Hotel The Peabody, Memphis
Expert reviews
“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.
“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.
“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).”

If you’re going to Memphis, there is only one place to stay: The Peabody!
Whilst old worldly, it was well maintained and very comfortable. The staff were great and couldn’t do enough for you

The area was very convenient.
I didn't like that since I purchased two rooms I had to pay valet for two rooms but we rode in the same vehicle. Why not charge one fee

Excellent
Excellent room and location, valet parking was a bonus after a long drive. The room was great, Coffee machine was great. Peabody duck show was worth the visit
Wish we had the option for a king size bed instead of two queen beds, seems like they cater more for groups or families, otherwise you have to pay a premium for one large bed.

The Peabody takes you back in time when the guest was treated like “royalty”.
You never have to leave the property for anything. You have access to shopping, restaurants, and a spa.

We had the most memorable week being pampered by Dough’s team in a magical place
Everything! The history, character and tradition particularly, in combination with exceptional staff, made for the perfect stay.
Unfortunately the athletic club was still being renovated during our visit - without a doubt it will also be great once done though

Please refer above to my complaints.
Breakfast met my expectation.
At check-in, I specifically enquired of the female receptionist if the heated pool was operational as I was looking forward to it. I have stayed at this hotel at least six times, perhaps more. What she failed to mention is that the fitness centre was out of bounds due to renovation! I discovered this when I went down to swim. The room service was good but very expensive. I used to enjoy the lamb chops at the Capriccio Grill but it was no longer on the menu!

Wow!
Where do I start? Amazing venue, fab bedrooms, very comfy bed n pillows. Great Sauvignon Blanc in lobby bar. Staff really helpful and welcoming. Ideal location for walking to Beale St and Civil Rights Museum.

Awesome!
Beautiful hotel and walkable to many sites. If you have kids, the duck walk is special. The bar is great with excellent mocktails. The dessert shop was nice to have in the evenings as well. Well-appointed rooms and staff are friendly.
Small bathroom to share with friends and no fan. The capriccio restaurant was just ok but the staff was great! Not much not to like at this hotel. It was fantastic.

Old world ambience with modern day facilities. Equisite service, friendly and professional but not too formal. The epitome of old world charm meets new world expectations. Book the club level, you won't regret it.

A great hotel
A classic, old school hotel. Beautiful, good rooms, a comfy bed, attentive staff and our meal at Chez Philippe was superb.
The bathroom was quite tight. Rental fridges and microwaves: really?!

A trip back in time with comfortable elegance. Tx
A beautiful iconic hotel near the river and Beale street. The room was lovely and very comfortable. The reception staff was very friendly.
The bar staff in the bar and the lobby. I expected them to be more efficient and friendly.

My second stay and highly recommend.
I love the location. Close to attractions. The motel rooms are very nice and I love the duck decor. Enjoyed watching the ducks arrive to the fountain in the lobby. A must see. Used the spa for a massage. Very nice.
Have to pay for parking and is a walk to get to. Valet parking is available at an additional cost.

3 days in Memphis
The Duck parade twice a day is a super tradition. The hotel tour by the duck master is a must. A really great guy he is. Rooms were superb. Food was excellent. Staff were great. Highly recommend this as a place to stay in Memphis.
Not a lot not to like so no complaints from me. It was a real treat and a little unexpected too which was great.

A truly great experience, the ducks are just fantastic too.
We loved the whole ambiance, the room we had was beautiful and the service was first class.
We went to the corner bar for a drink and the girl behind the bar ignored us for 5 minutes, we left and went to the lobby bar.

Beautiful hotel to stay in and great central location to sight seeing by foot and activities in Memphis. The staff here are really lovely and the highlight is most certainly the Peabody ducks.
The bathroom could be a little more spacious

Wonderful experience.
Everything about the hotel was awesome.
The maintenance on the outside was a little annoying but I understand there’s no good time to do that.

Historical hotel I won’t forget.
This is a historic hotel in downtown Memphis. The bar is fabulous and the duck march so memorable. I’d recommend doing the hotel tour at 1130.
The dinner was expensive for what we got. The room was a little small.

Worth a visit for the history, rooms but more importantly the staff
The rooms are comfortable and clean. Staff at the hotel were lovely and made a real effort to make the stay special. It has an old world feel and I would recommend making time for the duck walk and cocktails.
We ordered room service and the food was warm not hot but tasted lovely.

Coming back, for sure.
Classy, historical hotel, unbelievable, comfortable beds and pillows. Of course loved the mallard duck "parade" and it's history. Location to Beale, Main Street and Riverwalk.
Hard to find valet parking entrance. Address not given (but found out it's the same as the self park address).

SCROLL UP AND READ AGAIN!!!
Upon arrival, the front desk informed us that our reservation thru Booking.com had been cancelled. They were able to accommodate us due to row occupancy, but this resulted in a double charge on our credit card. Called Booking.com, but after your review, the charge was not reversed. Peabody nor Booking.com accepts responsibility. We WILL NOT use EITHER Booking.com nor Peabody Hotel EVER AGAIN!!!
