Where to Park When Visiting the Peabody Ducks

If you're planning a visit to see the world-famous Peabody Ducks in downtown Memphis, you'll want to know where to park with ease and convenience. The iconic march of the ducks—where the hotel’s resident mallards parade down the lobby carpet—is a must-see, and fortunately, there are several parking options right near The Peabody Memphis.

The most straightforward choice is parking directly at The Peabody Memphis, which offers 374 spots. While it’s convenient, rates can run up to $26 for two hours—perfect if you’re dining in style but maybe a bit steep for a quick visit. Just steps away, the Royal Lot provides a more affordable option with 82 spaces and a two-minute walk to the hotel.

For better value, consider the Gayoso Garage (Premium Parking Lot #P2724), just two minutes away on foot and offering rates around $13 for two hours. Other solid choices include 110 Peabody Place with 688 spots and a three-minute walk, and the nearby Hernando Lot with 38 spaces—ideal if you prefer a quieter entrance.

Further out but still walkable are 149 Peabody Place (524 spots), One Commerce Square Parking (510 spots), and the smaller 180 S Main Street lot with 18 spaces—each about a four-minute stroll from the hotel. All are well-lit, well-marked, and close enough to keep your focus on the main event: those charming ducks strutting through the lobby.

Whether you're a tourist or a local, parking near The Peabody is easy—just pick your spot, time your visit (the ducks march daily at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.), and enjoy a true Memphis tradition.
