Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Even if you’re not staying here, it’s worth a stop to see this 12-story downtown landmark, built in 1925. The lobby has the original stained-glass skylights and the travertine-marble fountain that is home to the hotel’s resident ducks.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Memphis.

Frommers review:

“The Peabody Hotel has long been a Memphis icon: it’s the most elegant hotel in town and it’s just up the way from Beale Street. After a major renovation that ended in late 2013, the rooms gained contemporary touches that include boldly patterned rugs, geometric mirrors, sculptural-looking headboards, keyless card systems, and soundproof, energy-efficient windows.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Memphis.

Forbes review:

“The Peabody is a Memphis landmark. Perhaps best known for its signature ducks that march twice daily to splash in the hotel’s fountain, this grand hotel is also a shopping destination (it’s the home of Lansky’s, Elvis’ favorite clothing store).”

It is a grand old hotel. Rooms were spacious and a great lobby to sit and have a drink. And those wonderful ducks were simply great to say. The restaurant was great for breakfast, and all employees were extremely friendly.

There were signs on the exterior doors that informed customers of when the doors would be locked. Don’t pay any attention to those signs. The doors are always locked. One evening at about 8 PM I had to call security to come to the door on BB King street to let me in. The operator kept telling me to walk all the way around the hotel to come into the entrance that way. It was raining and the person with me had limited mobility. I had to insist that security come to the door to let us in. They did so but didn’t seem happy about going out of their way. Hotel needs to fix this.

Outstanding! A very memorable time for my 60th Birthday. Highly recommended.

Ambience was amazing! Bed was super comfy. We loved being upgraded to floor 12 with Son. It made us feel very special. Kenon was fabulous along with Javiya, Joanne , Jacquline, and Chef making the omelettes. Special thanks to all of them. Location fabulous. It was just a wonderful 4 nights.

We were disappointed that the ducks weren't able to see the ducks enter the fountain due to renovations. It was the main reason we booked 'The Peabody'. But we understand that maintainence is required during the off season, which is when we were there.

Beautiful lobby/bar area. A grand Old Hotel.

The distance from the self parking to reception is a bit of a walk - fine for me but maybe no so much for others.

A Classic and Classy Historic Hotel in Memphis

This historic hotel was very grand and beautiful. The location in the heart of downtown Mempis and two blocks away from the Blues clubs of Beale Street, was ideal. Lounging in the lobby bar, browsing the attached shops, and watching the duck march were all amazing! We had room service dinners both nights we were there because we had our little Yorkie dog with us. These dinners were excellent.

The lobby bar and fountain were in the midst of renovation, so we weren't able to appreciate the full experience of the Peabody Hotel. I'm sure that when these are finished, the area will be even better. Our room was very small, especially the bathroom, and I didn't find the pillows to be very comfortable or supportive, though the bed was.

The Peabody Hotel is a carming, centrally located historic hotel with many attractions nearby.

Breakfast was great. My meals were all very good. The location was excellent and I could walk to many local attractions. I loved the historic feel of the Peabody and its decor and charm. Those happy Peabody ducks were fun to watch splashing in the fountain. I also enjoyed shopping in the stores on location.

Check in wasn't as smooth as I am used to. It all ended up okay.
