Amazing Stay! Cool hotel!
Our stay at The Admiral was absolutely amazing! The hotel is still undergoing some renovations but our room was fantastic. The beds were very comfortable and the room was filled with beautiful art. We had an amazing view of downtown Mobile. The common area spaces are also well designed with cool art. The hotel is walking distance to some great restaurants as well. We stayed with our two young kids and it was perfect.

The hotel was excellent but very disappointed about there not being any parking for guest. The parking garage next to hotel was an additional $50 plus tax. That was the only disappointing thing but other then parking issue the hotel is excellent for Mardi Gras.

Even with the renovations, during Mardi Gras this hotel was amazing. The shower was my favorite, wish i could have taken it with me. The bed was like a cloud. And the artwork. Lets get onto that because i wasn't ready. Purple is my favorite color and it with the sculpture piece made me feel like I wasn't in Mobile.
