PARSIPPANY, N.J. – July 15, 2021 – Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company with over 8,900 hotels across nearly 95 countries, today announced the opening of La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Nashville Downtown/Stadium, featuring the brand’s Del Sol prototype. There are 175 La Quinta hotels in the development pipeline, with openings scheduled this year in key U.S. markets such as Austin, Texas; Brooklyn, N.Y.; Denver, Colo.; and Santa Cruz, Calif. Internationally, the brand, which currently operates in Canada, Chile, Colombia, Honduras, Mexico, Turkey, and New Zealand, has also announced plans to further expand in China, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, and the United Arab Emirates.
La Quinta’s Del Sol prototype was created with the objective to maximize revenue-per-sq.-ft. while maintaining a competitive cost per key. It features a fresh, stylish and innovative design, providing guests with comfort and convenience while enabling productivity, making it appealing to both business and leisure travelers. La Quinta has continued to garner the interest of developers due to its strong performance of gaining 490 basis points of RevPAR Index in 2020 against its competitive set, according to STR data. Dedicated to guest service and satisfaction, La Quinta by Wyndham offers an elevated stay in a contemporary setting. With thoughtful amenities and friendly service, this brand consistently delivers an exceptional guest experience that keeps travelers waking up on the bright side.
Located along the East Bank of Nashville’s Cumberland River, La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Nashville Downtown/Stadium debuts 205 spacious guest rooms outfitted with amenities to relax and recharge, more than 2,000 square feet of event space, an on-site restaurant and bar, a business center to stay connected, a fitness center to squeeze in a workout while on the road, and a welcoming heated indoor pool. The hotel also offers amenities ranging from laundry facilities and dry cleaning service to Bright Side Breakfast®. With modern, locally inspired design elements, including an expansive hand-tiled mosaic reflective of the city’s music scene behind the front desk, the heartbeat of Nashville is evident throughout the hotel.
“We are delighted to bring La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham’s Del Sol prototype to the bustling city of Nashville,” said Krishna Paliwal, Wyndham’s president of La Quinta and head of architecture, design, and construction. “Timed with the return of the summer travel season, we are excited to expand the brand’s portfolio and welcome visitors to this very special southern city.”
