Opened in 2000 and refreshed with a 2019 renovation, the hotel’s aesthetic draws inspiration from the area’s rich musical heritage. It’s a smart choice for travelers who want to be right in the mix without sacrificing comfort.
The hotel offers a few practical perks that help you navigate the energy of downtown. Some rooms feature private balconies with skyline views, which are fantastic for soaking in the atmosphere.

Expert reviews
“Hampton Inns used to just be budget options, but in recent years they’ve become more boutiquey, but without the big price tag. Everything about this hotel is reliable (including the service) and convenient (particularly the location). You’ve gotta love a hotel that doesn’t try to nickel-and-dime you, and it’s hard to beat getting freebies like the Wi-Fi and the breakfast.”

My new favorite hotel. A great value!
This may be may favorite hotel ever. The location is perfect for Beale Street. The hospitality cannot be topped. Best shower pressure in America. And you cannot find a better included breakfast. We can't wait to return! I'm blown away.
As the sign in our room admitted, room temperature is very hard to control. Not a deal breaker, but if there's a way to update that HVAC system, all would be golden.

Great location one block from Beale Street. Friendly/awesome staff. Clean rooms.
Had issue returning to hotel after eight, they lock doors with key access but two of the doors access would not work. Also parking is next door with zero security.

Home away from home...
Love the location from downtown attractions. Staying there feels comfortable and safe with the locked door security.
There isn't anything to not like. I have no complaints.

Great location, friendly staff. Quiet enough considering just off Beale St. Great view to the east and an enjoyable free concert in Handy Park!
Price of water in sundry shop.

Staff was most helpful, making our stay comforting.
The location was excellent for traveling home from Louisiana. Wanted to experience Beale St.
The House of Blues Cafe was so convenient.
We were not impressed with the breakfast; but found enough to get us on our way.
Would have liked a restaurant on sight but it was a pleasant restful night after driving 7 hours.

Great location and price.
Location was perfect. We were able to check in early. Staff was extremely pleasant and provided excellent dining recommendations.

Very clean and cosy
The hotel was very clean and the staff very friendly and helpful, especially a lady at breakfast time, but I didn't get her name.
The room was nice and cosy and the bed very comfy. They provided ear plugs, but because I was on the 6th floor I didn't need them as I couldn't hear the music from the street up there.
It is right next to Beale Street and the Fed Ex forum, so great location.
The pool didn't have changing rooms with showers and lockers. The pool is also very small, so not a lot of room to swim.
It would be good if bacon was an option at breakfast.

Convenient, clean and quiet.
The location is near Beale St and all the restaurants we wanted to eat at. Walking was easy.
Wish there was a hot tub. Breakfast area was really crowded, a larger space may be needed.

A nice stop for the night and able to catch some of Beale Street.
Spacious room. Great breakfast. Friendly staff and helpful. Located right downtown in the entertainment district. A quick walk to Beale Street - one block away.
It doesn't bother me but be prepared for the likelihood of noise in the hotel as it is in the entertainment district and be mindful of any Memphis Grizzlies home games.

Perfect location for Beale street and exploring the city.
The location was perfect. Walking distance to Beale St. and the civil rights museum.
Parking was adjacent to the hotel and very easy.

Other Memphis hotels
River Inn of Harbor Town, Memphis
The River Inn of Harbor Town is a hidden gem tucked away on a scenic island in the Mississippi River, just minutes from downtown Memphis. This boutique hotel is a cornerstone of the Harbor Town community, an experiment in "New Urbanism" designed to feel like a walkable, European-style village. With its classic Southern charm, gas-lit lanterns, and wrought-iron balconies, it feels more like a private residence than a typical city hotel.
Frommers + 2 more“It’s been around since 2007, but River Inn still manages to fly under the radar, and in fact, many Memphians don’t even know it’s there. On the banks of the river, in the yuppie waterfront community of Harbor Town, this boutique hotel feels very European: it’s perfect for an anniversary or other romantic occasion.”

Big Cypress Lodge, Memphis
Big Cypress Lodge is an architectural marvel located inside the iconic Memphis Pyramid, a structure originally built in 1991 as a sports and entertainment arena. The hotel, which opened in 2015, was designed by Johnny Morris, the founder of Bass Pro Shops, who turned the massive space into an immersive wilderness retreat. Legend has it that the store-inside-a-pyramid concept was inspired by a successful fishing trip where Morris and his companions caught a 30-pound catfish on the Mississippi River.
New York Times“The Mississippi riverfront glass pyramid that last served as a basketball arena has been refashioned as an immersive Bass Pro Shop, complete with fish- and gator-filled ponds. Overlooking them and the indoor cypress swamp diorama is the rustic-themed, 103-room Big Cypress Lodge.”

voco Hotel Napoleon, Memphis
The voco Hotel Napoleon in downtown Memphis is a beautiful example of adaptive reuse. Originally built in 1902 as the Scimitar Building, it was commissioned by Napoleon Hill, a wealthy merchant and newspaper owner. Over the decades, the historic structure served as a newspaper office and later as the headquarters for Memphis Light, Gas and Water, before being thoughtfully renovated into the boutique hotel that exists today.
New York Times“The 1902-vintage Winchester office building has recently been repurposed as the Hotel Napoleon Memphis with 58 crisp rooms. In addition to its pedestrian-friendly downtown location, the hotel houses a restaurant serving breakfast and dinner, and offers free coffee anytime in the lobby.”

Hotel The Peabody, Memphis
Known as "The South’s Grand Hotel," The Peabody Memphis is an iconic landmark that has defined Southern hospitality since 1869. The current building, a masterpiece of Italian Renaissance Revival style, was designed by architect Walter W. Ahlschlager and opened its doors on Union Avenue in 1925.
Fodors + 2 more“Even if you’re not staying here, it’s worth a stop to see this 12-story downtown landmark, built in 1925. The lobby has the original stained-glass skylights and the travertine-marble fountain that is home to the hotel’s resident ducks.”
