3-Star Hotels in Birmingham

The first room was ok but the second had unfinished fixings inside and holes in the carpet

My main reason for coming to Birmingham was to visit the civil rights sites but staying a couple of nights in a late 19th century mansion was a nice bonus in the middle of a long road trip. The house is certainly beautiful and the location is quite nice. There are a couple of upscale restaurants in the neighborhood (Five Points), a real good bbq place and a bunch of standard fast food places. I found there was plenty of parking behind the building (the parking lot belongs to the mansion) and it was a convenient, quick drive to the civil rights sites. The breakfast both mornings was ample and delicious. I found it to be a relaxing two days.

This was our third time at this hotel went back because we enjoyed ourselves the previous two times hotel was the same as before could get a sunbed any time of day the food was well prepared pizzas were great can be receptive but always something to eat, maybe the rooms need a little updating but very clean. Was able to keep room late on last day when asked, all staff worked really hard all day. The location is great not as busy as some resorts but enough going on to enjoy yourself. The only negative from previous years was entertainment with was run by one entertainer which didn't seem interested never seen her only walking around talking to lifeguards, the hotel board said in morning three activities a day but in 7 days play pool and darts on one day rest of week only a lazy game obviously her specialty me and my son enjoy pool entertainment which we have done at hotel before which helps people get together and get to know the entertainment staff which is why we went back. The last few days the entertainer left and was replaced, and things improved a little late for us probably would try a new location for next holiday just let down by the entertainment and had to go out of night which if full inclusive defeats the idea of buying drinks, but Rock Cafe if like the music is a good night out .

I am usually pretty easing going when it comes to reviews. I booked this room based of the name Tapestry. I love some other in the area but decided to try The Kelly. Never again. First, Staff were amazing and that’s it. Richardo and James. Room: 1207 Very dirty on check in. See photos. Bottled Waters had been refilled and top screwed on. Not fresh and I was just floored that housekeeping would do this. Floor in the bathroom was so sticky and not clean. The shower had mold. Towels were dirty. The bed was dirty. I called and James sent housekeeping up to change the sheets. She didn’t touch the duvet. Which I think had feces on it. Idk. The phone didn’t work. The shower was room temp and it was awful. I just wanted a hot shower. I ran it too for a while. The bed and mattress is hard as a rock. I came home with my pillows to find a roach on one of my pillows. The hotel is old and not remodeled. Given it is a very very old building Hilton has put bandaids on so much from lights to fixtures and paint. Carpet and elevators disgusting and sticky and dirty. Noise! Awful. Multiple train tracks on one window side. The other windows constant drag racing at all hours of the night. Crappy night sleep. Bar: The wine was fine. Menu looked not appetizing at all. I ate elsewhere. Hilton needs to figure this out. Doing an injustice to its employees and hotel guests.

This Holiday Inn Express was able to check us in at 11am when we arrived instead of the usual 3pm. This is a fairly new hotel . . . modern, spotless, well-lit lobby and initially everything seemed to work as it should. Then lots of little things went awry (locked out of our room during our 5-nite stay, flickering lamp, not all breakfast food available, mini-frig froze our food, towels not available, trash not emptied), though everything except breakfast was corrected when the front desk was notified. Receptionist Jennifer was particularly helpful . . . a model of professionalism, smarts and courtesy. Our main disappointment was the poor lighting in the room which seems to be the way at most hotels. Still, the location is great . . . just off I-65, 15 minutes from downtown and the staff helpful. And the brightly lit breakfast area became a perfect spot for late afternoon Scrabble games. We would stay here again.

This was my fourth stay with Homewood Suites near UAB. And like all the other times, it was amazing! When I walked in to check in, the young lady actually recognized me from my last visit and reminded me of my Hilton Honors, which I had forgotten about, and gave me a complimentary bag with 2 bottled waters and treats! Very welcoming! The complimentary breakfast was phenomenal! So many items of variety to choose from! The young lady over the breakfast area came by my table to make sure everything was OK. We spoke about my trip. Very friendly and kind to me and other guests. They even have a manager's reception during the evenings (unfortunately I wasn't able to attend) When I checked out, Tracy greeted me with smile and asked if everything was to my liking, which I responded Yes! I always enjoy my stay with Homewood! Which is true, the rooms and views are spectacular! Mine was a king size bed with a sofa that let's out to a good size bed. Spacious bathroom area, and a kitchenette fully equipped with a counter top stove, microwave, good size refrigerator, coffee/tea maker, dishes, pots and pans even a garbage disposal. Homewood near UAB is definitely my go to place, my home away from. I highly recommend Homewood to anyone for their stay while in town. The staff team are A+

This was a great place to stay that was in downtown Birmingham and close to Children’s Hospital where we needed to go. The room was clean and comfortable. The bed was a little too soft, but the room was great other than that. The hot breakfast was also great and had several options. We would definitely stay here again!

I chose this facility due to proximity to the airport and shuttle service from the airport. Even though it was listed as a service, I was not able to get a shuttle but fortunately was able to get a rental car. It would not be safe to try to walk from the airport. In general, the hotel was not as clean as I would expect for a Ramada. The shower drained very poorly and I stood in water. The shower curtain let water out onto the bathroom floor even though I felt it was pulled all the way to the front and back. The floor had water all across it and I used the towels to dry most of it.
