US: Thompson Hotels, part of Commune Hotels & Resorts, is set to open a 224-room property in Nashville in summer 2016.
The property, called Thompson Nashville, will be part of The Gulch neighbourhood, a mixed-use project that Thompson says is “swiftly becoming one of Nashville’s most coveted urban destinations boasting more than 50 restaurants, retail stores and entertainment venues.”
The Gulch development plan was launched 15 years ago by master developer MarketStreet Enterprises.
The 12-storey Thompson Nashville will be on the same block as iconic music venue The Station Inn and The 404 Hotel and Kitchen. Architectural design is being led by Nashville-based Hastings Architecture Associates, LLC. New York City-based Parts and Labor Design will create the interiors, with site work anticipated to begin in early 2015.
“Nashville is a booming city by various economic standards, including employment, construction and the influx of young professionals, but it’s the culture and atmosphere developing in The Gulch that led us all to believe that Thompson Hotels was the right fit for the neighbourhood,” said Niki Leondakis, CEO, Commune Hotels & Resorts. “We’re honoured that ownership chose Thompson Hotels, and for the opportunity for our hotel to sit so prominently on this iconic block within The Gulch.”
