Beautiful mansion, many artifacts from the period. Tour guide were very informative. Grounds of Belmont college are beautiful too
Belmont mansion
Rebecca_W, Apr 2024
Good tour for something to do. The introduction guide was great and very knowledgeable. After the introduction the rest of the tour is self guided which is cool since you can go at your own pace. Nice place to visit.
Peaceful time in Nashville
Joan_A, Apr 2024
The home was absolutely beautiful. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed a peaceful stroll through the garden.
Amazingly kind people
Gabrielle_G, Mar 2024
I have never been to a museum run by kinder people. I walked up to this beautiful house and was greeted by a woman watering the flowers. She said she didnt work for the house but to ring the doorbell and she figured someone would come help. Sure enough as soon as i rang the bell the kindest woman answered the door. The ticketing process was easy. And the house itself is absolutely stunning with a great story. Especially during Womens History Month.
Its a house
Johanna_Z, Mar 2024
The house was cool and the outside was gorgeous. The history was somewhat interesting but it’s not the same as visiting a well known figures house. It’s not a bad stop if you’re a history buff
Very interesting history
Chelsie_L, Dec 2023
The 10 minute introductory info at the beginning was awesome and made touring the home so much more interesting!
Lovely place.
Judith_M, Aug 2023
The mansion was amazing. The tour guides were knowledgeable. They answered every question. I would have liked to see the kitchen area. I would love to have a dining room as large as the one in the mansion. The grounds were lovely. Of course the grandchildren liked the gift shop.

We absolutely LOVED this tour.
Jennifer_W, Jul 2023
We were both very impressed with the house and the sculptures. All of the young people inside were friendly, informed and very helpful. We were so impressed with Adelicia Acklen we drove to the Cemetery on the same trip to see where she was buried too. Fun history to learn🧡

The general beauty of the site and the incredible artistry of the restoration staff made the home environment just lovely.

Donna_L, Jun 2023
We were unhappy 😞 that the mansion closed at 5pm on a Saturday evening. We had to rush thru first floor!
Beautiful Mansion
Cheryl_C, Jun 2023
The docents give a complete history of the mansion and family with many interesting facts. We were then allowed to wander, but docents were always available to answer any new questions that we had.
Mediocre
Eileen_D, May 2023
The grounds/campus were the best part. Beautiful! We didn’t find the actual ma soon as interesting as we thought it would be. After a while, every room looked the same!
Great Tour and Friendly Docents
Alison_M, May 2023
The Belmont Mansion was amazing! The house was maintained and restored beautifully to its original state. The docents were extremely friendly, helpful and informative. If you had questions about the family/home/estate, they were always willing to provide more detail and share their knowledge. Super happy I toured the Mansion. The campus is lovely as well with several sculptures in the gardens.
Great views of history
Angela_M, Apr 2023
Loved being able to learn about the history, view every room to see carpeting, wallpaper and decorations.
Very good!
