NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — She’s a country music icon, philanthropist and now host of your stay in Nashville. Starting in spring 2026, visitors to Music City are welcome to check-in and experience southern hospitality, the “Dolly way.”

“This project is truly Dolly’s love letter to her fans and a love letter to Nashville in particular,” said Foster.”
In addition to a total of 245 guest rooms and themed suites, there are three entertainment options: The Listening Lobby, Parton’s Live and Jolene’s.
“Dolly is known for her kindness, her warmth, her genuine hospitality, so what better way to bring that to life than in a hotel,” explained Foster.
Parton’s Live will offer songwriter sessions and ticketed shows. Jolene’s is on the 11th floor with views of downtown Nashville, dining, drinks and entertainment.
