White Limozeen is named after Dolly Parton’s 1989 album — a bold, maximalist rooftop bar designed around her signature aesthetic. Think pink neon, glam décor, rhinestone energy, and views of the Nashville skyline that are genuinely spectacular on a clear night.
It opened in 2020 as part of the Graduate Nashville hotel — a Hilton brand property on 20th Avenue North in Midtown, about 2 miles from Lower Broadway near Vanderbilt University.
Is White Limozeen Owned by Dolly Parton?
No. White Limozeen is Dolly Parton-inspired and named after her album — but Dolly has no ownership or affiliation with the venue. It is owned and operated by Graduate Hotels, now part of Hilton. If you want a Dolly-owned Nashville experience, the Dolly Wines Bar at Fifth + Broadway and the SongTeller Hotel venues are her actual Nashville properties.
What to Expect at White Limozeen
White Limozeen is a rooftop pool bar and restaurant — meaning there’s a pool, and in summer it’s surrounded by people who booked early and dressed for it. The whole thing is very pink, very Dolly, and very Nashville in the best possible way.
- The views — 12th floor, unobstructed Nashville skyline. Best at sunset and after dark when the city lights up. This is genuinely one of the better rooftop views in Nashville.
- The aesthetic — pink neon, bold décor, Dolly references throughout. Great for photos. The space is designed to be photogenic and it succeeds.
- The cocktails — creative, Dolly-themed cocktail menu with strong drinks and strong prices. Budget $15-20 per cocktail.
- The food — full restaurant menu with Southern-inspired dishes. Solid food, not just bar snacks. Good for dinner before a night out in Midtown.
- The pool — hotel guests have priority access. Day passes are sometimes available. Not a public pool — expect to check availability in advance.
White Limozeen After Dolly’s Passing
Since Dolly Parton died on August 25, 2026, White Limozeen has become an impromptu gathering spot for Nashville fans paying tribute — raising a glass in the Dolly-inspired space that bears the name of one of her albums. The bar has posted tributes to Dolly on social media and the atmosphere has taken on a different emotional weight.
It’s not a memorial — but it’s a place where her presence is felt, and right now that feels like enough.
