We recently spent 3 nights at the Shellcrest and it was a wonderful experience. The Shellcrest is a two bedroom apartment with unique charm and character. It's centrally located downtown by great restaurants, the FedEx Forum, Civil Rights Museum, RedBirds Stadium, Sun Studio, Beale St., and the Mississippi River. There is secure gated parking. It's a great place to stay... More

For $175, you get an entire floor in a 2 family colonial. It offers a fully furnished apt, complete w a kitchen, washer, dryer and most of all privacy. Scott, the proprietor is extremely welcoming and helpful. He is very knowledgeable and is happy to help w recommendations for restaurants, sites, etc. I'd recommend having a car if you do... More

We recently had a 4 night/day stay at the Shellcrest and it was terrific. The owner/innkeeper, Scott Blake, lives next door and greeted us with enthusiasm and lots of excellent information. The B & B was one of the most unique places we've ever stayed. The house was built in the 1800's and is filled with high ceilings, large windows,... More

Shellcrest is a hidden gem in Memphis. It is such a unique and inspiring place to experience the city. I love having the opportunity to feel like a local instead of a tourist in Memphis, and there is really no where you can have this experience except Shellcrest. The value is exceptional. Instead of a small hotel room you get... More

We didn't have to go far to realize we'd made the right choice with Shellcrest. The best BBQ we had during our stay in Memphis--Neely's BBQ, now featured on the Food Network--is quite literally right outside the front door. We stayed in the second story unit. The layout is fun and distinct, and the apartment was very comfortable, with a... More

We celebrated the Christmas at Shellcrest and in all matters it was a nice experience. First of all the apartment and the furniture was amazing - way more interesting than a hotelroom. In our nice and full equiped kitchen we could prepare a perfect christmas dinner and afterwards enjoy it in the beautiful dining room. The host Scott was also... More

I totally agree with the previous three reviews, this place is an absolute gem. We walked to Beale Street/downtown area, it took us about 20 minutes and we were in the heart of things. We also walked to Sun studios, where a free shuttle bus took us to Graceland. It was great not to have to get the car out... More

I recently stayed at the Shellcrest with my sister for a weekend. She was eager to share one of her most beloved getaway spots with me. We stayed in the upstairs apartment, where we shared a huge living room/dining room with sky-high ceilings, a fully appointed modern kitchen, and a sunroom with a deck overlooking downtown Memphis with spectacular views....

I had to attend a businees meeting at the Peabody in Memphis January 18-22. Shellcrest is conveniently located about 5 minutes from downtown. The host was kind and attentive and the lodging was fabulous. After a long day coming home to Shellcrest was terrific. I was able to go back and forth from my meeting and have a serene place... More
