Hard Rock Hideaway — Guest Guidebook
Your Music City Hideaway

Hard Rock Hideaway

East Nashville, TN

Begin Your Stay

Welcome to the House

You're on the rooftop at golden hour — Nashville skyline glowing, fire table lit, putting green underfoot, your crew laughing around the bar. Downstairs: a real recording studio. A custom game room. A wall of vintage guitars. Tomorrow, Broadway is ten minutes away. Tonight, you're at Hard Rock Hideaway — the only music-themed townhouse in East Nashville where twelve people each get their own floor, their own room, and their own slice of Music City.

This guidebook covers everything you need: the door code window, the parking play, which honky-tonk has the best afternoon band, where the locals actually eat brunch. Tap any section to expand it — the bottom bar follows you everywhere.

Essential Info

Check-in is 4:00 PM via smart-lock keypad. Your unique code arrives 24 hours before arrival and changes after every guest, so it's yours alone for the stay.

Need an earlier check-in? Just text — the calendar usually lets us flex by an hour or two. We'll confirm.

Check-out is 10:00 AM. Run the dishwasher once if you used it, drop trash bags by the bins out front, leave the keys on the kitchen counter. Lock the door behind you — the smart lock will reset itself.

Late check-out? Text us the day before — sometimes we can extend an hour or two depending on the calendar.

You've got two free parking options — no permits, no fees, no charges.

  • Complex parking right in front of the unit (first come, first served). If you're parking along the building, please be respectful of the other tenants.
  • Free street parking throughout the neighborhood as overflow — no time limits, park anywhere open.

Heads up: the ground-floor garage is built out as the game room — there's no vehicle parking inside the garage itself.

NO parking in front of the dumpsters. Anything blocking the dumpster or impeding traffic will be towed at the owner's expense, along with a fine — not us being grumpy, just keeping pickup days unblocked.

One more local truth: the Nashville area is a hot spot for petty vehicle break-ins. Don't leave valuables in your car overnight — even a phone charger in plain sight can be enough. We send a pre-arrival reminder about this too.

Network: 1137 Harmony
Password: hardrock

You can also tap the WiFi icon in the bottom nav anytime to pull these up — they're saved in the in-app modal so you don't have to dig.

All TVs are smart TVs (75" in the primary living room, 65" in the game room, plus a smart TV in every bedroom) — they all run on this same WiFi. Sign in to your own streaming accounts and they'll log you out after your stay.

The short version of the rules — the longer warm-but-firm version went out with your booking confirmation. We trust you to enjoy the place; these are the few things we have to be explicit about.

  • Max 12 guests. Hard cap — Nashville STR permit #058841.
  • Quiet hours 10 PM – 8 AM on the rooftop and patio. Inside the house, do whatever.
  • No smoking or vaping indoors or on the rooftop. $500 fee. Cigarettes outside only.
  • No events, no outside guests. In-house gatherings within your booked 12 are great.
  • Rooftop safety — open perimeter, kids supervised, no climbing on the railings.
  • Recording studio — in-house: guitars, mic, light equipment, speaker. Bring your own interface + the rest of your gear.

Furniture

  • Please don't rearrange the furniture — it's all where it is for a reason. Fees will be incurred if a furniture reset is required.
  • If you move small things around during your stay (totally understandable), please return them to their original spot before you head out.

Plumbing

  • Nothing in the toilet except toilet paper — no feminine products, no baby wipes, no paper towels. Old pipes hate it, so do we.
  • Issue with plumbing, AC, or anything else? Call us ASAP at (469) 844-1989 and we'll get on it.

Decorations

  • You'll have the whole home to yourselves — but this is our personal property. Please treat it like your own home.
  • No confetti or glitter. Cleaning it is brutal and it ends up everywhere for months. Bring your sparkle in some other form.
  • No clear tape, thumb tacks, or nails on the walls.
  • If you want to hang something, blue painters tape only — we try to keep a roll in the kitchen drawer. It won't pull the paint off.

Rooftop

  • Please ensure the propane is turned off and the fire is extinguished on the fire table after each use.
  • Please keep the cornhole boards out of the weather — put them up in the cubby after each use.

Trash

  • We work hard to keep the grounds around the condo pristine — please do your part by making sure the trash makes it INSIDE the dumpster.

Parking

  • Parking is first come, first served.
  • If you're parking along the building, please be respectful of the other tenants.
  • NO parking in front of the dumpsters. Cars blocking the dumpster or impeding traffic will be towed at the owner's expense, plus a fine.
  • Don't leave valuables in your vehicle — the Nashville area is a hot spot for petty vehicle break-ins. Even a phone charger in plain sight can be enough.

Unauthorized Pets

Bringing any unauthorized pet or animal onto the property is strictly prohibited. Any violation results in a $500 non-refundable fine, plus responsibility for all related damages, extra cleaning, odor removal, flea/pest treatment, and any additional costs incurred by the host or property owner. ESA welcome with prior notice — just tell us ahead of time.

If we can be of any further assistance or you need anything during your stay, please don't hesitate to contact us. — Hard Rock Hideaway · (469) 844-1989 · [email protected]

The Property

2,759 square feet, four levels, end-unit privacy. Twelve guests, four bedrooms, four full ensuite baths. The house unfolds floor by floor — game room on the ground level, social hub on the second, bedrooms on the third, rooftop on top.

Chef's kitchen with granite island and dining table for 8

Full chef's kitchen on the second floor — Electrolux stainless gas stove, oven, dishwasher, full-size fridge plus a mini fridge for drinks, microwave, toaster, blender. Granite island, full dinnerware and silverware for twelve, wine glasses, dining table for eight under a crystal chandelier.

Cooking basics (oil, salt, pepper, foil) are stocked. Complimentary coffee for the drip maker is in the cabinet. Trash and recycling go in the bins out front — pickup is twice a week.

King suite wide showing the door to the hall + ensuite. Cowhide rug, sputnik light, full privacy on the third floor.

Four bedrooms spread across three floors — no everyone-on-one-hallway setup, real privacy.

  • Floor 1: Bedroom 1 — full daybed with full trundle, dedicated bath right next door.
  • Floor 2: Bedroom 2 — two twin beds plus two extra twin mattresses in-room, ensuite bath. Right off the kitchen.
  • Floor 3: Bedroom 3 — queen + ensuite. Bedroom 4 — king + ensuite (Marilyn print, sputnik chandelier, red velvet curtains). Two spare twin mattresses available on request, set up anywhere.
  • Second-floor secondary living: two futon couches for overflow sleeping.

Premium linens, extra pillows and blankets, hangers, and clothing storage in every room.

Custom game room — ping-pong, foosball, poker, dry bar

The entire ground-floor garage was converted into a 400-square-foot game room — ping-pong, foosball, poker table, 65" smart TV, full dry bar with beverage fridge. The Hard Rock Hideaway signature mural greets you at the entrance.

Vintage guitars + Miranda Lambert mural

The vintage guitars on the walls are decor, not playable instruments. Beautiful, expensive, please don't pull them off the wall. Photograph all you want.

If a paddle breaks or a foosball rod gets wonky — text us. No penalty, no fee. We just want to know so we can fix it before the next guest arrives.

The studio is a sound-isolated room ready to record — pro photo / video / podcast capable. Doubles as a dedicated workspace if you're here for a creative retreat.

In-house: guitars, a mic, some light equipment, and a speaker — enough to plug in and lay something down. Bring your own audio interface and the rest of your gear (drums, keys, full pro rig, etc.). The walls and the isolation are the offering; the rest of the kit is on you.

Primary living room with 75-inch smart TV and fireplace

Two living rooms on the second floor — primary with a 75" smart TV and electric fireplace, secondary with bold art, more vintage guitars, two futon couches. 65" smart TV in the game room downstairs.

The indoor electric fireplace runs on a wall switch — flip it on for ambiance, flip it off when you leave the room. No flames, no wood, no risk.

Rooftop bar at twilight with Nashville skyline

The rooftop is the headline. Built-in bar (no ice maker — bring or buy ice day-of), gas fire table that throws real heat for the late-night gather, putting green, string lights, outdoor dining table for eight, cornhole for the friendly trash talk, sun loungers for the daytime crowd, unobstructed downtown Nashville skyline.

Rooftop safety: the perimeter has decorative railings, not pool-fence railings. No climbing or sitting on the railings — especially after a few drinks. Anyone under 12 needs an adult with them. Light driver swings on the putting green only (no full swings).

Fire feature: the gas fire table works off a knob — turn it on when you want it, always make sure the fire is fully out before heading inside. Bucket and hose are nearby if you need them. (It's the only fire feature on the property — no other open flames anywhere.)

Dedicated workspace in the recording studio room. WiFi throughout — tap the WiFi icon in the bottom nav for network and password.

In-unit washer + dryer, free. Detergent pods are under the sink. Please don't overload — one large or two small loads per cycle.

Iron + ironing board in the closet. Towels and sheets stay for housekeeping unless you're staying long enough to want them refreshed — text us if so.

Live Music Venues

Ryman Auditorium

Ryman Auditorium

$$$

The Mother Church of Country Music — built in 1892, the most storied stage in Nashville and former home of the Grand Ole Opry.

10 min drive
Pro tip: Show tickets sell out fast — book the day they drop. Daytime self-guided tours are an underrated way to walk the stage where Johnny Cash met June Carter.
Grand Ole Opry

Grand Ole Opry

$$$

The longest-running live radio broadcast in U.S. history — country music's biggest names play this stage every week, year-round.

18 min drive
Pro tip: Tuesday and Friday shows usually have the best mix of legends and rising stars. Stay through the credits — the surprise guest closer is often the headliner of someone's next tour.
The Bluebird Cafe

The Bluebird Cafe

$$

Tiny 90-seat songwriter listening room in Green Hills where Garth Brooks, Taylor Swift, and Faith Hill got discovered. Strict no-talking rule during sets.

20 min drive
Pro tip: Tickets drop Monday at 8 AM and sell out in minutes. Better odds: line up for the walk-up bar seats one hour before showtime.
Exit/In

Exit/In

$$

Legendary 500-cap Elliston Place rock club — R.E.M., Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Jason Isbell have all played the small stage here.

15 min drive
Pro tip: The cover photo on most of the records lining the walls was shot in that exact room. Show up early for the in-house bar — pours are generous and the bartenders know the venue's history cold.
The Basement East

The Basement East

$$

East Nashville's best mid-size indie venue — rebuilt after the 2020 tornado, now hosting touring acts plus the city's strongest local nights.

5 min drive
Pro tip: Closest big-room venue to the house. Walk over for early shows, Uber back. Their Sunday songwriter rounds are free and almost always feature someone with a charting cut.

East Nashville Restaurants

Mas Tacos Por Favor

Mas Tacos Por Favor

$

East Nashville's cult-favorite taqueria — started as a food truck, now a counter-service institution. Chicken tortilla soup and elote are non-negotiables.

3 min drive
Pro tip: Cash-only and no reservations. Go early for lunch or late for dinner — peak hours run 45-minute waits. Worth every minute.
Hattie B's Hot Chicken

Hattie B's Hot Chicken

$$

Nashville hot chicken done right — six heat levels from Southern (no heat) to Shut The Cluck Up!!! Sides are bonafide stars in their own right.

12 min drive
Pro tip: The Charlotte Ave or Melrose locations have shorter lines than the original. Order Medium first if it's your first time — Hot is genuinely punishing.
Butcher & Bee

Butcher & Bee

$$$

Mediterranean-leaning small plates with a phenomenal whipped feta, hand-pulled labneh, and a wine list deep enough to keep a sommelier busy for hours.

6 min drive
Pro tip: Brunch is the move — get the schnitzel sandwich and the whipped feta to share. Patio tables go fast on Saturdays.
Lockeland Table

Lockeland Table

$$$

Wood-fired Italian-American neighborhood restaurant in Lockeland Springs — the kind of place that becomes your standing reservation if you stay long enough.

7 min drive
Pro tip: Community Hour (4-6 PM) discounts food and drink, and ten percent of every check goes to local schools. Grab a seat at the bar.
Folk Restaurant — wood-fired pizza, East Nashville

Folk

$$

Wood-fired pizza and rotating small plates from local farms — the East Nashville neighborhood hit that holds its own against any white-tablecloth spot. Cozy bar, wood-fired oven on display, list-driven natural-wine program.

6 min drive
Pro tip: Reservations on Resy are gold on weekend nights — book early. Sit at the chef's counter if you can; you'll watch every pizza go in the oven.

East Nashville Coffee Shops

Barista Parlor Golden Sound

Barista Parlor Golden Sound

$$

Flagship East Nashville roaster — meticulously sourced beans, motorcycle-shop ambiance, and pour-overs that take their time on purpose.

4 min drive
Pro tip: Order the iced shaken espresso with oat milk. The breakfast biscuits go fast — beat the 9 AM rush.
Bongo Java East

Bongo Java East

$

Tennessee's first coffee house — fair-trade beans, vintage couches, and the patio where half of East Nashville quietly writes its next song.

3 min drive
Pro tip: Their breakfast burrito is a cult favorite. Weekday mornings are mellow; weekends fill up fast with locals reading the paper.
Frothy Monkey East Nashville

Frothy Monkey East Nashville

$$

All-day cafe with a serious food menu — espresso program, made-from-scratch pastries, and a brunch lineup that gives the trendy spots a run.

4 min drive
Pro tip: Better for working remotely than the busier downtown locations. Order the avocado toast and the cortado.
Five Daughters Bakery

Five Daughters Bakery

$

Cult-favorite 100-layer donuts that take three days to make — laminated dough, flavor rotations like maple-glazed bourbon-bacon and chocolate sea salt.

5 min drive
Pro tip: Get there before 10 AM on weekends or the bourbon-bacon will be gone. One donut is plenty rich for two people.
Crema Coffee East

Crema Coffee East

$$

Specialty roastery focused on direct-trade single origins — sleek minimalist room, manual brews to order, and a barista crew that competes at nationals.

6 min drive
Pro tip: Ask what's on the V60 today — they rotate three different roasts and the staff loves explaining the differences. Avoid the morning rush 8-9:30 AM.

Honky-Tonks (Broadway)

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge

$$

The most famous honky-tonk on Broadway — purple-painted exterior, three floors of live music daily from 10 AM to 3 AM, no cover ever.

10 min drive
Pro tip: Tip the band. Hard. They play for tips and your $20 in the jar will get the next 30 minutes set with you and your group.
Robert's Western World

Robert's Western World

$$

Old-school traditional country honky-tonk — no Top 40, no DJs, no apologies. The fried bologna sandwich is the official Broadway hangover cure.

10 min drive
Pro tip: The afternoon shows (1-5 PM) are when the best traditional country bands play. Less crowded than evening, more skilled bands.
Honky Tonk Central

Honky Tonk Central

$$

Four floors of live music — separate bands on each level, rooftop with Broadway views, and a kitchen that stays open late.

10 min drive
Pro tip: Skip the long line at the door — head straight to the rooftop. Best Broadway view in the strip and the band rotation is the same.
AJ's Good Time Bar

AJ's Good Time Bar

$$

Owned by Alan Jackson — three floors of honky-tonk, a top-floor songwriter room, and the rare Broadway venue locals actually drink at.

10 min drive
Pro tip: The third-floor songwriter round is the move — it's quieter, the songs are usually originals, and you can hear the lyrics.
Ole Red Nashville

Ole Red Nashville

$$$

Blake Shelton's five-story honky-tonk and restaurant — rooftop with views, live country on every floor, kitchen better than Broadway average.

10 min drive
Pro tip: The Sunday brunch show is the unsung hero — full breakfast menu, full bar, full band, half the crowd of a Saturday night.

Group & Family Activities

Pins Mechanical Co.

Pins Mechanical Co.

$$

Adult arcade and duckpin bowling in The Gulch — pinball machines, foosball, patio with corn hole, and a serious craft cocktail program.

8 min drive
Pro tip: Reserve a duckpin lane in advance — they fill up Friday and Saturday. Their cocktails punch well above pinball-bar weight.
Country Music Hall of Fame

Country Music Hall of Fame

$$$

The Smithsonian-quality temple to country music history — Patsy Cline's wardrobe, Elvis's gold Cadillac, and rotating exhibits curated by working musicians.

10 min drive
Pro tip: Buy the combo ticket that includes Hatch Show Print and the RCA Studio B tour — that's where Elvis cut 'Are You Lonesome Tonight?' You stand on the X he stood on.
Topgolf Nashville

Topgolf Nashville

$$$

Three-level driving range with heated bays, full food and drink service, and microchipped balls that score every shot — works for any skill level.

8 min drive
Pro tip: Book the bay before 5 PM weekdays for half-price rates. A bay holds six comfortably — split it with your group.
Adventure Science Center

Adventure Science Center

$$

Hands-on science museum with a planetarium dome, a six-story climbing tower, and rotating exhibits that work just as well for adults as for kids.

12 min drive
Pro tip: The Sudekum Planetarium runs adult laser shows on Friday and Saturday nights — Pink Floyd, Beatles, Daft Punk. Buy tickets separately.
Centennial Park & The Parthenon

Centennial Park & The Parthenon

$

132-acre park with a full-scale Parthenon replica housing a 42-foot statue of Athena — open green space, walking trails, and an art museum inside the columns.

15 min drive
