The staff at the front desk and the valet were very professional, friendly and helpful. The cleaning people were too. We enjoyed our stay at the Admiral!
The Living Room Lounge was amazing. Great cocktails. The staff at the hotel were super nice and helpful. The hotel is in walking distance of many places.
Such an amazing location, lovely amenities, stellar staff, and comfy beds! Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in town - so much history surrounding the place, too!!! 10/10 and looking forward to visiting again!
Very nice place! Just lacking more TVs for watching football with others downstairs. 1 to 2 blocks away from shops & sports bars on Dauphine St. The beautiful Basilica & parks with large running fountains are walking distance also.
What a great, historic hotel in downtown Mobile. I really enjoyed my stay. The staff was warm and welcoming, the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. The location is great for wandering around downtown. I would go back here in a heartbeat
