What guests think

At Embassy Suites by Hilton Tuscaloosa Alabama Downtown, many guests praise the friendly staff, walkable location near the university and restaurants, and the complimentary breakfast with made‑to‑order omelets plus an evening reception offering drinks and snacks.

Suites are spacious and comfortable for many, but some report dated décor, noise from the busy intersection, uncomfortable beds or pillows, and occasional Wi‑Fi or A/C issues. Cleanliness is frequently applauded, though multiple reviews cite bathroom mold, missed housekeeping, or strong cleaning odors. Renovations and maintenance sometimes affect amenities—hot tub closures, cloudy or heavily chlorinated pool, limited parking at times, and occasional construction disruption. Expect a convenient stay with standout service and breakfast, tempered by periodic maintenance or service inconsistencies.

The lobby/suite/common areas were beautiful and clean. The staff was extraordinary. The location is perfect. We walked everywhere we wanted to go. The ONLY negative I have, and it’s a big one because I ALWAYS look for a pool (& hot hub when possible). A pool is a must have. We walked to the pool area to take a look and the pool was AWFUL! It was cloudy, not clear. It looked disgusting. And unfortunately we did not get to enjoy the pools.

We was set on getting in the hot tub but when we got there it was covered up. We was never told that it was out of service on the webpage.

The wallpaper was peeling in the bedroom, there were all kinds of smudges and hand smudges on the white doors to the bathroom. The toilet was crooked, and you could see the caulking outline from when it was straight. The parking was extremely limited, and only two handicap spots available, and being disabled , that was a major inconvenience. The hot tub was down, and the pools chlorine was so strong, it burned our eyes as the room doesn’t seem to be well venerated. We loved the breakfast, and the staff was wonderful, accommodating and pleasant. The bed was the best sleep I’ve ever had in a hotel. I wish I could have kept a pillow. I loved them. The pull out couch was also not bad, but you had to make it yourself. I love the fact that the complimentary bath products provided were chemical free, dye free , and fragrance free. That stood out to me well. And the hot tea available for breakfast provided with milk and honey, chefs kiss. Overall, it was a great place to stay, just needs notice to a few areas. We stayed in room 715.

They didnt have the jetted tub as listed, they did construction at like 7am and ruined the experience there. For the price ill probably never return was pretty disappointed to be woke up that way. You could hear the construction and saw/sanding or something bright and early.

The first room was not clean. There was dry urine around the toilet, there were dust balls everywhere and countertop was dusty. We were offered a new room and points for our inconvenience. The second room was better. The carpet had red stains all over it. But it was cleaner than the last room. At least the beds are comfortable. The hot tub is out of commission so please don’t book if you want that luxury. Also, the pool wasn’t as clean as it should be. There are broken chairs sitting at the bar table in pool area. Pool or room isn’t heated as well. The complimentary drinks at 5:30 was cool. Was advised that the hotel will be having renovations in the near future. Just not what I expected for a high end hotel in Tuscaloosa with the school and all.

Overall, hotel was dirty (floors, shower, etc). Room had two beds… one reeked like it had just been used by female with a hygiene problem. We asked for another room but were told there was nothing else available (parking lot was not even half full). Hotel manager sent housekeeping to change our sheets but smell remained. Housekeeping acknowledged smell and returned with Lysol but once again, smell remained. We intended to stay 3 days but checked out that morning. Management did not seem to care. I travel regularly and usually stay in Hilton hotels and can easily say this was the worst experience I’ve ever experienced with Hilton or Embassy Suites. Family trip we will all remember for the wrong reasons.

I've stayed here many times! I keep forgetting it's located on a busy 4-way intersection! I'm on the 7th floor in the front sideof the hotel and it's a little loud. I have 2 other guests on other floors on the back of the hotel and no complaints from them. Not a deal breaker by any means because the breakfast makes up for it! Fabulous made-to-order omelet! I love the location of this hotel because it's within walking distance of lots of fabulous places to eat!

When I checked out, the desk clerk could not give me a print out of my room charges. She said I need to get it from Expedia. I explained I paid for the room at the hotel, and that I had additional charges from the restaurant. She printed something that said $0 due , but could give me a breakdown of any charges or a receipt. She then picked up a call and started helping someone else. I never received a receipt. What kind of service is that!?

We stayed here for the 1st first to move our daughter into college. We travel a lot! The service and condition of our room was not worth $1800 for 3 nights! There was no response when we called housekeeping for more towels! The front desk wouldn’t answer either when we called for housekeeping! We will never stay here again!

Although I book with expedia, after checking in to go up to a dark hallway on their fifth floor. Walking into a room that I did not reserve. Booking a double queen bed suite, to be given a single king size bed studio. The guy at the front desk really was not trying to be accommodating until he seen me and my family were unhappy. It was until the guy whom was working housekeeping mention other rooms that was listed as dirty he would clean up for us to walk the room and notice that the room was actually clean. So they gave us a king bedroom suite. Trying to place 4 people into a king studio not so smart.

Admitting clerk spent extra time shuffling and worked it out so that we got the two adjoining rooms. We will stay here again and highly recommend.

We went to check in at 10:30pm after a day of travel and our room was not ready. We waited over an hour for housekeeping to clean a room for us. The front desk never kept us updated, I always had to go and ask for updates. We were not the only people waiting for a room either. The entire weekend we were there we never had our room refreshed or towels exchanged. Not sure if we’d stay there again.

I've stayed at this property in the past, and enjoyed everything about it. This time I need to coach you regarding breakfast: one morning the grits were cold, the next morning the pancakes were cold. Now!, I take an analysis of what was happening those mornings. The staff was doing the best that they could based on the staffing on hand. They were pulled in so many directions to keep up with the various demands. Even at this, it was a good stay.
