This gorgeous old pile of a house in Victorian Village brings back the romance and splendor of a bygone era, with the five-star updates travelers demand of a high-end B&B. The house, a Victorian Italianate treasure, has been painstaking restored by an ambitious couple, with five lush suites made for love. The house, which served as the Memphis College of Arts until the college moved to Overton Park in the late 1950s, features plaster trim, plaster ceiling medallions, shaped moldings and marble mantels throughout, with modern updates including marble bathrooms, LED televisions, gorgeous antiques and fine linens. Bathrooms include modern versions of claw foot tubs.

- Best for Downtown Hotels Because: The James Lee isn't in the central business district - but it's a great romantic alternative for downtown lovers.
