Fairly new hotel; very clean; easy parking, although a little pricey; every member of the staff was very friendly and accommodating; buffet breakfast was OK; great location, an easy walk to Beale Street; we felt very safe walking to Beale Street..
We were exceptionally pleased with the service we received here. At check-in, we were greeted as Platinum Elite members and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we received Platinum benefits. There is a charge for valet parking, but the cost was a bargain, for the service. We ordered room service for dinner, for which there is an additional charge, but it was well worth it, because - again -we had exceptional service. Food was very good for dinner and even better, for breakfast. Our room was very clean, with soft beds. It was more quiet than we had anticipated, but that may be because Beale Street is actually about a block away. Hotel is in a great location, right across the street from Fedex Forum and the Memphis Rock & Soul Museum. Easy drive to Graceland. Also, there are many great restaurants within 1 to 2 miles of this hotel. We will definitely keep this hotel ”on the radar” for a future visit !
ผผู้เข้าพักThe young man who checked us in was very nice. The room was strange -- dated, with some of the weirdest furniture I have ever seen in a hotel. It was like we were in Pennsylvania Dutch country instead of Memphis. The fabric headboard had big holes in it with the foam rubber underneath poking out. Towels had strings hanging off and my washcloth had a hole in it. The room smelled odd; this property has some age on it and although some improvements were made at some point, it wasn't enough and it's now too worn. The bed was comfortable enough. The internet did not work and when I complained to the front desk, the person who answered (NOT the nice guy who checked us in) blamed it on our devices. He said he was surfing the web just fine and that no one else had complained. He said I'd have to call another number, which I did, and that turned out to be an internet help desk for IHG hotels. The young man who answered was extremely nice and said that absolutely there was no problem with our devices, but rather with the property's internet. He worked on it for 45 minutes while I was on the phone. That was not how I wanted to spend my evening after traveling all day. He never was able to get the internet to work for us so we ended up using our personal hotspots which we could have done to begin with, but in this day and age there is no reason for the internet not to work seamlessly in a $150 a night hotel room. Breakfast the next morning was adequate. the only bright spot was a young lady named Robin, in housekeeping, who was so sweet and nice to us when we went back to our room following breakfast, to pack up and leave. I was so impressed with her that I gave her a tip and thanked her for her great attitude. We had a reservation to stay at this property the following week on our way back home, but I promptly canceled it and booked a room at the La Quinta down the street. It was wonderful. Avoid this Holiday Inn at all costs; for the most part they are phoning it in.
Over the past 1.5 years I have stayed at this hotel 3 times. While the rooms are consistently clean and the general staff very friendly there are two particular issues I have. When travelling the fitness centers are important to me and yet each time I have stayed here the elliptical machine has not worked. The second time I happened to meet the General Manager (Annette?) who promised me she would follow up and if it did not work the next time she would comp the room. Lo and behold it had the same exact issue as the prior two times and was unusable. She was not in until 10am so I wrote her a note and gave it to the front desk clerk who promised to pass it on to her. I reminded her of our conversation, gave her my email and cell and go no response; not even an apology. Given this lack of follow through and false promises I will not stay here again and would advise anyone who cares about working fitness equipment not to do so either.
Honestly, we had an amazing experience at the hotel. Very friendly staff, and helpful with food recommendations (she pointed us to Flight and we loved it!). Great location. Our room was very quiet and clean. I was worried about some of the reviews I had read, but those weren’t my experience at all. For the price, this hotel can’t be beat.
I stayed here earlier in the month with friends. Two things dragged down my review for this hotel. First while at the hotel, they were out of a few condiments at breakfast and the attendant was out of that area socializing with other hotel staff, leaving it in need of resupplying. The other was after my stay. As a HH member, I was eligible for a points bonus which was running this fall. For some reason, the hotel gave me the bonus points for my stay, but NO points for the actual money spent at the hotel. I will have to call them or HH to get the points for the rate that I spent while there. Annoying!
AAlisha MThe outside is not all appealing but when you get inside tour room, it's nice. The staff is not all that except for the one black lady, she made us feel welcomed, she joked and spoke every time she saw us, the other staff members, they just looked at us and didn't part their moth. Lol It served its purpose for us when we went. We went for a lakers and grizzlies game. It's like 15 to 20 mins away from FedEx Forum. I would rebook here again.
