Press Release from
Jack Soden
President & CEO
Elvis Presley Enterprises
Wednesday, April 30th, 2014
“When we started exploring plans for long-term growth, a new hotel facility was a priority. We feel the time is right for growth at Graceland and we are excited about this proposed project, which would enable Graceland to enhance the visitor experience and deliver an even higher level of world-class hospitality and customer service to the hundreds of thousands of guests who visit from around the world each year.”
The project would provide an opportunity for Elvis Presley Enterprises to increase hiring in Memphis, and could spur needed improvements to the Elvis Presley
Boulevard corridor. Memphis-based architectural firm Hnedak Bobo Group has been working with Elvis Presley Enterprises on developing potential plans for the hotel project, which could open in August 2015. Current plans include a full-service restaurant, a sports bar lounge and meeting/event space.
