Overview
The Aloft Nashville Airport presents investors with the rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey, institutionally branded asset in one of the nation’s fastest growing airport submarkets. Located about three miles from Nashville International Airport (BNA), the Property is exposed to diverse sources of demand and benefits from BNA’s rapid growth. The airport’s record 24.7 million passengers in FY 2025 is projected to reach 40 million in the next decade, and it is undergoing a multi-billion-dollar expansion. The surrounding area experiences ongoing development, notably from Amazon, logistics and distribution hubs, and Elon Musk’s upcoming Music City Loop. Additionally, the Gaylord Opryland generates overflow room nights in the submarket, and it anchors the Music Valley neighborhood with attractions like the Grand Ole Opry and Ryman Auditorium.
Broader Nashville has emerged as a leading hub for retail, healthcare, education, manufacturing, tech, and tourism. Substantial investment from companies like Starbucks, Oracle, Amazon, and Nissan strongly positions the city for economic prosperity. In 2025, 17.4 million visitors were drawn to iconic destinations, like the Country Music Hall of Fame, Bridgestone Arena, and Vanderbilt University and Medical Center. The city is also home to several professional sports teams, including the Tennessee Titans, who will relocate to the New Nissan Stadium in 2027. The $2.1 billion facility was recently selected to host the 2030 Super Bowl. Nashville is ranked as the fifth top national market for population growth, increasing by 1.6% between mid-2024 and mid-2025.
Built in 2023, the 103-room Aloft is the youngest Marriott product in the submarket. The Property features an on-site restaurant and bar, business center, outdoor pool, complimentary long-term parking, and meeting space. It commanded a 107.7% RevPAR index relative to its competitive set in the April 2026 TTM period, representing 18.9% year-over-year growth. With about $514k in NOI during the same period, there is a clear path to leverage the asset and drive ADR growth to achieve its stabilized income potential. New owners can also bolster cash flows from top-line improvement and expense margin enhancement. The Hotel benefits from its newer vintage in a sector with high barriers to development, minimizing risk for investors, and is offered significantly below development costs.
Investment Highlights
Turnkey Marriott Asset in High Barriers to Entry Market
The Hotel was built in 2023 and is both the youngest Marriott product in the submarket and newest vintage in its comp set. Due to the airport’s continued expansion and improvements to surrounding arteries and interchanges, sites near the airport are limited and pose significant logistical challenges. Investors will enjoy limited new competition, giving a clear advantage and supporting long term value, without having to deploy capital for renovation.
Strong Annual RevPAR Growth with Stabilized NOI Upside Potential
The Aloft achieved a 107.7% RevPAR penetration relative to its comp set in the April 2026 TTM period, representing an 18.9% annual increase. With about $514k in NOI during the same timeframe, the Property has not yet reached its stabilized income potential. There is significant upside associated with driving ADR, top-line improvement, and expense margin enhancement.
Offered Significantly Below Replacement Costs
The opportunity to acquire this asset well below replacement cost allows an investor to benefit substantially from a combination of Nashville’s rapidly growing economy and upside opportunity. The city’s average cost of building a hotel has increased significantly in the past few years. Given the size and fresh condition of this Hotel, as well as the increased cost of labor and supplies in today’s market, we can reasonably assume that the construction of this Property would be significantly more than the target selling price of this asset.
Benefits from Rapidly Rising Nashville MSA
Nashville is one of the country’s top markets for growth, with population gains, corporate activity, and tourism serving as main economic drivers. According to CoStar, the city’s population grew by 1.6% between mid-2024 and mid-2025. Investment from corporate players, like Starbucks, Oracle, Amazon, and Nissan have resulted in correlated employment gains, while tourism also produces stable weekday and weeknight demand. Expected to open in 2027, Nashville’s $2.1 billion New Nissan Stadium will serve as the Tennessee Titans’ home field and was recently selected to host the 2030 Super Bowl.
Broad Demand Base
Less than seven miles from downtown, the Hotel is proximate to the city’s famous attractions, leisure demand generators, and strong corporate presence. Nashville is universally known as the “Music City,” home to the Country Music Hall of Fame, Johnny Cash Museum, Grand Ole Opry, Bridgestone Arena, and Ryman Auditorium. Its vibrant nightlife and events attract steady weekday and weekend business, and the airport is the first submarket to attract overflow demand from downtown. Additionally, there are several colleges and universities in the area, including Vanderbilt University, roughly nine miles from the Property. There is also approximately 4.3 million square feet of office space proximate to the Hotel. The Hotel is near major industrial hubs, like the Century Boulevard Corridor, and is supported by corporate players, like Amazon, Asurion, Bridgestone, HCA Healthcare, and Saint Thomas Health.
Fee-Simple & Unencumbered by Management
The Property is being offered fee-simple and unencumbered by a management agreement.
