For most travelers, Memphis International Airport (MEM) is the primary and most convenient gateway, located directly within the city limits and serving as the central hub for the region. It is the only airport on this list actually in Memphis. The other options serve neighboring cities and are better suited for those specifically targeting those regions. Jonesboro Municipal Airport (JBR), located in the neighboring city of Jonesboro, is a secondary option requiring a significant drive to reach Memphis. Jackson Regional Airport (MKL) serves the city of Jackson and is similarly positioned outside of Memphis, requiring private ground transport or a rental vehicle. Tupelo Regional Airport (TUP), located in the city of Tupelo, is the furthest away. Travelers should prioritize MEM for efficiency, while the other airports should be considered only if flight availability or pricing significantly favors them despite the longer transit times and costs to reach the Memphis city center.

To be honest a little pricey for a small room. But it definitely is an iconic hotel and the lobby is beautiful. Ducks are cute and the hotel is duck-themed. Parking is extremely expensive, 40 dollars.FromUS$179

The hotel have some good and bad advantages.They need to hire some more employees that cares about the hotel not just getting a pay check. They didn't have any good but vending machines. Some not all of the staff is helpful and they need to learn how to clean.FromUS$57

The location is very good, the surrounding environment is good, quiet, the top floor observation deck is very good, you can look at the Mississippi River, you can see the bridge marked 'M'. The restaurant on the top floor is also good, you can go and taste it. There are no convenience stores and shopping malls around. It is more convenient to have a car or rent a car. This is the case in the general cities of the United States. It is very inconvenient to have no car. There are some snacks (popcorns and the like) in the hotel room that can be enjoyed free of charge. The hotel room is ok, but we live in a suite with an outdoor deck that can go out and enjoy the exterior. The terrace is large and connected to the next room. There is no problem with security. All the platforms need to be swiped before they can enter. There are leisure sofas on the platform, but there are more dust on the sofa and coffee table and the ground, as well as spider webs. The hotel is located in a large outdoor goods store. The interior decoration is very special. Some real animal specimens, birds, deer, etc. can be seen everywhere. There are also some introductions to the origin of the hotel, which is very story-like. I like to enjoy life in the American country. There is also a battlefield in the mall. There are guns and ammunition on the second floor. On the first floor, there are various mountain bikes, there are various fishing gears and swimwear, and a The harbor pier has a lot of local fish in it. There is also a city called Memphis in Egypt. The shape of this hotel is designed as a pyramid. From the second floor, it is designed as a hotel room along the inner circle of the pyramid. The room will look like a log cabin, plus The decoration of animal specimens is very interesting. The middle part and the first floor of the pyramid are shopping malls, restaurants, bowling alleys and shooting clubs. The top floor is the observation deck and the steakhouse. The hotel is relatively new, the room is relatively large, that is, the windows of some rooms are facing the indoor shopping malls, the shopping malls are exquisitely arranged, and the view from the room is also a scene. In short, to travel to Memphis, this is a place worth living.FromUS$229

Great location! Staff was very friendly. Pretty good breakfast spread.
We had a junior suite Room 607 which was spacious. The water pressure for the shower and tub was great and lots of hot water too.
A few notes on the downside. We asked for an extra blanket for the room and they didn’t have one and said they would bring one up when they found one. But never did.
We stayed two night and they did make the bed between nights which was great! Howe er they did not resolves with any new towels.
And a small note is the plug in the shower was a bit worn so it took some doing to get it to work k so my wife could take a bath.FromUS$72

Be careful to avoid pitfalls when it comes to breakfast. The hotel I booked with Ctrip in China included breakfast, but when I arrived at the hotel, breakfast was not included, and it was a set meal. I spent more than $200 on breakfast for three days...
But Ctrip was awesome and compensated me directly. Thumbs up to Ctrip.FromUS$170

My experience was great. The service was awesome. The room wasn’t the cleanest. The amenities on the bathroom sink looked to be reused. The lotion bottle was filthy, with what looked like food stains. They was what appeared to be a juice stain in the bathroom floor, and there was hair in the bathroom floor. Other than that everything else was good. FromUS$93

The hotel is located on the Mississippi River in downtown Memphis. You can walk a few steps from the door to the bridge to the island, and it takes only ten minutes to walk to Beale Street. The Sheraton building is quite conspicuous and can be seen from a distance, so you don't have to worry about getting lost when you go out. The room is clean and tidy, and you can enjoy the river view and the pyramids by the large glass window.FromUS$105

It's within walking distance of Beale Street and FedEx Forum and the route is easy to find (I used a taxi at night).
The opposite side of the entrance faces the main street, and there is a drugstore nearby.
Hot drinks are available at the entrance and inside the room, and it was quiet and comfortable. I could hardly hear the noise from the next room.
Breakfast service includes bread and lots of fruit, but no vegetables. The waffle maker is fun.FromUS$136

I flew over 16 hours.
I was worried because it was a very far place, but the accommodation was very clean and the service was good.
I'll rarely have a chance to come back to Memphis, but it's a good memory. Thank you.FromUS$121

The motel was clean, beds and pillows so comfortable, and the shower was to die for. The breakfast buffet is $22 but we’ll worth the price. EP’s Bar and Grill was tasty, but know food has a spicy kick! Delta’s Diner is to die for! All areas of service were wonderful! Every night at 9 pm hot cocoa and peanut butter sandwiches are put out for snacks. There is a beautiful chapel and fire pit outdoors. There is absolutely nothing I could complain about! The entire place is gorgeous and well decorated.FromUS$242

This is a great hotel with nice clean rooms and comfy bed. Lovely big TV in the room with accessible HDMI port for bringing your own device. I know you don’t book into a hotel to lie and watch TV but it’s nice to catch up on things after a long day out. Location is excellent as no more than 10 min walk to downtown Beale St, and 20 mins to Sun Studios, where the magic began. Reception being renovated while we were there so not quite as functional as it should be but staff were terrific and incredibly polite. Rocky the concierge/manager was a bundle of fun and provided some great info on what to do in this great city 👍FromUS$131

The hotel is located right at the train station, and so is perfect if you are catching the AMTRAK. The rooms were pleasant and the staff were friendly. The bar is very trendy though was understaffed and so whilst we were there, it took ages to get served.FromUS$111
