Chapter 1

What is this, in one paragraph?

Inland Downtown Nashville Hospitality DST is a Delaware Statutory Trust — a co-ownership vehicle whose interests qualify as replacement property in a 1031 exchange — holding the 341-key DoubleTree by Hilton Nashville Downtown, an 11-story hotel in the city's Core District.1 Inland Private Capital sponsored it; the Trust filed its first Form D in March 2023, filed an amendment in May 2023, and is closed to new investors.

Chapter 2

What exactly is the property?

The hotel is an 11-story DoubleTree by Hilton at 315 4th Avenue North, in the Core District of downtown Nashville.1 Inland Private Capital's marketplace listing reports the property underwent a $6 million renovation in 2018.1 The reviewed public record does not establish when Inland's affiliate acquired the hotel; it shows only that an AWH affiliate agreed in 2019 to manage a downtown Nashville DoubleTree controlled by an IPC affiliate.2

Chapter 3

Who is the tenant, and what's the lease?

A hotel has no single tenant and no contractual rent: guests pay nightly, so cash flow tracks occupancy and room rates rather than a lease. The property flies Hilton's DoubleTree flag, and a Jan. 17, 2020 announcement said Spire Hospitality became its manager for Inland's affiliate after an AWH affiliate invested in the hotel.3

Chapter 4

How did it end?

What happened

No sale or other ending on record

Inland Real Estate Income Trust annual-report disclosures dated March 13, 2024 and March 5, 2025 state that the downtown Nashville DoubleTree was managed/owned by third-party investors and controlled by an IPC affiliate; matched to the DST offering page identifying its asset as that DoubleTree, this supports continuing operation rather than a documented full-cycle exit.

11-story DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in Nashville's Core District downtown; 341 keys; underwent a $6M renovation in 2018; offering size $157,038,486, equity $80,953,386, 721 UpREIT structure, LTV 48.85%; closed offering. Now managed by AWH Partners on behalf of Inland's affiliate.

Chapter 5

How is it financed, and what does it pay?

Leveraged means the Trust funded the property with mortgage debt alongside investor equity, so the loan's terms and any refinancing sit ahead of the equity. The sponsor's listing also describes a 721 UpREIT structure — a route to exchange Trust interests for REIT operating-partnership units instead of selling for cash.1

Chapter 7

What does the paperwork say?

The filing history is short: an original notice submitted after the first sale on March 8, 2023, then a single amendment that updated the subscription figures as the raise wound down.4 Because it was offered privately rather than by public advertising, the Trust reached investors through Inland's existing broker-dealer relationships.

Common questions

What happened to Inland Downtown Nashville Hospitality DST?

Top1031 lists Inland Downtown Nashville Hospitality DST as historical. It is no longer raising money.

Where does Top1031 get the data for Inland Downtown Nashville Hospitality DST?

Top1031 builds this record from the sponsor’s own SEC filings and cited sponsor disclosures. Filings can lag what is happening now. A Form D filing does not mean the SEC approved, endorsed, or verified the offering.

Can I still invest in this Trust?

No. Inland Downtown Nashville Hospitality DST is closed to new investors — the amendment Inland filed with the SEC on May 23, 2023 updated the offering to reflect the completed raise, and Inland's own marketplace listing labels it a closed offering. Interests in closed DSTs sometimes change hands privately, but there is no public market for them.

Who actually runs the hotel day to day?

The hotel operates under Hilton's DoubleTree brand. A Jan. 17, 2020 announcement from Spire Hospitality and AWH Partners said an AWH affiliate invested in the DoubleTree by Hilton Nashville Downtown and that Spire Hospitality became the manager for Inland's affiliate. Inland Real Estate Income Trust's annual report dated March 5, 2025 similarly describes an AWH affiliate managing a downtown Nashville DoubleTree controlled by an IPC affiliate.

Why does the sponsor's listing show a much larger offering size than the Form D?

Inland's marketplace listing, dated March 1, 2023, shows a total offering size of $157,038,486 and an equity offering of $80,953,386, while the Form D notices filed under this Trust's CIK report a far smaller amount (the rows on this page carry the filed figures). The public record does not reconcile the two; a Form D reports only the securities offered under that specific notice, not a property's full capitalization.

What does the 721 UpREIT feature mean for an investor?

A 721 exchange, sometimes called an UpREIT, lets a property owner contribute the asset to a real estate investment trust's operating partnership in exchange for partnership units instead of selling for cash. In a DST context it is a possible exit path: investors may end up holding REIT-linked units rather than receiving sale proceeds they could roll into another 1031 exchange. Inland's listing describes this Trust as having a 721 UpREIT structure.

How is a hotel DST different from a net-lease DST?

A net-lease DST collects rent from a tenant under a written lease, often triple-net, where the tenant covers taxes, insurance and maintenance. A hotel DST owns an operating business: revenue comes from nightly room rates and depends on occupancy, seasonality, brand performance and management, and there is no contractual rent obligation backstopping it.

Has this Trust gone full cycle or reported an outcome?

No outcome has been reported yet. As of research conducted Aug. 31, 2026, the reviewed public record shows no sale of the hotel, no disposition of the Trust, no rebrand, and no foreclosure, receivership or similar distress event, and no Trust-specific SEC filing after the May 23, 2023 amendment.
