Taking care of our guests has always been our number one priority.

We have also made a few adjustments to the services, amenities and facilities available during your stay. Here is what to expect during your stay at Gaylord Opryland.

Flexible Cancellation

In response to changing marketplace conditions, Gaylord Hotels is committed to ensuring our customers experience flexibility during these challenging times. For all Gaylord Hotels, we are extending our flexible reservation policies. Change and cancellation policies for guests with existing reservations for any future arrival date, including pre-paid reservations, full changes or cancellations are permitted at no charge up to 72 hours prior to arrival.

Hygiene & Cleanliness

STARS (employees) are required to be aware of and follow personal hygiene, physical distancing and Personal Protective Equipment, in compliance with all federal, state and local public health guidance. Hand sanitizing stations for guest use are placed in high traffic areas and public spaces.

Shared Responsibilities

We’re laser-focused on providing our teams with the tools, training and resources that are necessary in this environment. We ask that you also take steps to protect the health of those around you: avoiding traveling if not well, practicing sound preventative actions such as good hand hygiene, and following the physical distancing and health practices as outlined by state/local law and the hotel.

What is your photograph policy?

Professional photographers are not permitted for still, video or drone photography sessions on the resort’s private property. Families are welcome to capture their own memorable moments with personal “snap and shoot” cameras, iPhones and non-professional cameras. Meeting planners or local/social catering customers are permitted to have professional photographers to capture images for their events in their contracted event space only; other public spaces of the hotel are excluded.

Book with Confidence

Our flexible rates and cancellation policies make planning your getaway easier than ever. We are committed to ensuring our customers experience flexibility during these challenging times and are extending our flexible reservation policies.
