HotelTonight – Collierville Memphis Hotels
Memphis, Tennessee is one of the most vibrant and ever-developing cities in the United States, at least based on my relatively extensive traveling experience. It's a place that holds on to its history gracefully while also accepting that things change as time moves forward. That's why I always look forward to visiting this lovely place whenever I get the opportunity. Thankfully, my job takes me there often, and whenever I can pull it off I extend my trip by 24 hours so that I can have a day for myself to dig deeper into this place. I do so by choosing one neighborhood per visit in which to spend each of those 24 hours, as it allows me to really get to know both that neighborhood and some of the people who live there. On my last visit, I decided to spend my time exploring Collierville. I hadn't been there, but had heard a lot about it. I wasn't concerned about lodging, either, as my trusty HotelTonight app would find me a Collierville Memphis hotel as soon as I was ready to call it a day and get some sleep.
The Square
When you drive into Collierville, you immediately feel as though you are driving into an old southern town, complete with all of its historic charm and hospitality. The entire community seems to be built around its main square, and it's one of those old-time squares in which you can visualize the people there gathering to discuss important issues of the day. I walked around the square a bit just to take in the vibe that emanates from it. I got to talk to a few people who were there as well and was amazed at how genuinely nice and friendly all of them were.
The Shopping
The shopping in Collierville is also a testament to how it has hung onto its history in a totally tasteful and quaint manner. I strolled through a few antique stores and even had a cup of tea with one of the store owners that I began to chat with while browsing. I bought some clothing that never would have been found near my home and grabbed some gifts that would make the days of the friends and family members. It was a lot of fun.
The Food
I have to admit that I am a total sucker for fried chicken; however, I'm also pretty picky when it comes to this truly American dish. I don't like grease and I don't like cheap chicken. I was happy to find a place nearby that served it and wish I could've taken the entire restaurant home with me. The chicken was clean, crisp, tender and juicy and the skin had a spice to it that brought some heat but that was not overwhelming.
