It's in a very pedestrian friendly area, too. The staff were also very polite and professional. We were able to receive and return our key without any issues. I can definitely picture coming back here again next year!"

Comfort Inn & Suites Gulf Shores East Beach near Gulf State Park

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at this hotel 3 times within a year - I like this place this much."

Embassy Suites By Hilton Gulf Shores Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at this property for a conference. The support staff was extremely attentive to details to make sure all attendees stayed comfortable and enjoyed their time there. The front desk staff was very friendly and fun to converse with. The breakfast staff was personable and kind, making sure everything was up to par and satisfactory. My only complaint was the bedding had an odor, the floor was dirty (I remove my shoes upon entering), and I found a pretzel from a previous guest on the floor next to the bed. Staff gets 5/5 stars from me, but the cleaning could use just a little improvement."
