Holiday Inn Historic Downtown Mobile Review

Good location for business in the government plaza; the top floor lounge was really nice at night.

The hotel was beautiful and had a very good price. The staff was friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. My room was on the 15th floor and had a great view. The restaurant on the first floor had delicious breakfast and dinner. My favorite part was the sky view lounge. The bar tending staff is very friendly and the lounge has the best view of the city and the water. We would definitely stay here again.

Food was good but overpriced for what it was. But the service was quick and helpful

Had a good stay. Parking is $8 fyi. Didn't check out any of the amenities.

Staff was fantastic. I understand they are in the process of renovating rooms, I'm certain had I stayed in one of those this would be a 5. Wonderful stay.

Front night manager charged us twice for our room. Ex peeks even called them to have them remove second charge and he denied them also!! He should not work in a customer service field. Room was big but outdated and AC wouldn't work properly. Glass was paper thin because you could hear every truck at 4:30 in the morning when they were picking up trash. This is about a 3 star hotel and should lower prices. Won't stay at ANY Holliday Inn again due to customer service.

Service was excellent;any requests were answered promptly. Room was clean and bed was comfortable.You can hear the cars driving by since it is downtown.

Friendly staff. Visited the Sky Lounge located on the 17th floor. Great atmosphere.

The hotel was nice and the rooms were clean. The only downside was having to pay for parking though it was only $7. I didn't go to the restaurant or have breakfast.

Hotel was great and clean. Would have been nice to have a coffee shop in lobby, but it wouldn't have been open at 5 when I left.

Awesome views no matter where your room is located. You can get a view of the city and the lights at night or a view overlooking the water. Nice rooms, within walking distance of all the major bars and restaurants downtown and is the place to be during Mardi gras.

Best place to stay when going to a Mardi Gras ball.

The service was nice but the sausage was cold and the scrambled eggs a little too runny for my liking.

We were part of a wedding party in one of the ballrooms. I found the facilities most agreeable.

This hotel is very nice, this was the second time we stayed here. Beds are high and have nice linens and seemed like new fluffy pillows. We used the third floor pool and it was clean and nice. We couldn't find any vending machines then discovered a little store with all that stuff in the lobby. Would stay here again, convenient to the battleship.

I have no complaints, only include programming in Spanish on TV

Super hotel ... Comfortable and Well located ... The spectacular sky View ...

Pretty modest rooms for how "fancy" the lobby looks. The beds and pillows were very comfortable.

The staff is always so helpful and friendly. The events coordinator for the ball room, Michelle, has been awesome throughout the duration of time working with my bride. I look forward to many more events with the Holiday Inn and it's overly professional staff. Thank you again for a great experience. I will recommend several others to you.

Went to Skyview for drinks with friends. Has a low key vibe with a great view of the city.

Wonderful Staff, Convenient Location, Impressive Amenities

Nice rooms & a excellent lounge on the top floor with super view thru the glass wall.

Horrible absolutely horrible. Never have I ever met a manager as rude as Ron oaks. Very horrible I don t advise anyone to ever stay here.

Great location! Very clean. Our room had a microwave and refrigerator which is very convenient! Great price!

Never had this happen before. We arrived and checked in. Went to the room and had the coffees that we're in the room. Went down to the front desk and asked for some more for the morning. Was told they could only give 2 more. I mean really.....

It was a nice hotel to stay in a mobile for the night.

Had credit card trouble while I was there they worked with me to get it paid. was a good stay.

It is an older hotel but the staff is very friendly and the rooms were very clean we had a excellent View and I would stay there again

The circular shape of the hotel offers some spectacular views of Mobile. Nice amenities, as you expect from the Holiday Inn chain but not overly luxurious. Good breakfast in the morning downstairs (not free, but a good buffet that isn't overly priced). In walking distance of lots of downtown activities and restaurants.

It was really nice. We were walking around mobile and wandered in.

Stayed at this hotel for a conference. We stayed two nights. The rooms and hallways/ common areas were clean and kempt. The bathroom area was a little small. We went up to the sky lounge both nights. The first night we had a great experience the bartender was very helpful (Libby). She helped us pick drinks and she turned on some music when we requested it. The next night we went back and had a completely different experience. The bartender was bland, and when we asked for some more upbeat music she pretty much said I don't want to deal with changing it. We spent under $20 versus the night before where we had spent much more!!! Also we ate breakfast at the hotel, the food was good but the service was lacking.

Rooms are average. Lobby is not welcoming,no coffee offered unless you want to buy it from the restaurant and staff was rude. Over priced, I will not stay
here again.

Room was clean and fresh customer service was excellent and the breakfast was outstanding

The location is fantastic but the hotel setup is subpar compared to the other holidays inns I stay at. Being Spire, we were upgraded to a top floor suite which was great, except there was a 40+ person family reunion being hosted on the same floor and only one functioning elevator. There was literally a sign in table and 6 people working that had to move to let us move our stroller past to go to our room. The restaurant does not serve alcohol though there is a nighclub upstairs that does. Waited 45 min for a quesadilla that consisted of a microwaved cheese slab between tortillas; and considering I find Taco bell tasty, that's saying something. That being said, they have one of the best breakfasts I've had across 100s of Holiday Inns and the building itself was beautiful.

The hotel was nice, but the service was not. We scheduled the hotel van to pick us up and it didn't. We had to pay 75 dollars for the ride to the hotel, and didn't get a refund for the vehicle that didn't pick us up. Then the manager told us that it stinks to be us. However the waitress and the chef were very welcoming. And helped with any difficulties and questions during breakfast.

Love this location!! You are in walking distance to all the restaurants and music!!!

I wouldn't visit again ,or recommend!! Too many issues with hotel and services. Room wanted Vacuum, Fridge tell gauge was broken. Drinks and food were Frozen. Drink exploded in Fridge , but the closet where you hang your clothes is half the size and it's in the bathroom!!!..Money wss taken of credit card four days before checkout. Housekeeping entered room without knocking. Manager was very nice!! But I would not visit again.

This place suck! They didn't pick my family and I up the morning we got off the cruise ship. Had pay $45 to the taxi and Holiday Inn wouldn't give me any of the money back for the taxi ride..

100% reasonable rates, the room was clean and comfy. The staff, courteous and accommodative.. there's a good ground floor resturaunt and lounge at the top floor that provides an almost 360-degree view of downtown Mobile, Alabama and the adjacent Mobile Bay. Would've never guessed a such a cool place would exist as a night-spot locally (Biloxi, MS perhaps) !!!

My fellow Mobilians, did you know there is a large, cylindrical shaped building located in the heart of the city's historic district (ground-zero for Mardi-Gras) with a supercool bar located on the 17th floor and is perfect for hosting special occasions, enjoying intimate cocktails, or just want to enjoy your favorite adult beverage outside the confines of home but hate waking up to smokey clothes and hair?

At Skyview Lounge you get a full-service bar with food menu (till 10pm) in a smoke-free environment! Not only could you enjoy a safe night out to a venue that provides a posh bar in a unique location and to not go home smelling like an ashtray?

Searching for a venue to host your next event or just a chill, intimate spot to meet the squad before venturing into L.O.D.A. for the night, please do consider stopping by Skyview Lounge! No cover + weekly drink specials

We came here last night ,because the hotel we were going to stay at (quality inn) was horrible.

The staff here was friendly and professional.
The Breakfast was great!
Our room that we stayed in was well maintained and clean!
Whenever we are in the area again. We will certainly stay here and get a view of the Gulf!
Good prices as well!

When I got there it was a really reallt really nice atmosphere

Been there several times during events. Best staff n service.

I received a gift certificate for this location for a complimentary night's stay and when I went there to use it, the staff accused me of making a false gift certificate even though it was directly from this hotel. They were extremely rude and after I got in contact with the person that gave me the certificate they still would not honor it. I will never go to a Holiday Inn and none of my business associates will go there again as well.

Amazing location. Clean and great lounge. Best view of Mobile

The location is great and the staff is friendly. The staff did not follow protocol for member. My questions went unanswered and my request for a late check out was denied, despite my club status. While checking out and complaining, the staff did say I should have been given the late check-out. The lounge on the top floor is fabulous. They did not keep food supplied well for our weekend convention-meals in the banquet room. It may have just been understaffed.

I was actually just parked there.. I was attending an event at the Saenger

Stayed here 7 nights. The carpet in our room needed deep cleaning. We wore socks and tossed them at the end of our stay. Had to call for blow dryer and refrigerator replacement both of which were promptly taken care of. The staff at the front desk and the restaurant were awesome. The room attendants not so much. Ran out of supplies, toilet paper, Kleenex, towels on various days. Not the best, nor the worst place that I have stayed in. We were there for a military reunion and they did take care of us.

The hotel was nice. The only bad thing was the smell in the room. Also in the lobby bathroom. Staff said it is because of the time of year. Happens every year.

Best place to go for Mardi-Gras. Or any downtown event.

Love staying at this hotel. The people are always nice. Never had any problems with the rooms, which are always clean. Highly recommend this hotel.

Had a couple of drinks at the sky bar. Service was swift and attentive.

The hotel was very convenient to downtown mobile..walking distance for everything. ..friendly staff....housekeeping was very wonderful...the staff in the restaraunt was very friendly very knowledgeable of mobile and surrounding areas the food was good...front desk service was good and friendly. .we stayed there because we went to the gulf shores which was about 45 minutes away the route to gulf shores was very scenic great restaraunts...a little bit of everything could have not made a better choose..thanks

Awesome time and amazingly acomidating. Sonja was amazing!

Finding my reservation, faxed in requests with personal information, and additional parking info was not found. Room smelled of dog urine. It was still nice - but they could use some help

I lived there for 2 months and the staff is very friendly

I stopped in before a Mardi Gras parade. The bar area was clean and the staff was friendly.
