The Renaissance is steps from the heart of Broadway in Nashville; an unbeatable location. It’s a very large property with a cool “bridge” bar over Commerce Street. But while the public areas are modern, the rooms are dated and shabby, especially the bathrooms. The mirror in my bathroom had some stains on it. The amenities are also substandard for a high-profile property. There’s a decent-sized, though old pool, but the fitness room is very small. The location might be sufficient to overlook some of these things in a discount hotel, but the prices at the Renaissance are luxury prices and it’s not a luxury hotel.
