anyone ever stay at the downtown residence inn? How is it in terms of safety and proximity to nightlfe and restaurants?

Not the Airport location, unless your Forrest Gump:D

Stay downtown and ride the trolley to the nightlife.

gee, thanks...considering I am not from memphis, have never been there and don't know where the nightlife is this is not helpful at all...anyone out there that can provide some useful advice please..thanks!

If you've never been to Memphis, Beale Street is the place to check out; but it's hard to go wrong with anything downtown. Concentrate your search around the 200 block of Beale.

As for me, anything close to the Rendezvous is good. Gotta have my ribs!

Thank You!!!! Now which marriott is closest to Beale St?

Now why couldn't you find this out for yourself?

"we're close to . . . the world-renowned Beale Street . . . ."

The Memphis Marriott Downtown is not exactly next door to Beale St. but is not a bad walk either.

The trolley stops in front of the hotel and you ride it to Beale St. and visa-versa.

The hotel itself is actually pretty nice and the C-lounge has some of the best staff around.

I have looked up information on these hotels on the internet however I want to get other users opinions..I mean isn't this what this board is all about. Please...if you don't have useful information for me there is no need to send me links to mapquest.com and marriott.com...thank you

Looks like there are 3 hotels...marriott downtown, residence inn and springhill suites..now which is closest to beal street, restaurants and nightlife..c;mon memphis experts help me out!

Walking around Downtown Memphis at night is not the safest thing to do. If you are in a goup of three or more people, you might be OK.

The RI is six blocks north of Beale st.

The SHS is eight blocks north of Beale st.

The Marriott is about 16 blocks north of Beale st.

So you obviosly want to stay at the RI to be close to Beale/nightlife.

Of the 3, the RI is the newest (I think a year old). The SHS and the full service are older. I've stayed at the full service and IMHO was not terribly impressed with the property or service. I've never tried the other 2, but would try RI if the price was right, since it's a few blocks closer to Beale.

Stay at the Marriott-Dtown, its a little away from the bar scene but the trolley run behind it and for $1 you can be on Beale st....
