I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right by the Mississippi River, and the service was exceptional. The room, however, was a bit outdated and lacked a coffee maker. The dining experience offered a lovely view of the river, but the food was a bit too heavy on paprika.

Staying in the annexe directly across the road had its perks with a room upgrade and excellent views of the river from a comfortable 4-poster bed. The added touch of a small port at the bedside in the evening was delightful. However, the communication with staff left me waiting longer and slightly unimpressed.

The hotel is located in a beautiful New Urbanist residential area right on the Mississippi River, offering a serene ambiance but may lack some expected amenities. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay overall. However, the dining options could benefit from more variety. I would consider returning for its unique location and exceptional service.

The hotel is located in an upmarket residential area right over the Mississippi, offering a tranquil setting. It is close enough to downtown attractions for convenience, and the added services like wine and chocolate truffles at check-in and port at turndown were a nice touch. I would definitely return when visiting Memphis for the charming atmosphere and great service.
