Great place to enjoy downtown Memphis. The nostalgia of the Peabody is very special. Facility is well managed and the people are incredible.

LATE NIGHT EATS: If you are looking for a food option after all the Peabody restaurants are shut down there is a great restaurant/bar across the street called Kooky Canuck that is open until 2:30a.

Such a classic hotel ! The lobby is beautiful. The shops, eateries and restaurants in the hotel are top notch. Don't forget to watch the ducks walk at 11am & 5pm. Get there early...it gets crowded !

Tulani

Classic Old Southern Hospitality at the highest level. Ducks parade into the lobby daily. Great lobby bar . Beautiful suites. Wonderful downtown location.

Laura Rogg

Very fancy looking hotel . If you're going to watch the duck March , get there about an hour before it starts to get a good spot to watch the action.

mary pinson

if you want a good seat for the 11am duck march to the fountain , get to the lobby around 10 and have a mimosa or three while you wait.

Leila Da Rocha Santos

We just pass around the main hall !! Nothing special !Just a little bit curious because of the fame!The ducks was there in the fountain ! Looks like "Ok just some ducks having fun and taking a shower !"

Dory Maciel

Loved this hotel ! Great meeting place with friends, bar drinks were great, Brighton bags in gift shop , and the duck march ... Favorite Memphis spot!

Don't forget to watch the duck parade every day around 4-5.

The lobby bar is a great place to relax for a drink! If you're up early enough, watch the ducks make their way to the fountain !

Lots of dining options are available here, and the ones you shouldn't miss are the Chez Philippe (French) and the Memphos Blues Brunch (happening every Sunday).

Judith Roosken

Go to the rooftop and enjoy the sunset . And the Duck house, of course.

Peabody

The ducks march at 11AM and 5PM, but get there 30 minutes early if you want a primo spot along the red carpet. Or head up to the south side of the Mezzanine for a bird's eye view . Read more

Located in the heart of downtown Memphis and famously known for the "Peabody Ducks ," the Peabody Hotel was built in 1869 by Robert Campbell Brinkley. It is named after George Peabody.

Barry Leeming

Nice place Duck March 11am in the morning ????????????

Yaeka Katsuta

Be sure to visit the roof and check out the duckies digs and the great view of the city .

Andrew Healan

weird place. A duck craps on the floor and nobody cares but I fart on the elevator and everyone is all offended.

Stacie Votaw

Of course the ducks are worth a trip. But, the architecture and detailed appointment of this grand old downtown hotel is worth a visit all on its own.

Laura Ellis

Head up to the roof at night for a phenomenal view and to visit the ducks in their penthouse!

Nathan Kam

Duck march is not to be missed. The rooftop is not to be missed either with it's great views .

Kaydee

Watch the ducks march in and out of the pond . Show up 15 minutes early for optimal viewing and to get a mint julep at the bar .

Phoenix ????????????

Very grand. Try the Peking duck lol!!

Kate Gibson

Worth getting there early to see the ducks as the area around the fountain fills up quickly!

Nitzana Floyd

Try the hot chocolate . It's the best no matter the season!

Jason Fandrich

Ask them about Cuestion Tequila ! Gold Medal winners, HQ'd in Nashville and aged in Jack Daniel's barrels! As Tennessee as a tequila can get!

Bella Florence

The duck march is so cute ! And make sure you go to the Italian steakhouse and try the pasta with meat sauce!

Ron Shank

Keep your parking garage ticket with you. You have to swipe it before you go back to your car. Very odd and confusing.

Bramduff

Make sure and get one of their evening chocolate chip cookies . Delicious.

Dianne Hocut

Must have drinks at the bar . You meet all sorts of interesting people!

Nik Dawson

Cool view from the top and the ducks are a funny and strange attraction

Chef Stacy LaRoche

You must be seated if you are in the lobby rather than standing behind the stanchions among the red carpet, seats fill up fast.

Gregory Davis

Wonderful hotel . Great people and great atmosphere

Bri Jones

The luxurious Peabody hotel known for the marching Peabody ducks . It is a very nice hotel to stay in.

Andrea LeTard

If anything, stop here for a cocktail . People watching is great, and the atmosphere will make you feel fancy and fabulous.

If you go to see the duck march , grab a standing spot on the Mezzanine - the view is great, and it's less crowded .
