The famous Peabody Hotel took over the reigns at the upscale Arkansas Excelsior Hotel and began a massive renovation. Today, the amenities and luxurious standards equal the original spot in Memphis--down to the famous twice daily duck march through the lobby. The choice of accommodations ranges from simply posh to down right stately. Club and Concierge levels satisfy the needs of senior executives, while the flamboyant high end suites, including the over-the-top presidential suite satisfy visiting dignitaries and rock stars. Many rooms feature pleasant river views.
