Um...okaaaaay..... Hotel ads on keycards are not new. Vegas hotels have advertised their shows on keycards for years. Hilton Hotels recently did a crosspromo on their keycards for that movie, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/12/21/134135/32/hotels/Hilton_Hotels_Puts_Up_in_the_Air_on_Their_Keycards">Up in the Air</a> and down in Mexico, the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/10/12/101610/33/hotels/What_Is_Going_On_With_This_Hotel_Room_Key_">Intercontinental Guadalajara</a> even advertised help for sexual dysfunction on their room keys.

Nashville: The Gaylord Opryland Resort Reopens Today and is Ready For a Country Christmas

The holidays are starting early in Nashville, where the Gaylord Opryland Resort reopens today, six months after massive flooding closed the hotel for extensive restoration work.

We love a good comeback story, and in this case it's even sweeter, since the Opryland is one of the biggest fans of Christmas we've ever seen in hotel land, and they're reopening just in time to launch their big Country Christmas holiday tradition.

Nashville: The Gaylord Opryland Hotel Dries Out and Will Re-Open on November 15

The grand hotel suffered considerable damage and was forced to close indefinitely in the aftermath of the floods. (Thankfully, guests were evacuated before the floodwaters reached the property.) But restoration has been in full swing and is on schedule for a triumphant return in November.

Severe rain storms over the past few days have put most of Nashville under water as its Cumberland River continues to overflow and the grand hotel got hit hard as the floodwaters are one story deep around the hotel. As you can imagine, the hotel--which has a massive atrium and retail shops on its lower floors--has been closed indefinitely while they recuperate from the damage. Here is a snippet of the message on their website: <blockquote>As a result, the hotel is not taking any incoming reservations at this time. The
