As always, excellent, though, as always, I wish there was a better parking situation.....
Cannot beat the Peabody for comfort or convenience to downtown, River Front and the Clinton Library. If you know the area, getting to Westside and elsewhere is very easy as well.
Terrible Experience

The lobby is breathtakingly beautiful and the duck march is very cute and charming. That's where the good stuff ends. The front desk staff were rude and unhelpful. The valet lied to me about the charge for overnight parking (told me it was $19 total for my 3-day stay, turns out it was PER day - outrageous charge in the first place). THEY CHARGE YOU TO BREATHE IN THIS HOTEL. You can't do ANYTHING without paying a fee. No continental breakfast, no coffee maker in the room, I HAD TO PAY $5 TO PRINT 2 PIECES OF PAPER (airline boarding pass) AND BE LOGGED ONTO THE INTERNET FOR 30 SECONDS in their business center. The restaurant in the lobby has great food if you don't mind paying $35/head everytime you cross the threshold. The carpet in my room was stained, furniture was frayed, my view was of rusty rooftops and the beautiful brown Arkansas river (don't forget the rusted bridges going across said brown river), there is no convenient INEXPENSIVE eating nearby - not even a Starbucks! Even the TV in my room was programmed to automatically take me to the pay movie chanel everytime I turn it on (where they wanted to charge me $13 for a Pay-Per-View!! Two people can go to a theater for that!) The maid service didn't come around til 4 in the afternoon and the walls are paper thin - I was on the 9th floor and could hear a pin drop in the lobby. I've stayed at Motels in middle-of-nowhere Kentucky that offered better service, nicer views, more complementary services and were a fraction of the price of this hotel. Stay somewhere else.
Great Hotel

We stay at the Peabody several times a year and always have a wonderful stay. Very good location for going to the rivermarket restaurant's and clubs. Great room service. They have the best beds of any hotel period.

I was impressed with the cleanliness and good condition of my room and the hotel generally. With no coffeemaker in the room and no full time onsite coffee bar, I made frequent trips down the street to some coffee shops 3-5 blocks away. Not optimal but at least that option is there. Also, one morning I requested a 7:30 wakeup call but got one at 6:00 am. Not great but, again, not the end of the world and better than no call. Staff was nice and tried hard to be helpful.
Great stay

We stayed here for an easy spring break it was awesome the glass elevators were fun, the room was great and we were eating in one room and one of the workers was so nice they said ''Don't clean it up this is like your secound home, we'll take good care of you'' I really believed her the staff was awesome, and most of all the ducks were great to see come out and go back up.
