The hotel

Legend lives on at The Peabody, Memphis’s grandest address. Deep in the downtown district, it’s just blocks from the relics of rock ‘n’ roll and blues that made Memphis famous, including Beale Street, Gibson Guitar Factory, Sun Studio, and Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum. Its most famous residents arrived in 1933, when the General Manager put his hunting decoy ducks in the fountain after a tipple or two of Tennessee whiskey. In 1940, a circus trainer taught them to ‘march’ and they still perform twice a day for guests (needless to say, duck isn’t on the menu here). That’s not the only custom that lives on, there’s the Peabody Afternoon Tea, the extravagant Sunday Brunch, and the simple tradition of indulgence, with the 5 restaurants and bars, Grecian-style pool and whirlpool, summertime rooftop parties, and Feathers Spa.

The hotel is extremely unique and well kept. A highlight is having drinks in the lobby while watching the ducks enter or exit in ceremony. Rooms are beautiful. Pool and hot tub were nice. Definitely recommend!

I fell in the pool area. Hurt my foot. Bruised multiple spots. Never checked on me. Gave bandaids. Blood from toe and elbow. That was it. Couldn't walk. Room service was $140 and I left next day.

No intention of ever going back. Read less
Image of the Tripadvisor rating Great job! Ducks were a hit! Our only issue was dirty parking garage and phone chargers did not work. Thank you!

Our only issue was the dirty parking area, and the phone chargers in the room did not work. We did have a great time, and the hotel was elegant and historic. We will stay again, and thank you for your opportunity to leave a review!
