The Renaissance Nashville Hotel [1] is a hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. The building is 385 feet high with 31 floors.[2] The hotel is physically connected to the Nashville Convention Center[3] and is its anchor hotel.

The hotel contains 649 rooms, 24 suites, 25 meeting rooms with 31,000 sq ft of meeting space, and 2 concierge levels including a Starbucks coffee shop, 2 lounges, and a full service restaurant.[4] One of the lounges is located in an enclosed bridge walkway, spanning above Commerce Street, which connects the hotel to a parking garage across the street. This walkway was severely damaged during a 1998 tornado in downtown Nashville.[5]

In addition to being a hotel, the building also contains office space in its top 6 floors, this portion being known as the Renaissance Office Tower. These office suites are serviced by a separate bank of elevators accessible on the third floor.[6]

The hotel was originally named the Stouffer Hotel, prior to the Marriott acquisition of the Stouffer Corp.[7]
