NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — She’s a country music icon, philanthropist and now the host of your next stay in Nashville. Visitors to Music City soon will be able to check in and experience southern hospitality the “Dolly way.”
Dolly Parton’s first Nashville venue, named the SongTeller Hotel, is set to open in spring 2026. General Manager Shannon Foster said this is Parton’s legacy project, and the legend has her hands all over it.
SongTeller is steps away from the music of Broadway, located in downtown Nashville.
“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.
According to the hotel’s social media pages, the Listening Lobby will be “where stories are sung and moments are made.” Parton’s Live will offer songwriter sessions and ticketed shows. Jolene’s, on the 11th floor with views of downtown Nashville, will offer dining, drinks and entertainment.
Also, covering the entire third floor is Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum. Foster said it will be an immersive experience for fans.
Construction crews are currently remodeling the interior to transform what was formerly office space into a pink and glittering escape.
“This hotel will truly represent Dolly and who she is and what she brings to this community,” said Foster.
