Hotels in Cordova, Tennessee

A little about Cordova...

Cordova is a community located on the east side in the City of Memphis, north of Germantown, Tennessee, and northwest of Collierville, Tennessee, in Shelby County .

Much of Cordova (and some surrounding areas) have been annexed by the City of Memphis. Some of the area to its southeast is currently still unincorporated.

The two major areas of Cordova are Old Cordova Area and Wolfchase Area. The Old Cordova Area is centered around Macon and Sanga Roads, 3 miles east of Germantown Road. It consists of the former town of Cordova, with some of the original structures still present. The Wolfchase Area is not actually a part of Cordova, but named so due to association. It contains major shopping centers, businesses and apartments.

The boundaries of Cordova neighborhood are inexact but are generally regarded as the Wolf River on the south, Germantown Road on the west, Interstate 40 on the north, and Houston-Levee Road on the east. (While some consider Shelby Farms as a part of this community, it is 2-3 miles west of the community at large.)
