An Iconic Hotel in the Heart of Mobile

Now that the renovations have completed, The Admiral is an iconic gem in the heart of downtown Mobile. My wife and I were there to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The staff made sure that the flowers I had ordered were placed in the room ahead of time which was a nice touch. This is our second time staying there and I anticipate many more.

Very Positive Experience

The hotel was fantastic. The location was spectacular. Everything was perfect except I do prefer a room in which the toilet area is separate from the sink and shower area.

Morning desk clerk...

Morning desk clerk was a little blunt, but the valet guy made up for it even though we didn't valet park. He was very considerate and nice! Maybe the morning desk clerk was having a bad morning but everything else was excellent!
