Sheraton Grand Nashville Downtown completes renovation

The Sheraton Grand Nashville Downtown, owned by Dreamscape Companies and Centerbridge Partners, has completed a multimillion-dollar comprehensive property renovation as part of Sheraton Hotels’ worldwide transformation of its guest experience.
Managed by Aimbridge Hospitality, the 494-room property offers new brand programming and service signatures, such as the recently launched Gatherings by Sheraton, weekly events to “help guests and locals feel inspired by the stories and cultures of the communities they’re visiting,” according to the brand.
“Sheraton Hotels has always been at the heart of communities around the world, and now we are building upon that legacy as properties around the globe begin to bring our new brand vision to life,” said Caroline Godden, global brand leader, Sheraton Hotels. “Our deep roots in community and trusted reputation helped pave our path forward. We’re honoring the brand’s rich history while simultaneously introducing newly inspired experiences and contemporary design that delivers on what travelers are looking for today; ease, style and a sense of connection. Serving as exemplary property in every facet of this new vision, the Sheraton Grand Nashville Downtown is poised to shine as it welcomes guests into this new chapter.”
Scott Broder, president, hospitality, Dreamscape, said, “The Sheraton Grand Nashville is known for top-tier business, group and leisure travel experiences and this renovation marks our commitment to continuously meeting the evolving needs of today’s traveler. The completion of this project reinforces the evolution of the Sheraton brand and symbolizes our forward-looking vision for the hotel.”
The renovation was completed in a multiphase approach over the last two years, with interior design firm Looney & Associates as the designer.
The property’s lobby serves as the “Public Square” and celebrates its location in the city center of Nashville. Located behind a wooden staircase that is the lobby’s centerpiece is the Community Table, a gathering place and signature element of the new Sheraton brand vision. The lobby is also home to &More by Sheraton, an all-day point of connection and alternative to a traditional three-meal restaurant.
As a tribute to the city’s musical heritage, the property introduced two karaoke studios named for Nashville icons Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton.
All of the nearly 29,000 sq. ft. of event space was upgraded with new wallcoverings, lighting and carpeting. The property also introduced The Studios, three flexible spaces on the second level of the hotel available to book on-demand.
The hotel’s guestrooms have been enhanced with amenities for productivity including stone-top desks with built-in power and upgraded lighting, while also offering a living area and bathrooms with walk-in glass showers, lighted mirrors and Gilchrist & Soames bath products.
Besides &More by Sheraton, the hotel offers two full-service restaurant concepts. The Library Restaurant & Lounge on the lobby level was once the site of the original Nashville Public Library, and Sora Kitchen sushi restaurant is located within the 28th-floor Skye Lounge.
