Top South Memphis Hotel Reviews

The Peabody Memphis

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel and the history behind it is amazing. We loved the duck walk presentation and it's close to everything."

ARRIVE Memphis

10/10 Excellent

"What an absolute gem of a hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, warm, and welcoming. Everyone went above and beyond to be helpful and make our stay feel special. The decor and overall theme of the hotel were AMAZING — so much character, personality, and attention to detail. It made the whole experience feel unique and memorable rather than just another hotel stay. Another brilliant touch was the Marshall Bluetooth speaker in the room. Such a cool detail that perfectly fits the hotel’s personality and the city’s musical soul. Being able to put on some music and bring the beating blues heart of the city back to life in our room was the perfect finishing touch to an already amazing stay. And the food and drinks deserve a special shout-out too! The coffee was fantastic, and the pizza was seriously delicious — especially during happy hour. 🍕☕️ But a very special mention has to go to Rich, who is quite simply the most awesome human! His warmth, personality, and genuine hospitality really stood out and made our stay even better. We absolutely loved our time here and would happily come back. A fantastic hotel with fantastic people — 5 stars all the way!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Memphis Downtown

8/10 Good

"This property was very good except that while we were there the elevator was out of order. The staff told of us this at check-in and offered a refund, so nothing unfair. They were working on it. Definitely the best value for downtown Memphis. We would stay there again."
