Frommer's Review

Trendy, contemporary styling is not something one often associates with the tradition-oriented South, which is what makes this upscale downtown B&B so unique. Each of the rooms is boldly decorated, in solid colors ranging from fire-engine red to peaceful periwinkle. Other rooms are done in rich, subtle earth tones and traditional furnishings. Most rooms have interesting modern lamps, and many have kilim rugs. The rooms vary in size from large to huge. Call ahead with your grocery list, and they'll have the fridge stocked for your arrival (for an added fee). Lots of interesting contemporary art further adds to the hip feel of this inn. Talbot Heirs is located right across the street from The Peabody Memphis hotel and only a few doors down from the trendy Automatic Slim's Tonga Club, which inspired this B&B's styling.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
