Graduate by Hilton Nashville

Graduate by Hilton is a themed hotel at 101 20th Avenue North, across from Vanderbilt and about 11 minutes on foot from Play and Tribe. It's a mainstream hotel with no gay-specific offer, known for a country-music theme and a rooftop bar. Google rates it 4.4 from about 1,200 reviews. Book ahead on Vanderbilt event weekends, when Midtown fills first. The Church Street bars close around 2am or 3am, so plan on a car home if you stay out.
