Staybridge Suites Memphis-Poplar Ave East By IHG

Spacious Comfort Just Outside the Heart of Memphis

Modern and welcoming, Staybridge Suites Memphis-Poplar Ave East offers a relaxed, residential-style stay just 12 miles from downtown Memphis' biggest music venues. Nestled in a quieter part of the city, this all-suite hotel is well-suited to travelers looking for a balance between easy access to the action and a calm place to unwind.
Guests enjoy free WiFi, a seasonal outdoor pool, and a fitness center, along with thoughtful extras like a shared lounge and on-site vending machines. Rooms are equipped with air conditioning, private bathrooms, and some even offer comfy seating areas perfect for post-show chill time.

Why Concert-goers love it

While not right in the center, the hotel is just about a 20-minute drive to top venues like the FedExForum, Orpheum Theater, and Memphis Rock 'n' Soul Museum. That means close enough for convenience, but far enough for peace and quiet after the encore. With a generous 12:00 PM checkout, you can sleep in after a late night. Plus, the front desk is staffed 24/7, and there’s a business center if you need to print tickets or maps.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for roomy suites with space to chill
• Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
• Couples planning a Memphis weekend escape
• Fans who want a quiet place to recharge post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers wanting value and comfort

Food and Drink Options

The hotel serves a daily buffet breakfast—perfect if you stayed out late. While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’re just a short drive or rideshare from plenty of local eateries. The in-room kitchenettes and nearby grocery options make late-night snacks a breeze, and 24/7 vending machines keep it simple when cravings hit.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more chill than wild, you’re only a short trip from Memphis' vibrant nightlife—think Beale Street bars, blues clubs, and live music venues. When you're ready to wind down, the hotel’s quiet location and comfortable rooms make it easy to recover.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious suites, clean facilities, and friendly staff. Many highlight the peaceful atmosphere after a night out, and the value for money is a common praise point. The 24-hour front desk and overall convenience get high marks too.

Areas for Improvement

The location means you’ll likely need to drive or rideshare to venues—public transport isn’t the most convenient. Also, some guests mention that the seasonal pool isn’t open year-round, which can be a bummer in cooler months.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable base with easy access to Memphis concerts and a little extra space to unwind, Staybridge Suites Memphis-Poplar Ave East hits the right notes.
