Caroline House Nashville Historic Inn
A LUXURY BOUTIQUE B&B ACCOMMODATION IN NASHVILLE, TN
FAQ
How close are you to all the popular sites in town?
We are located within 12South Neighborhood & District, walkable to a plethora of restaurants, coffee shops, and boutique shopping. Most anything else a guest will want to see in town is within a 2-3 mile radius of our Inn. We suggest that folks not use a car during your stay and instead use Uber & Lyft to get around.
How do I book a reservation for the Run of the House?
We will most likely be able to accommodate your requested dates when you reserve more than 60-90 days in advance of your requested arrival. The farther in advance, the better. You can check availability for this reservation on our booking engine right here on our website. Please email us with questions at Reservations@carolinehousenashville.com or text the reservation desk at (615) 879-9551.
What time is Check-in and Check-out?
Check-In is after 4 pm, Check-Out is by 10 am, and note we are Central Time Zone. If you reserve a single suite we offer an upgrade of a 1pm Guaranteed Early Checkin which you may select at the time of booking. We can also usually arrange for holding luggage to accommodate your travel itinerary starting at 12 noon on your day of arrival, just text our property desk at 615-879- 9551 and let us know how we can help.
What is the parking situation at your Inn?
You will not need a car if you plan to stay within the city, as we recommend use of Uber or Lyft throughout your stay. If you do have a car and plan to park it and forget about it until checkout, we offer parking in our secured gated drive. As an alternative for those guests who plan to come and go in their car, complimentary public street parking is readily available directly in front of our property.
What is the deal with breakfast?
We are the New Era B&B and support local! For single suite reservations, breakfast is included in your room rate, featuring a “Local Neighborhood Breakfast Tour”, at an alternating list of restaurants within a 1-6 block walk from our property. You will be provided with a breakfast card which identifies you as a guest of the Caroline House. At your leisure after enjoying our coffee and hot tea bar at the Inn, you will take that card with you to breakfast. The spirit of this tour is to have it YOUR WAY, whichever site you choose and at the time you choose. Also note that our breakfast partners are skilled at accommodating a plethora of dietary restrictions; our guests are in good hands!
For Run of the House reservations (reserving the entire Inn), the daily rate for this booking does not include breakfast, which is by-design based on past feedback from groups who have booked with us. Instead of being locked-in to a pre-determined pre-paid breakfast arrangement, most groups want to make their own plans for preparing breakfast a day or two at the Inn, while also walking in the neighborhood a day or two. And we of course recommend all our breakfast partners as options in the neighborhood.
What is your cancellation and refund policy?
We ask for understanding in that we are a small Inn and last cancellations have a big impact on our business. As provided on your confirmation screen at the time of booking: if you must cancel, you will receive a full refund up to 30 days before check-in, and then up to 15 days prior to check-in 50% refund. 14 or less prior to check-in and for early departures, the reservation is non-refundable. If you are concerned about the possibility of needing to cancel for ANY reason, we request that you invest in private vacation insurance. A great resource to explore these options is travelinsurance.com.
A 3.5% fee will apply to any refund due to non-refundable fees charged by the credit card processor. For Run of the House bookings this fee is a flat $149.
Are there any “hard rules” at your property?
It’s a short list. No smoking. No visiting pets. No bachelor or bachelorette groups or wild partying. No Tarzan voices on the patios late at night. No outside visitors who are not registered overnight guests, unless cleared with the owner in advance. Obvious stuff. That’s about it!
I need to check-in super late, is this OK?
No worries. Just text our Front Desk 615-879-9551 to arrange it, and we will figure it out!
Are kiddos allowed at your Inn?
Due to the nature of our property as a peaceful, high-end retreat, combined with the fact it is not child- proofed, we required that overnight guests be age 16 and up. We have occasionally made exceptions to this for a single child/minor when discussed at the time of booking. Further, we require that the child/minor be accompanied by an adult at the property at all times during your stay.
Anything else I need to know?
Under no circumstances whatsoever, should you ever think about showing up with anything other than a smile on your face, ready to laugh, relax, have some knee-slappin' fun, sleep like a rock, and have the time of your life in Nashville!
