Does anyone know of a NICE hotel in the area for the meet in Nashville? I've gone two years in a row and I still don't know the area well enough to find something close and nice.

Suggestions?.........thnx :dblthumb:

I'm trying to attend Nashville, so this information would be appreciated by me as well. NICO doesn't take over some hotel like all of the other meets?

Whoa, relax Stacey. I know I look good, but my modeling kick-backs aren't enough to allow me to lead that lifestyle...

Yeah, I need to start doing more nudes.

Is there a Nashville thread? I didn't see one in a quick search (but I fail at searching often).

embassy suites is affordable as long as you get 4 people in a room or and split it----6 people would make it super cheap, theres 3 beds. 3 people for 3 nights ended up being like $140 per person for the whole time i think.
PLUS you get free awesome as you want it omelet breakfast and free happpy hour everynight. i learned my lesson in omaha. that hotel is the only way to go, its amazing....

Wait wait wait...

Free happy hour like drink free beer?
Unlimited like until they kick you out for disorderly conduct?

This sounds like it could easily balance out the cost of a plane ticket...

Always has been. Where you been?

We were ordering them 2-at-a-time this weekend. You can drink quite a substantial amount in 2 hours that way. :)

No body told me or I probably would have made a Nico drinking meet by now...

Hell, we could have even gone and look at cars afterward or something.

OH yeah, affordable. And comfortable, too. lol Good god.

It's hard to imagine a vacation with so many in the same room, not to mention the bathroom situation. When is it all supposed to be again?

I stayed at the Mariott in 2007. $50 through Priceline. Available valet service.

Its probably even cheaper now.

Considering all of the weather / flooding issues, I wonder if it is still going to happen. I haven't been able to get in touch with any of the guys from Import Alliance about this year's event yet.

Found this about the track....

the Super Speedway is fine...

you want a hotel in Murfreesboro as the event isn't actually in Nashville.
preferably right off I-24 on the hwy 96 Exit.

Yeah we don't have the hotel situation squared away yet, but the event is definitely on!

Things we look for in a hotel:
Pool
close proximity to gas station
close proximity to something that sells beer
preferably free internet
close proximity to a car wash
close proximity to the track and the highway
