The Spotlight on Sonesta Simply Suites Memphis

Affordable Comfort Near the Memphis Music Scene

Modern and no-frills, Sonesta Simply Suites Memphis is ideal for travelers who want a clean, quiet place to recharge without breaking the bank. Located in a peaceful part of town just 12–14 miles from major Memphis music landmarks like Graceland and the Stax Museum, this 2-star hotel offers spacious, apartment-style rooms with full kitchens—perfect for longer stays or groups needing extra space.

Why Concert-goers love it

If you're catching a show and want a place to unwind afterward, you'll appreciate the quiet atmosphere at Sonesta Simply Suites Memphis. Despite being a little farther from downtown venues, the hotel is just a short drive or rideshare away from iconic spots like Beale Street and FedExForum. With flexible 3 PM check-in and 11 AM check-out, it offers good timing for pre-show prep and post-show sleep-in. Plus, being near the airport (only 6.2 miles away) makes it easy to catch a late-night flight or arrive just in time for the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for space to spread out and prep for the night
  • Solo travelers flying in for a can't-miss show
  • Couples planning a budget-friendly music weekend
  • Fans who want a quiet, retreat-like stay after a loud concert
  • Budget-conscious travelers who don’t mind a quick drive to the action

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, every suite includes a full kitchen with a fridge, stove, and microwave, perfect for post-show snacks or meal prepping. There are several casual dining spots and takeout options within a short drive. Breakfast isn’t served here, but with your own kitchen, you’re free to set your own schedule—ideal after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

You won’t find a bar or live music on site, but the hotel’s location makes it easy to reach downtown Memphis nightlife in about 20–25 minutes. Beale Street’s live music clubs, local breweries, and late-night eateries are all close enough for a solid night out, with the comfort of a quiet room waiting afterward.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious, clean suites and the convenience of having a full kitchen. Many reviewers mention the hotel’s value for money, especially for longer stays. Travelers appreciate the friendly staff and the hotel’s peaceful setting, making it a great place to unwind after a big show.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel isn’t in the heart of the action, so you’ll need a car or rideshare to get to most venues. Some guests note the lack of daily housekeeping, though others see this as a plus for added privacy.

The Bottom Line

If you're after quiet comfort and affordability with easy access to Memphis music hotspots, Sonesta Simply Suites Memphis hits the right note.

I have never been taunted,...

Liked: Location only
Disliked: They were very crooked. It was 2 employees that demanded we pay with cash. So they could pocket the money. They put us in a room (324) which was not clean, bathroom have mold on the walls and the ceiling. Toilet kept stopping up, the kitchen sink had a bad leak, and I had to buy a bucket to put under the sink so when I washed dishes the bucket could catch the water leaking. Then it was so bad we had to dump it twice a day. They would not put me in another room. Keep in mind they said I couldn’t book through booking.com anymore because they specifically put me in room 324 and demanded cash payments. I am sure Sonesta Simply Suite does not even know that room 324 is getting rented out because they would not give me receipts when I paid in cash. As soon as I demanded to be put in a more cleaner, comfortable,operable room and mentioned about me calling code enforcement. He threatened to put me and my family out. Then I finally demanded to be treated like a paying customer who gave them $109/ day for 50-60 days he told me I had to check out in the morning. I will be following up with my attorney and contacting Sonesta Simply Suite corporate office because I am sure they are not aware of the scheming and terrible Customer Service that they display. I am a very patient person and put up with a lot of BS from their shiesty staff. I even have proof through cashapp that I paid a Kal Patel over $4200 in payments for room 324 on top of 2,000+ in cash. Keep in mind that 2 of my kids got sick several times which had to have come from the mold on the bathroom walls and ceiling.
