We loved our stay! We were on the 16th floor with a wonderful view of the river and bridge. The roof top was cool! The staff was amazing! The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom is huge! 10/10! Thank you!

Was very busy and difficult to find parking for valet, but staff was very friendly and accommodating. Room was clean and had a great view of the river.

Big Cypress Lodge
One of the most unique properties I’ve ever stayed at. The elevator ride to the top and checking out the view at the top is a must - especially with hotel guests getting express front of the line privilege. The in unit jetted tub is fantastic.

Comfort Inn Memphis Downtown
For someone on foot/rideshare, the hotel is on a sketchy block I didn't feel entirely comforatble in at night. Breakfast is very basic. The room was meticulously clean and serviced daily.
