TownePlace SuitesĀ® by Marriott
The Upper Cumberland’s first extended-stay hotel, the TownePlace Suites by Marriott, is a new 56,107 square-foot, 92-suite hotel, located at 1250 Sams St., in Cookeville.
The facility includes a 3,100 square-foot lobby with a variety of communal areas – a 279 square-foot conference room that can accommodate up to 40 people, guest laundry, breakfast buffet, a 24-hour market and coffee service, and large state-of-the-art fitness room.
The building displays a new prototypical, contemporary architectural style with exterior features comprised of EIFS, fiber cement siding and a roof combination of EPDM and single-sloped metal panels. An organic stone courtyard area with fire pit, three gas grilling stations, pergola seating, lagoon style pool and cornhole court also compliment the facility.
Designed with the needs of an extended-stay guest in mind, the 92 all-suite rooms provide all the comforts of home – including indulgent bedding, a large flat screen television, a full kitchen, sink, dishwasher, refrigerator, stove, oven and microwave – all while exuding a sleek, modern feel displayed in touches throughout each suite. Full kitchens boast stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, while adjustable work spaces with built-in shelves and lighting provide guests ample room to work or study.
Guests can also choose studio and one-bedroom suites which also come with fully equipped kitchens, as well as separate living/working and sleeping areas.
This is J&S Construction’s second hotel project in Cookeville, the first being the neighboring 45,000 square-foot Fairfield Inn & Suites which was completed in 2008.
