Top East Memphis Hotel Reviews

The Guest House at Graceland

10/10 Excellent

"Best trip to date by far. It was southern hospitality at its' best. The entire staff were cordial and professional beyond our expectations. The guest house was amazing with every amenity one would expect and more. The convenience of being so close the desired destinations with the options of shuttles was a huge bonus for us. We were so pleasantly surprised that we are planning a second trip already."
