HEI Hotels & Resorts on Tuesday named Jim Morrissey as general manager of the 410-room Sheraton Music City Hotel Nashville.

Morrissey replaces Hugh Harper, who was the hotel's general manager for 14 years before retiring this month.

The plantation-style hotel on McGavock Pike sits atop 23 acres and offers more than 32,000 square feet of meeting space that can host up to 1,300 guests.

“Innovative, resourceful leaders who can motivate those around them to better serve guests are the hoteliers we seek to increase our bench strength,” said Michael Miner, senior vice president of operations for HEI. “Jim Morrissey has more than 20 years in the hospitality industry and a proven record of success in such key areas as strategic planning, budgeting, revenue optimization and guest service improvement.”

Morrissey was regional director of sales and revenue management for Interstate Hotels and Resorts. Before that, he was the transition general manager of the Veneto Hotel and Casino in Panama City.

“The property is the second largest freestanding conference hotel in Nashville, and I fully expect we will continue to welcome guests to the Music City with the highest quality of comfort and service,” Morrissey said.

HEI, headquartered in Norwalk, Conn., is a hospitality investment firm that acquires, develops, owns and operates full service hotels under brand names including Marriott, Sheraton, Westin and Hilton.
