    the original battle house hotel was built on the site of general andrew jackson's headquarters during the war of 1812. the battle house was built in 1852 and hosted some famous guests such as henry clay, stephen a. douglas, millard fillmore, and jefferson davis. the battle house was destroyed by fire in 1905 and the current hotel was rebuilt in 1908. recently this property was bought by the marriott corporation and has been completely renovated. since this hotel is owned by marriott you can expect all of the amenities of this better chain. for those interested in history and southern culture the battle house is an excellent place to stay in downtown mobile.

  • We stay here during Mardi Gras. Got 2 nights this coming year for $339 per night- worth it!
    This place is romantic! We had a second honeymoon; there is something about this place. We had made reservations almost 6 months before and were exhausted from too much Mardi Grasing. We had a great time.

    Make sure you request the Historic part of the hotel. Bathrooms are so nice with separate tub and shower, all black marbled with yellow fleur de lis wallpaper. Huge rooms with separate sitting area. Really a suite for a regular room price!

    But the lobby is the real star! Go to the second floor to try the "whispering arches". You can hear your partner whispering. If you get in the elevator and go to 8th floor, you can see over Mobile skyline and all the trees,, etc.

    Instead of eating in the Trellis Room, try the bar- it's faster in there. I have to say I'm not wild about the food. It's very cosmopolitan type of food.

    They are supposed to get a spa and pool by about now , I think.
    24 hour room service.
    On the Mardi Gras route ,but you can still get to Dauphin Street easily even during a parade.

    Stained glass roof in lobby- WOW!!!! Also in the trellis room!!!

    Close to some cute shops on Dauphin: Areas and Bienville Books
    Also good restaurant right there on corner, Cafe something.

    Also close to Exploreum, Museum of Mobile, and Fort Conde (free information center). Head south on Royal- they are on Royal just past Government Street.
