I absolutely loved my stay at The Russell! From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place was something special. The building itself is beautifully restored with so much character—charming, colorful, and full of unique touches that make it stand out from a typical hotel. The room was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. I appreciated the comfortable bed, modern amenities, and little details like the local artwork and the convenient self check-in process. It all felt seamless and stress-free. The East Nashville location was perfect—close to cool restaurants, coffee shops, and a quick ride to downtown. I honestly didn’t want to leave! I’d highly recommend The Russell to anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind stay in Nashville with a purpose. Can’t wait to return!

I booked one night for my road trip and loved the design, the thought, the location- everything!! If you are in Nashville and looking for something different and designed - The Russell is your place. Plus, the neighborhood is so cool with things to do (coffee places, restaurants, etc.)

Easily the best shampoo conditioner and body wash of any hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Very unique hotel and awesome location/ dining options. If you have a bad meal in this area, your taster is off. I think the only drawback was that they allowed kids. I’m a family person, but this hotel shouldn’t allow small children. The walls were paper thin and you could hear kids running up and down the halls/ playing with the luggage elevator

I love the fact that this hotel helps the homeless. It is a very unique hotel. Very pretty. Our third floor sky light room was cute, a little tight but still very nice. Wish I would have known there was no elevator and that we were on the third floor, I would have requested a ground or second floor room. It was nice, however, that they do have an elevator for your luggage. That helped! Also the complimentary champagne and snacks and water were a very nice touch!
