan and that helped keep our room cool the rest of the time we were there.

Very safe. And the room, WOW! We had a small balcony and loved opening and hearing the traffic below, although is not a very busy street. The bathrooms were my favorite, amazing decor, the windows had a really cool design. We loved our stay!

Overall, our stay at the Kimpton Aertson was great. The hotel's proximity to Broadway, good food, and other Nashville attractions was unbeatable! Very convenient! The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Our only struggle was with some of the hotel staff. We requested towels to be brought to the room one morning, and the towels never came. After multiple calls to the front desk while waiting to shower, they finally admitted it would take 2 hours to complete our request for 2 towels. In that same conversation, we also requested to have the room cleaned while we were gone. That message seemed to not make it to the housekeeping staff either. A little more transparency from the Front Desk staff would have been appreciated instead of telling us, "Yes" or "Ok" and then having nothing happen.

From the get go it wasn’t the best experience. The young man at the check-in counter tried to charge me for the room again after I already paid for it, and he did not really explain anything which left us with a few questions (When is checkout? Where can we get additional water? How to order breakfast? The basics.) The bedding had a quarter sized grey mark on it but other than that everything was pretty clean. There are two bottles of water in the room for $6 each, after that there are bottles in the lobby for an additional $9 each (seemed excessive to us).

First time to Nashville and we LOVED staying at the Kimpton. Hotel is beautiful, so good for those looking to stay a short drive 6-7 min drive from the actual strip. Would highly recommend for anyone that’s looking to stay away from the insane level of noise on the strip. Hotel still has plenty of great restaurants in walking distance, the noise level throughout our stay was so quiet and pleasant. Complimentary happy hour with beer, wine and cocktails from 5-6 everyday was also an awesome treat! Would love to stay again!

The property is nice, and the hotel common areas and rooms feel upscale. Like all hotels in Nashville, parking is completely ridiculous at $50/night. I did wish there were more amenities in the room. There isn’t much free/opem storage, especially in the bathroom. Lots pf wasted space in closet because of no shelving. There is absolutely no coffee service in the room, no tea kettle/hot water, no mini-bar snack options (small selection of beverages in room fridge) very limited for purchase in the lobby, and nowhere other than the co-located restaurant to get a decent coffee, and though the service was fantastic there, especially from the hostess on Sunday morning, there aren’t options for a quick pastry/snack other than ordering to go food.
