Top Tuscaloosa River Walk Hotel Reviews

Embassy Suites by Hilton Tuscaloosa Alabama Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great overall ambiance!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Tuscaloosa University

10/10 Excellent

"I liked most everything about this hotel except : we heard a lot of traffic noise from the interstate. The shower was a drizzle of pressure so that was a little disappointing. Also, the gentleman who checked us in was very nice but stepped away into a back room during check in to "scan my license," .......when I asked why, he said something about being so close to the interstate they had to monitor for human trafficking....I did not understand this response and thought it odd. All that being said, it was a nice enough stay, the bed was comfortable and the room was clean."
