About Millennium Maxwell House, Nashville

Since the 1860s, the Maxwell House name has epitomized Southern elegance and hospitality in Nashville. In many ways, the continued existence of a Maxwell House hotel after more than one hundred years of change and a variety of calamitous events, including the Civil War and a 1961 fire that claimed the original structure, represents a perseverance and respect for traditions that defines the community. While the hotel�s appearance and site are no longer the same, the vision of providing a remarkable and welcoming �home away from home� for Music City visitors, ranging from inventor Thomas Edison to award-winning singer Alicia Keyes, has never faltered.

As current caretaker of the Maxwell House Hotel legacy, Millennium Hotels and Resorts has invested considerable time and money to preserve, and improve, upon this Nashville institution. The property has recently undergone a complete overhaul of its 289 guestrooms and suites, the renovation of corridors and upgrades to the pool area and fitness room.

Located in the Metro Center Business Park, the Millennium Maxwell House is just five minutes from downtown and offers fantastic views of the surrounding city. Guests can take advantage of free, scheduled transportation to the airport and a number of top entertainment, dining and shopping attractions. Additional highlights include Praline�s restaurant, which offers casual dining in a welcoming and authentic Southern setting, Maxwell�s Lounge, 16,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space for up to 1,000 guests, including a 10th floor ballroom with 20-foot ceiling and two lighted tennis courts.
