The Peabody Memphis

Legendary for its charm, elegance, and gracious Southern hospitality, The Peabody Memphis has been made world-famous for its five resident Mallard ducks, who march daily through the Grand Lobby at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. Built in 1869, the luxurious downtown hotel is on the National Register of Historic Places and continues to carry the distinction as the "South's Grand Hotel."

The Peabody Memphis completed a renovation of all 464 guestrooms and suites in 2018. Included in the multi-million dollar project were updated 'soft goods' and new bathrooms. The new décor mixes traditional with modern, creating a look of timeless elegance. Soft, calming neutrals and rich textures are accented by custom paint colors and commissioned wall art that subtly pay tribute to Memphis, the blues, Mississippi River sunsets and the Peabody Ducks. Bathrooms feel bright and spacious with upgraded lighting, white Carrara marble tiles on floors and tub surrounds, open shelving for storage, and Quartz vanity tops.
