Dolly Parton’s Songteller Hotel
- Location: Nashville, Tennessee, United States
- Why it’s notable: Dolly Parton’s SongTeller Hotel is one of Nashville’s most talked-about openings for 2026, pairing a boutique hotel with a dedicated museum, Dolly’s Life of Many Colors, under one roof in the heart of downtown. The 245 uniquely styled rooms weave Dolly’s songwriting spirit into the décor, and two on-site music venues — Parton’s Live and Jolene’s — will host performances and drinks just off Lower Broadway.
- Type of traveler who will love this hotel: Dollyheads.
- What’s nearby: The hotel sits steps from Broadway’s honky-tonks, live music halls, and bars, a short walk from historic venues like the Ryman Auditorium and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Walking the riverfront or catching a show at Bridgestone Arena are easy additions to a weekend stay.
- Opening: June 2026
