Triumph Hospitality and Sila Developments recently celebrated the grand opening of its Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Midtown Nashville. The new hotel is poised to become a central hub in the evolution of the Rock Block district. Located at 2221 Elliston Place, the new hotel is just steps from Vanderbilt University and Centennial Park.


“Elliston Place has always had this electric energy—it’s where Nashville’s soul really shows,” says Andy Bhakta, Principle of Sila Developments and CEO of Triumph Hospitality. “We’re proud to create something that reflects that spirit. This hotel isn’t just about welcoming guests to Music City—it’s about carrying forward the character, creativity, and heart of The Rock Block.”

The eight-story, 184-room hotel blends modern comfort while honoring the neighborhood’s past. Designed by award-winning architectural firm SV Design, the hotel offers sleek accommodations, two levels of parking, and a rooftop pool deck with sweeping views of Music City. East Nashville-based graffiti artist Troy Duff created a custom art piece during the grand opening celebration that is now a permanent installation inside the hotel.

“We’re thrilled to open our doors in one of Nashville’s most vibrant neighborhoods,”says Katie Schultz, President of Triumph Hospitality. “Every detail of this hotel was designed with today’s traveler in mind. We’re proud to offer a welcoming, modern space that reflects the spirit and character of the Rock Block.”


Guests can enjoy a range of modern amenities designed for comfort and convenience, including a complimentary hot breakfast and a self-pour station offering beer and wine. Other amenities include guest laundry facilities and a fully equipped fitness center. The hotel is also “proudly” pet friendly, as the property warmly welcomes four-legged family members to join in the stay.
The new hotel will serve a vital role in the city’s fast-growing West End corridor, a hotspot of redevelopment and restoration. With a coveted location, upscale design, and the backing of global hospitality leader InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), this hotel promises to be a key player in Nashville’s next chapter. This also marks the second recent project with development partners Triumph Hospitality and Sila Developments, the team opened Motif on Music Row last year, an independent boutique hotel experience.
