I have go brag on this hotel. We stayed here because we were going to a show at the Orion. The walk was so easy and it was great not to have to sit in traffic leaving the event. The location is convenient to a lot in the area. The hotel was clean and the beds were so comfy I wanted to stay an extra night. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. I had emailed with a special request and the staff accommodated us. We also ate at the restaurant on site and it was really good and service was great! We’ll definitely be returning the next time we visit Huntsville.

The area the property was in was excellent. Hotel itself wasn’t great but not awful. Our floor was damp and the walls were very thin so could hear everything.

Wonderful Location

I booked this hotel because me and my daughter were going to a concert at the Orion amphitheater. Many restaurants are only a 5 minute walk from the hotel. And the Orion is only another 5 minutes walk. Wonderful location for going to the Orion

Great Place.

The location is great for walking places and there is a pretty good walking trail to follow. There are plenty of things to eat around without having to use a car. The pool is both inside and outside with the option to swim outside under a walk bridge.

This is an older hotel in a great location. Our room had the normal wear and tear of an older hotel, but it was clean and comfortable. We stayed here because of the location and were easily able to walk to a concert at the amphitheater. I will definitely choose to stay here again if we are back in Huntsville.

Stay

What i didn't like was that I stayed on vip 5th floor. Didn't know and wasn't explained I had special things to do in that floor so I didn't use them. Wasn't told how to get to the floor so I rode up and down about 5times until another patron told me I had to use my key to get there. Didn't know about the bar until Fri on the fifth floor so I didn't use it because it's not open. You mentioned welcome gift didn't receive one. . I don't know if this hotel is use to fam reunions but there were two reunions and that would be loud and an employee came to make us quiet and wanted us to leave the lobby this is what family is about. Maybe you shouldnt host two reunions at the same time.
