We stayed here while my son was visiting the University of Alabama. Our room was nice, the pool was clean and there were even toys in the pool for my younger son. The breakfast area is huge. In other hotels, it seems like the breakfast area has gotten smaller and smaller. More

Let me begin by saying that this property In the past was always my property of choice when booking a hotel in Tuscaloosa. My husband, however, has recently opted for another Hilton property - Hilton Garden Inn - in another part of the city. But being the fabulous husband that he is, he let me choose my now "former favorite"... More

I want to apologize to SouthernBelle79 that her stay did not live up to her expectations. The management and staff of the Hampton Inn Tuscaloosa - University work very hard to maintain an excellent product for our guest and we are always sadden to learn that we failed to meet our guests' expectations. I would like to say that just... More

Overall, the hotel was great. We enjoyed staying there. There was ample parking, decent continental breakfast, the rooms were clean and smelled fine. The bathroom was clean. It had a small refrigerator for storing cold things...and they had a nice little place downstairs where they sold drinks, snacks, etc. It's real close to everything and just off the interstate, but...

We are Alabama University football season tickets holders. We stay here every home game from Friday to Sunday. Great service! We are offered complementary soft drinks/water and pop corn every Friday night. Upon arrival in the room another bottle of water and a pack of chocolate chip cookies awaits for you along with the program for Saturday football. After every... More

Confusing to find from the highway even though you can easily see it. The best access is actually the "back" way on the east side of the hotel. Once you are familiar with the back way, it's really very easy getting in and out. Easy to get to the University in about 5 minutes by car. The hotel was redone... More

Good location for U of Alabama visits. People were nice. Parking very good.Maps to university were helpful. Toiletries in room were excellent. Towels soft and beds comfortable. Our experience with Hamptons has been better in the past. The room smelled like burned hair and this was due to heater being newly turned on. Beds were comfortable. There were very limited... More

We only stay at Hampton Inns. This one has an incredible staff-day and night. We have stayed here 8 nights on 2 occasions and both times the young staff are always smiling and helpful. Never seen such nice young people. We have family that we visit in Tuscaloosa, but most occupants were high school students visiting University of Alabama or... More

No real complaints here. I stayed here after the hotel we originally picked (Hampton Inn Tuscaloosa-East) was 10miles away. We called the previous hotel as we had a room there for $68 and explained our situation about the location, and surprisingly was able to move us to this Hampton when we saw it's location. We are Hilton Gold VIP's and... More

I traveled to Tuscaloosa as part of a research project run by the University of Alabama. This is my second trip there and they choose the hotel. The Hampton Inn was execellent in all the above mentioned categories. The location was minutes away from where my meetings were held, and also from any other shops and restaurants I wanted to...
