Hyatt Centric Beale Street Memphis
Best hotel in our 3 city trip located at the bottom of Beale Street a block away from the bars and restaurants. Room was spotless - great bed. Nice bar area and coffee if you didnt want breakfast. Easy to get around in Memphis and quieter than NOLA and Nashville. Would have chosen Hyatt for Nashville ...

Memphis Vitality Hotel
There was only 1 working elevator for the rather large hotel. We were on the 9th floor so it was quite a pain. The keycard system on your phone is a great idea, but ours was very tricky to unlock the door. It took 5-6-7 times to get it scan correctly.
