The Grammy Museum Mississippi is located a short 35 minute drive from our front door in Cleveland, Mississippi. Drive down in the mid-morning and enjoy a stroll around the museum, ; drop by Dockery Plantation for a quick see as you head back to Clarksdale by 3:30pm - 4:00pm for a rest. Then it's restaurants galore, live "real deal" Mississippi Delta Blues (365 days/year), bars and shopping all within a 5 minute walk from the Hooker Hotel front door. No reason to drive.........leave your car parked out front of your guest suite and stroll from venue to venue and enjoy.

This place wins for location! Walkable to many restaurants and music venues. We didn't do any cooking as we were just there one night and had to leave early the following morning. The bedrooms were comfy with great ceiling fans, and the shower is large. Will stay again!
