Downtown Memphis Charm
We were in town for a concert and choose to stay at the Peabody. I've been to Memphis numerous times. It's like a second home to me. So, I am ashamed to say this was my first time visiting the Peabody. It is an older hotel, which means smaller rooms. Personally, I was pleased with the room size. However, the bathroom was tiny, but beautiful! Overall, the hotel is well maintained and full of charm. I did not see the duck march, but the ducks were swimming in the lobby fountain when I arrived. Soo cute! 
Speaking of the lobby, it was incredibly packed on a weeknight. There was nowhere to sit and a fight to place an order. There is another bar nearby in the building called Corner Bar. It had great happy hour specials and was relatively empty. We bought drinks there, and then went back to the lobby to people watch. So, stop by Corner Bar for happy hour if the lobby is packed.
We choose the perfect location. The Peabody was in walking distance to the FedEx Forum (our concert venue) and Rendezvous (a must-go, great BBQ spot). It was nice not to deal with parking. Overall, it was an excellent stay!
