Dolly Parton's SongTeller Hotel opened Sept. 29 at 211 Commerce Street, steps from Lower Broadway, along with Dolly's Life of Many Colors Museum upstairs. Past the giant guitar out front, the hotel runs a set of experiences it calls SongTeller Originals. A few surprises at Dolly's hotel you won't find anywhere else:
9 to 5 Music Moments
At the top of every hour, a song from Dolly's catalog plays through the Listening Lobby and the spaces around it.
It's All Writing Hour
A creative writing and journaling session in the Listening Lobby. The hotel gives you the supplies, and you write your own hit.
- Good to know
- Writing Hour is part of the hotel's $25 nightly destination fee, which comes with every room booking.
Sunsets & Sequins Twilight Property Tour
An evening walk through Dolly's place: the first and second floors, the guestroom floor landings, and a sneak peek of her museum.
- Good to know
- The hotel doesn't post tour times online. Ask the front desk at 615-450-9600.
Sweet Dreams Turndown Service
A dose of Southern hospitality at bedtime, with sweet and savory treats that change by the day of the week.
