This is our second stay at The Peabody. It was even better than the last stay. The first stay we booked through American Express and took the room they gave us. It was a little on the smallish side, but this time we picked the King Deluxe on the hotel's website. It was beautiful. We were on the 6th floor and had very comfortable King bed with down comforter and lots of pillows. There was also a sitting area with couch and chair and a nice size bathroom. The cleanliness was perfect. Not a speck of dust or any signs anyone else had ever stayed in the room. Plenty of towels, hangers, soaps, etc.
My only complaint about the room is that the window drapes are so that they don't block the morning light very well. Goodness knows that after a night on Beale, you need to sleep late.
The location of The Peabody is perfect for sightseeing. You can easily walk to Beale Street and to the Riverboat cruises. Don't try to walk to Sun Studio, it's further than it looks on the map. I beleive there is a free shuttle service for that.
If you are on a tight budget, be sure to check the parking charges, taxes and hotel fees. We were a little surprised by these extra charges, but we were so happy with our stay we couldn't complain.
The staff is exceptional. All you have to do is stand in the lobby with a questioning look on your face and someone magically appears to help.
