Best Hotels near Heritage Antique Mall, Foley

The Hot tub was not working.

I have been a Hilton Honors member for many years. Hampton Inn is my preferred facility within the organization, and I have stayed at these facilities across the nation. The reason is that you get the same experience whether in Billings, Birmingham or Dodge City. It is our home away from home. The Foley, Alabama inn is classic in every way. It is well maintained, quiet, staffed with friendly people and easily accessed. Perfect.

We make an ”impromptu” stop at this hotel during a side-trip on our summer road trip. It ended up being one of the best parts of our trip...so good that we intended to stay one night, but ended up changing our schedule and stayed two nights. The friendly folks working at the desk to greet you really take this hotel above and beyond. Stephanie at the desk was super, super helpful, and made us feel so welcome and appreciated from the minute we got there. She is a gem! The front desk manager was also so kind and especially accommodating in helping us extend our stay without changing rooms. This is a great hotel--here are the things we LOVED: -Comfortable rooms that are smartly designed --I love the bathrooms at Springhill Suites! -Location! This hotel is located a short and safe walk from a fun entertainment/shopping district called The Wharf. There are several great bars and restaurants here. -WE SAW DOLPHINS FROM OUR HOTEL ROOM WINDOW!! Just amazing! You can also hop on a dolphin cruise boat right outside the hotel at the marina. *Hotel guests get a discount on tickets too! -The pool area is gorgeous! -The hotel is not on the beach, but we drove to the beach and it was only about 7 minutes away. Beautiful beaches! -The famous Flora-Bama bar is just a short and reasonably priced Uber ride away. We saw several fun bands there--and had some great cocktails at their beach bar. Arrive before 6 pm and there is no cover charge. -The breakfast is pretty good--above average for a hotel breakfast. Great coffee! We travel quite a lot, and we love Springhill Suites, but this particular location goes above and beyond to make guest comfortable. We HIGHLY recommend this location and we will definitely be back--for a longer stay this time!

I'm not a big fan of the Courtyard by Marriott brand - my company books my travel, so I wind up staying at them more often than I would choose if I could control it. The room was small and cramped. Front desk staff was fine. Check-in was a breeze. I hate when the side doors don't lock, though. That feels creepy to me. Internet speeds for the enhanced internet were around 40-45 mbps, so that's good. The A/C was a wall unit, controlled at the unit itself rather than by the thermostat elsewhere in the room. As a real plus (earns an extra star for this, actually) the room included a microwave and a fridge! Woohoo! Good luck trying to find somewhere to plug in your laptop at the desk. Both outlets were taken - one for the desk lamp and the other for the coffeemaker.

We had the best bartender at the pool bar whole on vacation. Carrie was so friendly and helpful when we wanted to know about the the drinks, she really made the trip for us! The hotel and park are beautiful, and we had so much fun! What a wonderful, relaxing place to have a fun week.
