Top Glen Iris Hotel Reviews

Drury Inn & Suites Birmingham Grandview

10/10 Excellent

"I was so impressed with this property. The room was clean and comfortable, staff was friendly and helpful and breakfast was delicious. We didn’t get to take advantage of the evening kickback due to our plans but everything looked so inviting. I will definitely rebook and recommend Drury!"

The Painted Lady

8/10 Good

"Nice but basically an unattended VBRO. Have a number to call for “emergencies”. No mention our room was on 3rd floor with no elevator until we arrived. No coffee or tea pods available (any floor) Monday am but staff had clearly added water to the common area(s) Keurig. No response to texts sent to Ashely about pods or checkout. Parking lighting didn’t always work. Parking is lot that says hotel only but there is nowhere to register your car- so how do you know it won’t be towed? Door to room allowed a lot of light into room from hallway all night. Bed was comfortable. Location was convenient. Restaurants nearby are amazing. Upon leaving there was a sign to text a number to checkout. Would have been nice to have a text prompt or heads up before making you way to first floor w all your bags to then have to unload and text to a number only to have no reply. Hotel seemed overpriced. Wish reviews had reflected this info."

Drury Inn & Suites Birmingham Lakeshore Drive

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first stay with Drury and, wow, we were impressed. Great facility. Friendly staff. Excellent amenities including a FREE cocktail hour and dinner. We didn’t expect it to actually be dinner but it was, saving us the need to go dine elsewhere."

Homewood Suites by Hilton Birmingham Downtown Near UAB

8/10 Good

"I did not like that the hotel placed a hold of 421.00 on my card for a room that I prepaid 291.00 for. When I asked the desk clerk couldn’t explain past it is our policy. And the complimentary breakfast was totally below par. Then ran out of several essential items during breakfast time"
