Nearby Places

Walking From Home2 Suites to Music City Center

Hilton describes Music City Center as approximately one block from the hotel, with a listed distance of 0.2 miles. This makes Home2 Suites convenient for visitors attending several sessions throughout the day.

1. Check your conference registration details. Locate the hall, ballroom, room number and designated entrance.
2. Leave the hotel at 500 Rep. John Lewis Way South. Follow the pedestrian route north toward Music City Center.
3. Use marked crosswalks. Watch for local traffic and temporary downtown street restrictions.
4. Enter through the assigned public entrance. Not every convention uses the same registration point.
5. Collect your badge if required. Event check-in can be in a lobby or room different from your first session.
6. Follow building signage. Music City Center has multiple levels and a large exhibition footprint.

Music City Center Floor Plan Basics

Save the room number listed by your organizer. Event floor layouts and temporary registration locations may differ from permanent building signage.

Nashville Airport to Home2 Suites: Taxi, Rideshare & Bus

Nashville International Airport (BNA) is approximately seven miles from the hotel according to Hilton. The property does not provide airport shuttle service.

WeGo Airport Bus: Step-by-Step

1. Exit baggage claim. At BNA, follow signs for Ground Transportation.
2. Find the Ground Transportation Center. Go to Level 1 of the Terminal 2 Garage.
3. Locate Route 18 Airport. Look for WeGo’s designated purple bus stop sign.
4. Pay the fare. Adult fare is $2; accepted methods include QuickTicket, eligible contactless cards, mobile wallets or exact cash.
5. Travel toward downtown. Route 18 serves the Elizabeth Duff Transit Center at WeGo Central, with additional scheduled stops.
6. Plan your final connection. Select a convenient downtown bus connection, walk or a short rideshare to 500 Rep. John Lewis Way South.

Pet Fees, Check-In, Smoking & Hotel Policies

Traveling With a Pet?

• Add your dog or cat to the reservation.
• Confirm your pet’s weight meets current property restrictions.
• Budget $75 for stays of one to four nights.
• Budget $125 for stays of five or more nights.
• Ask the hotel about pet-relief areas and unattended-pet rules.

• Service animals are handled under applicable accessibility rules.

What If You Arrive Before 4 PM?

Early check-in is not guaranteed. Contact the hotel about room readiness, baggage storage and any extra charge. If your convention starts early, carry your badge and essentials separately rather than depending on immediate guest-room access.

Accessible Rooms and Family Arrangements

Hilton provides accessible accommodation categories and property accessibility information. Guests who need specific features should select the appropriate accessible room and confirm the exact configuration directly with the hotel.

Call 629-255-0300 when you need confirmation of a particular accessibility feature before completing a reservation.

Nearby Restaurants, Entertainment & Other Convention Hotels

Home2 Suites is in SoBro, one of Nashville’s most walkable visitor districts. Many activities are close enough that convention guests may not need a rental car for their entire stay.

Home2 Suites vs. Hyatt House Nashville Downtown

Another extended-stay-style option in the SoBro district is Hyatt House at 535 Rep. John Lewis Way South. Both properties appeal to travelers looking for kitchen facilities, included breakfast and convenient convention access.

Our Hyatt House Nashville Downtown Convention Center guide explains the differences in room categories, kitchen arrangements, pet policies, breakfast and parking.

Group Bookings & Business Travel

When a Group Rate May Help

• Your organization needs multiple suite categories.
• Guests will arrive and depart on different dates.
• You need flexible cancellation or payment arrangements.
• Some attendees need accessible rooms or connecting rooms.
• You want breakfast and parking costs clarified in advance.
