Top Vanderbilt University Hotel Reviews

Hotel Fraye Nashville, Curio Collection By Hilton

Hotel Fraye Nashville, Curio Collection By Hilton

8/10 Good
"Hotel was beautiful, staff was helpful and friendly. I would stay here again! The cafe coffee drinks were amazing! The breakfast food was good! Walking distance to the Cook Out if you are hungry late night! But if you want to get most places rent a car or you will spend more than $200 on Ubers. Only cons - Destination fee is confusing and annoying! The hotel charges you $25 per day, they give you a chance to buy stuff around the hotel up to $25 per day so you don't get charged the $25. Regardless if you buy or don't buy you will get charged the $25 destination fee. Super annoying and stressful during my visit. - I asked the front desk for water, normally front desk will provide guest with water. - Lastly pool opens at 8am, there were no clean pool towels until 11am. This was very disappointing!"
