So far it looks like Nashville, Tn the middle of the week of July 20, 2008. So start saving and planning now.
What part of Nashville (downtown,North, South, ect.) would be good place to look for a hotel and eats for visiters?

I had started to look also. So that is why I sent out the SOS

Nashville's still good for us...we've been to a "get together" for another board there before. I was pregnant with son #1 at the time, but we still did the zoo, and some stuff in downtown Nashville--And July of '08 sounds good cuz I WON'T be preggers at the time!

Ok, ok...got here as soon as I could...
Not sure I could be as useful as db was in arranging for discount accommodations, but I'll do what I can. This came up in chat some time back, when Nashville was first being mentioned. At the time, I suggested a halfway decent Red Roof near my place, just off I-65 & not too bad an area, except for it's right across the street from the main CSX switching yard...I don't know if that's a good place to be unless you're used to the sound of lots of trains, as I am (I did put my half-sister up there, & she didn't voice any complaints, & she isn't the type to hold back if she's not happy with things). The big obstacle to finding places here is that Nashville is very much a tourist industry town, any place nice enough to put up my friends is likely to be a tad pricey, & I understand how that can be a real factor. That, along with the fact that I don't do a lot of hotel shopping in my own hometown, means I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to send everybody. I can assure you that there are a lot of places to stay here, maybe too many choices...Nashville has an unusual neighborhood geography, & one can go just a few blocks in any given direction & go from a "good" area to a "bad" one very quickly. I guess it may come down to what the visiting parties may want to do when they get here beyond the "meet all the Pixies" event...if anyone really cares about the Opry and/or country music venues (I certainly don't!) we might put people around the Music Row area or east side near the Opryland hotel, but that could be tricky too...
I'm on the south side of town myself, maybe just south of the city limits in Brentwood might be an idea...but there, like so many other areas in this town, traffic sucks
Let me keep working on it...

Thanks for the input Scotz, things to look for in a location would be easy to get to(from interstates and airport), parking for those driving and a good part of town. Since the hotels will not even except reservetion more than 12 months in advance there is no real big rush to nail down the exact hotel yet. Again thanks for any help with this.

I was looking at The Country Inn & Suites by Carlson by the airport. But I don't think they have a pool. They quote $89 for their least expensive room.

Barring any disasters or last minute crap uprisings, I'm totally down with this. Or I should say that it's doable and I just have to make sure that I'm equally as doable! I'll give a definite when next year swings around but for now, pencil me in between that and the "maybe" option!

That was my thinking exactly, SC...I just wanted everyone to understand how tricky finding the right combo of those needs could be in this town...then again, it may be that I've lived here so long I know this place *too* well, & I may be seeing warts where no one else would notice.

Hotel pools may be a vanishing thing, from what I can tell...Lots of places by the airport, & maybe the one of the better parts of town because of it...at this time, traffic is bad there because of a major construction project of Briley Pkwy., which doesn't seem to be coming to an end anytime soon...who knows, maybe next year it will be better...
