“Old but really nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

I had my daughter's 13th birthday party here. Everyone loved the place. When I asked for something I was helped with a smile. The beds were really comfortable so much so when I laid down I was out. The view from our room was amazing. The TV and chairs are out dated but it is an older hotel. I didn't like the idea that I had to pay to park but if that money helps them renovate the place so next time I go back it will only be better I don't mind paying $9. The other part my daughter didn't like is that I didn't allow her to use the wi-fi cause I didn't want to pay for it. We just came up with other things to do. All in All one of the nicest places I have stayed at.

“Very disappointed”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012

Myself and some friends went for a bachelorette weekend and wanted to get a nice place for the bride. Boy were we embarrassed, this place was disgusting. Checked in on Friday evening and was shocked to see how much parking was, even for self parking, unless of course you wanted to walk half a mile to your car. The room was filthy, some sort of stains on the lamp shades, floors not vacuumed, light fixtures literally falling out of the walls. I spoke with the manager who moved us next to a room with a barking dog. This room had mildew in the sink and stains on both chairs, equally disgusting as the first. Management caused us to miss our dinner reservations while they "sent" someone to help us change rooms. No wi-fi for a luxury hotel? I asked management for a refund so we could just stay somewhere else and was refused. Our room included a continental breakfast and all he said he could do was upgrade our breakfast, or change rooms again. The whole hotel smelled of must or mildew. The on-duty manager promised to have the GM call me on Saturday which never happened. The only positive was the valet service and concierge staff. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to my worst enemy.

To BJtomlin;

We are sorry that you and your bachorette party had a dissappointing stay at our hotel and am sorry that you didnt get to meet with me in person on your departure. I do appreciate your very objective comments and although we didnt seem to find quite the same degree of lack of room maintenance as described we did take that room out of order and completly do a work over on it. We do apologize that you got an unsatisfactory room during this stay. As you are aware the hotel will undergo a complete renovation towards the end of the year that will improve the dated appearance of the hotel.

Again, our apology for a less than satisfactory stay.

“Best hotel south of Birmingham”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I stayed at the Wynfrey Hotel during a business trip on January 24 & 25th. This is a high-end hotel with great clean rooms, comfortable beds and a very friendly staff. I had business meetings most of the day and with this hotel connected to a great mall if gave my wife something to do while I was attending meetings.

The next time I travel to the area I will definitely stay here again.

Dear Gcloss;

Thank you very much for taking the time from your busy schedule to post a review of your recent stay at the Wynfrey. We are very glad to know that you enjoyed your stay with us. Being attached to the mall is certainly an advantage for meeting attendees who bring their spouse with them so that they can enjoy the incredible shopping while the meeting and convention are going on. Glad to know you enjoyed the sleep in our Wynfrey beds. We look forward to your return in the future.

Sincerely,

Stayed at the Wynfrey for 2 nights this week. Joined my husband on a business trip. Loved the idea that it was within the Riverchase Mall. The room was mostly clean. There were a few worn areas. The bed was comfortable. The people working here were very courteous and helpful. I love the people in the south! Had dinner in the hotel located resturaunt, Shulas Steak House. This was very enjoyable place to stay for a few nights.

“Awesome hotel.”

My family and I stayed at The Wynfrey during the holidays and have stayed there many times before. It is the only hotel I would stay in or recommend to stay in during a stay in Birmingham. The rooms and the service are excellent. The staff are awesome there also.
