Hotels in Memphis – Music pilgrimages
How many songs can you think of that include Memphis? We’ve got five so far. Memphis is a pilgrimage for blues lovers; WC Handy wrote down the first ever original blues tune on paper here. Stay in hotels in Memphis and you’ll also feel the country music connection. Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash (toe the line, folks!) all put their genius on vinyl at Sun Records, now a museum.
The Peabody Memphis is one of the best known hotels in Memphis, in so-called Blues City. A big four star, triple A four diamond place (pricey too) and historic in the American sense. In other words, not very historic at all. All the same, the amazing location makes it stand out amongst hotels in Memphis; a bock or so from Beale Street, the Rock & Soul Museum and guitar lovers’ Mecca, the Gibson factory.
Memphis Hotels – See Elvis on the moon through a big telescope
We lied. There’s no big telescope on the moon and as far as we know, Elvis isn’t there. Didn’t someone say he was on Mars? My neighbour thinks Elvis is in his shed. As you’d expect many Memphis hotels are teeming with Elvi (the plural of Elvis?) in all shapes, colours and sizes so watch your back.
Actually if you don’t like Elvis, don’t go there. It really is a bit much. If you love the chubby old rogue, stay in hotels in Memphis where Elvis is still king. You can even book in at the Elvis Presley's Heartbreak Hotel, an allegedly fashionable but probably over-Elvissed boutique hotel. Great hospitality, though. It is close to Gracelands too if you’re in Elvis overdrive.
Hotels in Memphis – More sun than Miami
We’re not going to mention Elvis any more. There’s more to hotels in Memphis than The King. This city enjoys more sunny days a year than Miami. The locals make mouth watering BBQ ribs the size of dinosaur bones. And there are loads of really classy art galleries and lively nightlife. For city centre culture and fun try the midtown arts district.
The Artisan Hotel Memphis doubles as an art gallery and there are some wonderful artworks to peruse. They’ve got a fab pool and a sociable lounge and cafe. Hotels in Memphis: do they come Elvis-free? Yes, many do. But not this one. They’ve got an Elvis Presley suite where he used to play. Doh. So much for not mentioning the ‘E’ word.
