The Peabody Memphis

The Peabody never disappoints us. Check in is always easy and everyone working there is so helpful. The location of this hotel is perfect for the best downtown attractions in Memphis. Safety is a top priority of this hotel. I've never felt unsafe here during our many stats. Love, love, love this hotel and won't stay anywhere else in Memphis. It's worth every penny!

While I have stayed at The Peabody before, on this particular trip I was staying elsewhere on business. But the co-worked traveling with me had heard about the Peabody, and the ducks of course, and wanted to see what that was all about. So I checked out the duck walk times (11:00 AM and 5:00 PM) and decided to get there around 4:30 one afternoon for a drink and to watch the show. Keep in mind, the Peabody duck walk is WORLD FAMOUS! When we got there, there were tour buses lined up on the street and I was told the people in them were not staying at the hotel at all. They had just come to see the ducks. Word from the wise, don't bother trying to see the event from the lobby floor. WAY too many people. Go up to the mezzanine and watch from there. And get there at least 30 minutes before hand. And yes, the history and story telling by the Duck Master was well done and interesting. But when the show gets started it's over in no more than 10 minutes. So don't be late. Now, if you are the type who likes a good happy hour, don't let the crowd at the bar concern you too much. I was there twice the week I was in Memphis (got there too late for a duck walk earlier in the week and had to go back again later) and both times, soon as the ducks were gone, seats opened right up. They have a nice bar, good drinks, and cold beer.

Lovely hotel and the staff there were so accommodating. More than once went out of their way to make our stay exceptional beginning the professional and very welcoming lady at the front desk and the manager. When the manager was told I would like to purchase a case of bottled water to have in my room, she offered to go across the street to the convenience store, buy and deliver it to our room. We had it within minutes and she offered to place a refrigerator in our room to keep it chilled and that was also delivered very promptly. Our visit started out with that above and beyond service and the days after were a real pleasure. Of course the Peabody Ducks are not to be missed though not necessarily requiring big time commitment. After leaving and check our flight home, we discovered an item had been left in the safe and the gentleman who assisted with that also could not have been more pleasant and professional to deal with. Highly recommend The Peabody which is two blocks from famed Beale Street. We had a wonderful time in Memphis!

Landed in this hotel by chance not knowing the history and of course the ducks Its strange at first but it quickly grows on you and you respect this magnificent hotel for what it is probably the strangest place I have ever stayed but cool ,fabulous atmosphere on entry ,food exceptional,what a great place �

Would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone staying in Memphis. I actually miss it :( They treated us like royalty - beds were very comfy and everything was so clean. Beautiful hotel - plenty of photo opps - especially on the rooftop where you can see the whole city and then some!
