With many fascinating exhibits about a wide range of subjects, a visit to Gulf Coast Exploreum is a great day out for the whole family.

Pay the admission charge and spend a while discovering this leading display of scientific achievements. If time permits, see what else is around the urban neighborhood of Central Business District. Gulf Coast Exploreum is a crowd favorite, but USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park, History Museum of Mobile and National African American Archives and Museum are pretty special too!

7.2/10 Good! (564 reviews)
5 stars are not enough,to rate the whole staff of the hotel. 10 stars is a better and more accurate rating. The only issue was the fact that the swimming pool was not open and available for use. Other than that, everything was excellent
