Beautiful hotel. The view from the window was not the greatest in the world, especially for the price that we paid. But overall, it was a good experience on a Mardi Gras weekend.

Awesome place for walking downtown Mobile

I'm not sure why I was able to get the price I got, but when I arrived at the Admiral, I felt like I got a steal. The wow factor of walking in cannot be overstated. It's a truly classic, historic place that has fully embraced Mobile's history. The service was incredible at every step. My room was clean and comfortable. While I didn't take advantage of the amenities, the onsite bar and restaurant looked extremely nice.

Classy stay in Mobile

Beautiful property, very elegant,nice art throughout including the corridors on the room levels. Beds very comfortable, rooms well decorated, clean, great aroma in the room. Delightful front desk clerk name Englund checked me in . I liked that they had liquid creamer in teh rooms for coffee instead of that awful powdered mess. The coffee service in the room was very nice with delicious coffee and bottled water was provided to brew coffee. I would stay here again. My only negative was $50 per night for valet parking unreasonable. The living room/bar was wonderful as was the burger and fries I ordered. The lady bartender was so nice.

Great Hotel!

This is a beautiful hotel with super friendly staff! I enjoyed the location, food and the tv options. Parking was a bit of a pain but it’s my fault to drive in during a parade.
