Location
The Big Cypress Lodge is conveniently located close to everything and downtown, making it easy to access all that Memphis has to offer. Guests rave about the awesome location with views from the top being described as AMAZING. The free shuttle bus into town is another major plus, along with the restaurant on the top of the building. Cabin-like features add a unique touch to the lodging and paying extra for a room with a balcony overlooking the Bass Pro Shop is worth it. The scenery is also highlighted as so beautiful and relaxing with guests able to sit on their balconies and watch the people walk around in the store. While the noise from the store may be an issue for some, the property overall is described as gorgeous and neat. Plus, the lodging is part of a shopping center with alligators, fish and a view of the city of Memphis. The hotel is in a good location, centrally located and just a quick drive away from downtown. So, if you're looking for a conveniently located and unique lodging option with great views and scenery, the Big Cypress Lodge is definitely worth considering.
Breakfast
Guests of Big Cypress Lodge have mixed reviews when it comes to breakfast options. While some praised the delicious meals they received from room service, others were disappointed that no restaurant offered breakfast or that it was not complimentary. One guest even encountered rotten bacon. There were reports that the website advertised breakfast at Walburgs Wild/Fishbowl, but some guests found that no staff or other patrons were present when they tried to eat there. For families with hungry kids, this was particularly frustrating. Some commenters wished that more food choices came with breakfast for the price, while others felt that the cost was already too high. Despite some negative feedback, there were plenty of positive remarks about the room service breakfast being delicious.
Dinner
Big Cypress Lodge offers a variety of dining options for its guests with some mixed reviews. Some guests were disappointed by the limited hours of dining and attractions, which closed at 7 pm along with the Bass Pro store. However, many guests enjoyed the food with some describing it as delicious, great and fine. On the other hand, some guests had negative experiences with food poisoning, spoiled orange juice or slow, mediocre service. Some guests suggested the lookout tower could be turned into a high-end restaurant to boost revenue. For those looking for a casual meal, Wahlberg's served good food but was sometimes hindered by slow or rude service. Overall, the food offerings at Big Cypress Lodge were varied with some great options and room for improvement in some areas.
Rooms

The bathroom is well-appointed with a wonderful rain head shower and huge spa tub that guests love.

Beds
When it comes to a good night's rest, Big Cypress Lodge doesn't disappoint. The beds at this hotel are among the most comfortable and cozy that guests have ever experienced. A few guests mentioned some minor football-related accidents due to the low height of the bed frames, but overall the mattresses themselves were top-notch. Guests appreciated the excellent quality of sleep they received with many raving about how comfortable the beds were. However, some guests felt that the pillows provided didn't meet their standards. Overall, if you're seeking a fantastic night's sleep during your stay at Big Cypress Lodge, you won't be disappointed.

Additionally, the valet parking service was praised as being very reliable and some guests even received free valet service.
