Wingate by Wyndham Memphis East

"It was a very good experience to stay in the big Cyprus Lodge Everything was amazing And I’m sure everybody who stays there has a great time Restaurant up the top deck is fantastic a little bit pricey but if you want the food I don’t want to pay an extra for it My family’s overall Experience was 10 out of 10"

The Guest House at Graceland

10/10 Excellent

"Wow! What an amazing experience the Guest House at Graceland is! Not just a place to spend the night, but a wonderful experience in Elvis immersion! From the moment we drove onto the property to the moment we left, all of the folks who work there at Graceland, and even the shuttle drivers, were hospitable, friendly, helpful, energetic, intentional about their service to guests, and amazing. The grounds are just gorgeous and well-maintained, the pool is wonderful, and the restaurants are amazing with great food. The rooms are so nice with comfortable beds, pillows and have just the right things in each room! I highly reccommend staying at the Guest House at Graceland for your visit to Memphis."
