Dolly Parton's Songteller Hotel

Located in the heart of Music City, SongTeller Hotel - created in partnership with Dolly Parton and Herschend - offers a one-of-a-kind stay rooted in Dolly’s deep connection to Nashville, while Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum provides an immersive journey through her extraordinary life and career. Together, the hotel and museum offer fans and visitors an opportunity to experience Dolly’s story through music, memorabilia, fashion, film, television, philanthropy, family, faith and the moments that helped shape her remarkable journey.

Dolly was deeply involved throughout the development of both the hotel and museum, working closely with her team and the creative partners involved in bringing the vision to life. From reviewing details and sharing stories and memories to making creative decisions throughout the process, Dolly’s personal touch can be found throughout all aspects of the property. Her involvement, alongside the collaboration of her team and AOA, helped ensure that the spaces felt authentic to her life, her career and her connection to Nashville. BTS footage of Dolly filming content for the Museum can be found here.

SongTeller Hotel features 240 signature rooms and suites, complemented by elevated dining, SongTeller Café, live entertainment and immersive experiences inspired by Dolly’s life and artistry. At the heart of the hotel is Parton’s Live, a vibrant celebration of Dolly’s music and performance legacy, alongside Jolene’s, an intimate live music and entertainment space on the hotel’s top floor, inspired by one of Dolly’s most iconic songs.

Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum - created by Dolly Parton Productions - begins with Dolly herself, guiding guests into her story from the very beginning. The experience opens on January 19, 1946, the night Dolly was born, before taking visitors through the many chapters of her life and career. Guests journey through her childhood and young years in the Great Smoky Mountains, her early days performing and finding her place in country music, her rise through the Opry stages, and her evolution into a global music superstar and Hollywood icon. Along the way, the museum explores the people and experiences that shaped her, including her family, music, film and television career, fashion, philanthropy, faith and the many milestones that have made Dolly’s story one of the most extraordinary in entertainment.

The museum hosted a panel today featuring Steve Summers, Dolly Parton’s Creative Director; and Tom Acomb, Chief Creative Officer and Co-Founder at AOA. The conversation offered a behind-the-scenes look at the creative vision, collaboration and personal involvement that brought the museum to life, including the experience of working directly with Dolly throughout the development process.

AOA, the award-winning design, production, and project management studio specializing in immersive destinations and experiential storytelling, served as the creative and production partner behind the museum and the project manager for the hotel, guiding both from their earliest stages through opening day. On the museum, AOA worked in direct collaboration with Dolly, Rachel Parton George, Rebecca Seaver and Steve Summers, translating Dolly’s memories into fully realized, immersive environments. On the hotel, AOA partnered with Herschend managing the design team and project schedule throughout construction to bring this landmark Nashville destination to life.
