“EXCELLENT reason to stay in Mobile”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 15, 2012 via mobile

This is probably the best hotel I've ever stayed at. The room was super comfortable and clean. The only thing I disliked was the view in the Historic section of the hotel. You open the window and all you see is parking garage haha, but other than that everything was AMAZING. The service was extra helpful and nice in all areas of the hotel and the inclusion of a downstairs bar area and restaurant made our stay ideal. I definitely intend to stay here again soon!!!

“Excellent Hotel Stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 12, 2012

Honestly the town of Mobile has nothing much to do. I spent more time in this fantastic hotel more than staying outside. Plus it's below 50 degree and windy by the time I got in town.
Katie at the front desk gave me a welcoming check-in and Toni offered an excellent check-out experiences. I also love the spa and the ladies quiet room as well as the steam room. My weekend getaway was totally worth it!

Room Tip: One night staying in this little town is good enough to discover its all.

Thank you for your comments that you have shared on Trip Advisor. I appeciate your kind words.

I am glad you were able to enjoy our spa and relax a little while at the hotel.

You will need to schedule a return visit when a little warmer. There is much to discover in the city of Mobile.

Thank you for choosing the Battle House Hotel & Spa. I look forward to seeing you again in the future.

“A Fabulous Renovation for an historic hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 11, 2012

We spent the night at the Battle House last week and had a wonderful visit. The lobby is amazing and the Christmas decorations were stunning - including a giant tree in the center of the lobby. The staff was wonderful - from Tori at the front desk to the valets for our car. We went in and out a good bit and they were always there to quickly get our car for us. The room we had was in the historic area of the hotel and overlooked Royal Street. The bed and bed linens were terrific. The bed was very comfortable and everything was in great condition. The towels were thick and spotlessly white. We loved having both a wonderful deep tub and a seperate shower stall in the bathroom - which was one of the most beautiful bathrooms I have ever seen in a hotel. We ate a light supper in the casual restaurant - service and food were OK, but the music was much too loud. We also went to the bar after dinner for a drink. The bar is beautiful and the live entertainment there was nice, with a piano and singer. We had the breakfast buffet in the Trellis Room of the hotel and it was very good. All in all, I would never go to Mobile again unless I stayed at the Battle House! If it were possible to give it an even higher rating than excellent, I would.

“Best in Mobile.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

Hotel is in a great location convient to the convention center and shops downtown. Room was great and had the largest bathroom I have ever seen in a hotel and was clean as a pin. Stayed a week and used the valet parking daily with no problems. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Only thing was I had a room facing the roof.

Room Tip: Ask for a river view room

“Wonderful”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

We had a wonderful room with a nice view of the river. We had a great balcony although didn't stay there long enough to use it. The bed wasn't as comfortable as we expected but the hotel is beautiful, clean and close to downtown restaurants and events.

However, the valet parking area can be challenging if the hotel is crowded.

Room Tip: We stayed in a corner room in the new tower. It was very nice.
