The hotel we reserved for our stay in Memphis, is now named �a prime spot� in several Elvis Week announcements. Here�s what others say about the hotel: �The Sleep Inn At Court Square is directly in front of a beautiful park - Court Square, and is on the main Trolley line that goes north and south through the city and down by the river. It�s also 2 blocks up from Mud Island and the Mississippi River, and it is very near many other attractions including Elvis' Lauderdale Courts Apartments and Popular Tunes records where Elvis spent much time as a youth, the Tennessee Welcome Centre with the huge Elvis Statue, and just a few blocks up from Beale St and the Fed Ex Forum which is hosting Elvis The Concert, and the Peabody Hotel and Peabody Complex indoor shopping centre. It is also just a few blocks down the trolley line from the Cook Convention Centre which is hosting the Elvis Insiders Conference and the Elvis Expo 2007 Merchandise and Memorabilia show. Needless to say, it is in a prime spot.� (photo)

O by the way, the hotel we booked in Las Vegas is the Aladdin/Hollywood hotel, where Elvis and Priscilla married 40 years ago. The revamped hotel is generally considered one of the most luxurious on the Vegas Strip.
