Admiral Hotel

Alabama


A gorgeous 1940s art deco style building contains the legendary Admiral, now managed by the folks at Hilton. Rooms have a mid-century executive aesthetic going on, with muted earth tones and clean lines. Lots of modern amenities, a smart, Gatsby-esque lobby and snap-to-it service make this one of the city's better corporate hotel options.
