Pearl is a nice area. Jamison Inn is managed by a girl from DS, big Tiger fan.

Does the Renaissance have a hotel? Been a while since I've been in that area, but I remember it is really nice with some restaurants he could sit at and drink.

Stay in the Renaissance area of Ridgeland. You have 3 hotels to choose from (Embassy, Hilton's new suites and Hyatt), and several restaurants that are walking distance within the Renaissance shopping area (Ruth Chris, Mint, Biaggis, others lower in price, etc). Many more restaurants within a 2 mile drive.

a few options
downtown (yes it's ok to stay there)
king edward hotel
-close to parlor market and la finestra
for good dinner options
-close to underground 119 for drink options
if you don't want to stay downtown check out highland colony parkway in ridgeland. there's an embassy suites and hyatt place. decent food options at township which is close to both (sombra, soulshine pizza). you are also close to renaissance which has mint, ruth's chris. revolution is opening there in a few months.
the north end of highland colony has a hilton garden inn (madison) which is walking distance to local 463 (fantastic food), bonefish, and georgia blue.
there are cool restaurants and bars in fondren but no hotels within walking distance. cabot lodge is next to millsaps but would still require driving. fondren public, babalu, walkers, and pig and pint are in this area.

I would stay at one of the hotels near Renaissance in Ridgeland and just go to one of the restaurants bars. Renaissance at Colony Park

Hi Milo,
I would recommend staying at either the King Edward Hilton downtown or the Hyatt Place at Renaissance.
Downtown is active during the day but pretty quiet at night. I work downtown and feel safe enough to walk around everywhere for lunch. My favorites are:
Steve's
Adobo
Elite
Lurney D's foodtruck
Parlor Market
Wasabi
Here's a link to everything downtown as far as food n drink goes: LINK
Hyatt place at Renaissance at Colony Park has food and shopping options in a walking distance
They have:
Ruth's
Five guys
MINT
biaggi
Another broken egg
PF changs
Sweet peppers
Here's a link
LINK
However, if you think you would be actually staying here for like 6+ months, you could look at getting an apt at Fondren Corner. It's the place to be for single people.
