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.[7] 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.[8]

In addition to being a hotel, the building also contains office space in its top 6 floors, this portion being known as CitySpace. These office suites are serviced by a separate bank of elevators accessible on the third floor.[9]

The hotel was originally named the Stouffer Hotel, prior to the Marriott acquisition of the Stouffer Corp.[2]
