Hi all, my wife and I are heading to Memphis for a couple of days today.  Never been before, don't want to spend 300 a night to stay close to Beale St. but looking for safe and fairly close to that part of town.  Any suggestions?

You can stay at the Peabody for less than that and watch the duck processions.

Avoid the Rendezvous for BBQ.  It's way over rated.

I'm not sure I'd place 'Memphis' and 'safe' in the same sentence.

Look for a hotel in Germantown for safer options and drive around.

Thanks guys, ended up staying in W. Memphis, then E. Memphis, but had a great time.  Eh, we left Beale about 2000, felt perfectly safe but my head was on a swivel anyway.

ETA, there was a huge PD presence down there.  Don't know if that's normal or not but kind of nice to see.  The ban on CCW, not nice to see but at least the police are there even if they are looking for CCWers lol
