ARRIVE Memphis is a stylish boutique hotel located in the historic South Main Arts District. Housed in a beautifully repurposed industrial building, the property perfectly captures the creative spirit of the neighborhood. Its design balances the raw beauty of original exposed brickwork and high ceilings with modern, eclectic touches like Victorian-inspired wallpaper, Turkish rugs, and vibrant, curated furnishings.
A unique feature of the hotel is its “living room” lobby, which serves as a cozy local hangout. Here, guests and locals alike gather to enjoy coffee from the on-site bakery, Hustle & Dough, or sip craft cocktails at Bar Hustle. Music lovers will appreciate the subtle nods to the city’s rich heritage throughout the hotel, including elevator walls that feature legendary quotes from musical icons like Elvis Presley and B.B. King.
The hotel also boasts the city’s only shuffleboard bar, Longshot, adding a playful element to the guest experience. For those who enjoy a bit of local flavor, the hotel’s “Field Guide” provides curated recommendations from people who know Memphis best, highlighting the city’s favorite artists and small businesses.
Its location is ideal for exploring Memphis’ legendary music and civil rights history. You are within walking distance of the National Civil Rights Museum, located at the historic Lorraine Motel, and only a short trip away from iconic spots like Beale Street, Sun Studio, and the blues clubs that define the city. Whether you’re a history buff or a music fan, this hotel places you right in the middle of it all.
Expert reviews
“This 62-room boutique hotel, located right in the middle of the South Main Arts District, is my favorite modern hotel downtown. Beds are wrapped in Egyptian cotton and the marble bathrooms offer Hudson Made bath amenities, but the best thing about the ARRIVE is the vibe. Staying there feels like visiting your hippest, most thoughtful buddy.”
“ARRIVE Memphis has industrial-style studio rooms in the South Main Arts District in the downtown area with a bar and bakery cafe.”

We enjoyed it and would stay again.
We had to book last minute. We were really happy with the room and coffee shop. We just wish there were more options for food as we arrived late and hungry.
Late night food options. Elevator had a strange smell.

Absolutely fantastic experience. I try to shy away from downtown but didn't have a choice this time during travel. Valet parking kept my headache away, gorgeous hotel interior, the room was outstanding. Such cool features, comfortable, clean. Staff was amazing. Excellent customer service, a number you can text with questions, response times were super quick. 10/10 would absolutely recommend and will stay here again.

Great play to stay - would return
Great vibe, excellent location, good cafe and bar.
No (free) water or tea/coffee provided in the room, which was a bit disappointing given the price.

A nice diversion from a chain stay
It is a change of pace from an ordinary chain. Room is small but cleverly efficient. Be prepared for some "rustic" attributes but bed was comfy, lounge was cozy and staff were hospitable. Overall the room was as pleasant as it was different. Nice bed.
Well, parking. You are unlikely to find a spot close enough so that you can carry your baggage and items. Be prepared to shell out $37 for valet overnight parking. I am not sure I would feel comfortable leaving my car in the street overnight. An unexpected expense. Entering the room can leave a doubt. The rooms are small but don't feel cramped due to huge ceiling. Exterior walls are semi-demo'd block but covered by huge curtains that do a good job of hiding exterior light. Once I was accustomed to the space I enjoyed it. Service can be a little sluggish if it is busy . The bar tender accidentally threw out my drink order for room service so I had to go re-order. It is a nice and warm feeling lounge and serves good pastries. I would call it inviting and welcoming.

A Pleasant Surprise in Memphis
This hotel is well located near Beale Street and the River. The conversion of the hotel from its prior use to a hotel was done tastefully and with great creativity. The bartenter knew how to make a great Aperol Spritz.
There could have been more seating in the cafe as it was full during breakfast. Also, at our first approach to the hotel by car, it was not clear where and how to park for the valet service.

No parking, relied on the valet which was great

Very conformable hotel . Excellent bar. Loxation opposite the Civil Rights museum and a short walk to Beale Street was perfect for us.
It was all good .

Whenever we arrive in Memphis, we will stay at Arrive.
Our stay at Arrive Memphis was great. From the gracious desk clerk to the valet who handled our car and then to the bartender who gave us some good tips on restaurants and places to be sure and see, we found the staff delightful. Our rooms were well appointed and very comfortable and we enjoyed the choices at the breakfast bar and Happy Hour. We can recommend this hotel to you.

Don’t hesitate but if you want a brownie, plan ahead!
Great location - walk to Beale street and the civil Rights Museum. Cool lobby. Great Sunday happy hour with yummy pizza at 1/2 price and $7 glass of Cabaret.
It was very bright at night from the was the room was configured - the light from the bathroom and the frig kept me up. We could not purchase a dessert at the front desk at 5:15pm because the cafe was closed.

I definitely recommend to those visiting Memphis and will for sure stay again.
Loved the location. Easy to access all the area attractions and River walk. I was attended to quickly by the valet and offered help with my bags. Greeted warmly upon entering the building. Check-in was easy. Loved the decor and vibe of the bar and bakery. My room was amazing. Loved the decor, the bedding and the shower. The Salt and Stone bath products were a plus.

I came in late from to a comfortable and welcoming space that I enjoyed relaxing in for a few hours.
The space was clean and beautiful, and the staff was welcoming and pleasant. The area felt very safe, and there were a couple bars nearby in walking distance. The coffee and pastry I had in the lobby was very enjoyable.
There was no coffee maker or refrigerator in the room, but the staff was accomodating in getting me an ice bucket. The shower was out of soap. Innocent enough, but that was an opportunity for improvement. The door to the room doesn't shut automatically, which was a little unusual, so I had to make sure to shut the door behind me.

Stay here, you won’t be disappointed
This property inside is stunning! It had the most amazing gorgeous rustic/ modern room. The staff was amazing. Close to everything we wanted to do. Just blocks away from the most amazing bars and restaurants. The coffee bar inside the lobby is so good

Overall, lovely hotel in a great location.
The hotel is super cute, clean and in a great location. The rooms were comfortable and quiet. The staff was super friendly. Overall, it's a great place.
Would have been nice to have coffee in the room. Had to buy coffee from the shop downstairs and it was a small cup for like 6 bucks. For the price of the room, coffee should be included. It was nice there was a gym but there's only 2 machines, a treadmill and a peleton.

Cute & quirky
An eccentric hotel layout: pretty easy once you learn the setup. Valet parking was a breeze and fast. Cute and quaint. Would stay again. Loved the bathroom decor and style. Clean room and liked the windows opened. The elevator wallpaper is interesting especially when you're tipsy. The area has hidden gems, take your time exploring around. Good energy during St. Patrick's Day.

Arrive is the Place to Stay!
A great location about 100 metres from the Iconic Lorraine Motel. Staff were fantastic. This renovated warehouse is simply fantastic! There was some work going on downstairs during our stay, the staff were great assisting us.
Quite frankly, I really enjoyed my time there!

Our stay was short but warming. The room was beautiful, I wish we could’ve had a better view but all in all 9/10! We
A very unique modern style
Unless I missed the locations, vending machines. Granted the room does have the mini snack bar, which came in handy, the prices are just a tad high.

Best ever hotel anywhere
Loved this hotel. Go to Memphis just so you can stay in one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in the USA, Europe or S. America
Breakfast could have started earlier as I had to go out for a cup of tea. No big deal!

The property is exceptional. If you are taking Amtrak, it is a short and very easy walk down the sidewalk.
It is a very unique hotel, and I just loved the layout!
The walls are thin. You can hear people talking in the room beside you.

Reception area is also a coffee shop, so concierge services are sometimes busy with serving coffee customers.
