More than the ducks, but the ducks are great.
Pros:

Even for an overnight stay during a long road trip, The Peabody is totally entertaining and offers a unique view of the central South. The breakfast is expensive, but if you order judiciously, you will enjoy a taste of the South.

Cons:

The Duck show at 5 makes it difficult for people checking in after 4 to get a drink. The design of sumptuous chairs and sofas leaves little space for guests.

The service and location is good. The value does not hold up for us.
Pros:

We only had coffee from the deli and it was good.

Cons:

The logistics concerning Parking. As seniors, I had no idea how complicated it would be to park my vehicle then try to find our way to the lobby.
You definitely could use more signs helping the pedestrian traffic find their way back-and-forth.
Also. There are no signs telling you which way to exit the lot. We drove the wrong way more than once. It was all good after a few times.
The walls are thin and the room next-door had an alarm blaring at 4 AM the first night. The beds were only OK. Our backs hurt after the second night.

Pros:

This is a lovely, old grand hotel with some quaint features. Great bar area in reception, the ducks are a real feature.

Cons:

Downtown Memphis doesn’t feel too safe when you are walking about, not the hotel’s fault but we ended up feeling we had to uber everywhere as there were a lot of beggars and homeless hanging about and approaching you everytime you stepped outside the hotel.
