Review from Sarah P.

This hotel has a great location, right next to Beale Street. The staff is friendly and helpful, and since it's a residence inn you get all the typical features (free breakfast, free happy hour during the week, a kitchenette in your room, etc.). It is clean and looks well maintained.
I stay in a lot of marriotts and sometimes the residence inn is nicer than the mainline marriott in a given city -- this is the case in Memphis. If you are deciding which marriott to book, I would pick this one over any of the others because of location + quality of the hotel. -

We absolutely loved staying in this hotel for marathon weekend, and we'll probably return to it the next time we're staying in Memphis.
In the past, we have always stayed at the Peabody or the Marriott, and the quiet, restful environment of this hotel was really welcomed for all of us runners! We also appreciated the valet parking and the WONDERFUL effort the hotel made to accommodate all of us leaving early for the starting line: While typically they didn't serve breakfast on weekends until later, they had a lot of popular runner foods out early, like bananas, bagels and, of course, coffee. Very thoughtful!
I also called the desk to ask if I could buy some tea varieties in their store because what I found in the room seemed to be only caffeinated choices, and we wanted some before going to bed the night before the race. The woman at the desk told me to just come down to the breakfast area and help myself to whatever varieties I wanted there. Again, very thoughtful!
We loved our room! We had what I think is categorized as a "one bedroom," and has the bed/bath area separated and slightly raised from the living/kitching/dining area. It was very relaxing and comfy. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils for us. The Internet is not wireless, but wires are provided, and it's FREE.
Two small things: The remote for the living room television didn't work at all, except to turn it on, and the phone in the living area didn't dial the pre-programmed numbers, so there was not way to call the desk from that phone. I didn't tell them about these issues, so I didn't give them an opportunity to fix them.
This hotel is very well located for many downtown restaurants and activities, as it is super close to (but blessedly off of) Beale Street and very close to AutoZone Park, the Orpheum Theater, etc. There are also great restaurants nearby, including two of my favorites, McEwen's on Monroe and Automatic Slim's on 2nd. Rendezvous Barbecue is also very close.
This is a GREAT place to stay in downtown Memphis. We loved it. Everyone was very friendly and helpful, and we were quite pleased with our stay! -

I really love this hotel and often advise out of town visitors to check it out before making final reservations anywhere else. It's right in the middle of downtown Memphis, just blocks from Beale Street, AutoZone Park, Court Square and the trolley line.
They just renovated a few years ago, and the hotel looks fresh and modern on the inside. Notice I said modern and not contemporary. The rooms are spacious and the one that I stayed in had a little kitchenette. No need to use the kitchen to cook breakfast though as Residence Inn offers a free (and yummy) breakfast buffet for all guests.
The lobbies are nice, and there are many conference rooms for business meetings and conventions. The staff is also very friendly, and there is valet service available. -

Great location, clean comfortable rooms (like all Residence Inns I've been to), great front desk. There's a $16 valet parking fee per day but you get unlimited ins and outs. AAA discount (10%, I think). Breakfast buffet included. Easy walking distance to Beale street, Rendevous, Gus, and the Mississippi River. The guy at the front desk was hilarious! Made us laugh every time we entered or exited the hotel. Price was not bad either (about $127/night for 3 people with AAA discount). Free in-room high-speed internet. One odd thing we noticed--the windows in our 10th floor room did not have any screens or anything on them, so if you opened them up all the way, someone could fall out, if they were being careless. Dangerous for small children!

Review from John B.
Great hotel. Great location. Clean, spacious rooms with semi-unusual layouts. I avoided the whole valet parking mess by parking around the corner and ended up only paying $5, yes $5 bones for the weekend. Gotta love those automated parking lots. Anyways, the big bonus with this hotel is the nice hot tub on the roof. I really enjoyed soaking away the muscle pain from all the walking I did in this little city. I would stay there again and recommend it to others. The location is perfect for exploring Memphis' highlights.

I'd never stayed in a Residence Inn, and wow did it outdo my expectations. 4 blocks from Beale St. In an art deco building that was recently inducted into the historical society. The room was adorable!! If it were a studio apartment for rent, I'd be in heaven.
The complimentary breakfast was way more than expected- eggs, yogurt, bagels, english muffins, toast, cereal, waffle maker.. not just your average crap complimentary breakfast. The staff was accomodating and really into making guests happy. The southern charm of a "yes, maam" always does the trick, too. If in Memphis, I'd recommend this hotel. -

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
The building looks a little old/dated from the outside, but that image changes as soon as you walk in the door. The lobby and mezzanine where breakfast is served and where the gym is are nicely decorated and comfortable.
The rooms are even better. I love the funky layout and the full kitchen is a definate plus. The bed is SO COMFY and there is plenty of storage space. The bathroom shows a little wear and tear if you look closely, but in the grand scheme of things even that is just fine.
I was happy to see dumbells in the gym - most hotels seem to just have cardio machines. The machines themselves are just fine - not the latest and greatest but certainly better than some hotel gyms I've stayed at. I love that there are two treadmills - more of a chance to get one!
Looking forward to staying here again in November! -

Great location!!! Only 3ish blocks to Beale, close enough to walk and far enough away to sleep :-) There is valet service so you can just pull up in front of the hotel. The kind valet also helped us to our rooms with luggage etc. The front desk staff was friendly and very helpful in getting us the best rate possible ($129 per night). Breakfast, happy hour, and wifi included.
The rooms have a small kitchen which was really helpful for us. It makes such a difference to not have to eat out every meal. The shower is ok, but not the best in terms of luxury and water pressure.
I would definitely stay here again.
PET fee: $100 non-refundable one time fee for your stay. Ouch, this hurt. But, I could not find another hotel that would allow a dog in the room so I went for it since we were staying two nights. There is a park two blocks north and there is another that looks over the water about three blocks away. The down side is that the closest park has a small group of homeless and didn't feel quite as clean or safe as others I've been too. Still, it got the job done. There are tons of squirrels so if this makes your pet crazy go to the park closer to the water on Front St.
