“This old hotel needs a thorough remodel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 December 2011 via mobile

I stay at this property several times a year and have watched it ebb and flow over the years. The rooms were renovated about a year ago but don't begin to compare to the swanky new Westin down the street. The bathrooms are tired and small and weren't very clean on our last visit. The card key readers on the old elevators conk out intermittently and the new gym features no windows and 3 out of 5 treadmills were not in working order. Breakfast buffet was delicious.

Overall at this price point, the Westin is much nicer and better located.

“Good stay - true to Marriott form”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2011

I had to travel to Redstone Arsenal for an overnight trip and this was the closest 3/4-star hotel by the Post. Easy access from the airport, very straight forward. After the business was done (a half-hour meeting with an US Army customer), I had the rest of the day off and explored Huntsville. Went to the nearby shopping mall (I forgot the name), had a great meal at the steakhouse and had a quiet evening in the hotel. I swam in the outdoor pool the next morning (clean) and went to the rocket museum next door for some R&R.

The room was exactly what you expected in a contemporary Marriott; usual decor, comfortable bed and clean equipment. Although the hotel is a bit old (the elevators were dead giveaways), the rooms and common areas are more or less up-to-date.

A mixture of hotel guests at this hotel; families travelling on road trips, the odd convention/conference attendee, the odd business traveller, and yes, even two soccer teams en route to a tournament somewhere, which I can't remember.

Overall, a very good hotel for business at the Army Post, not so great for visiting downtown Huntsville. The restaurant is OK for breakfast and lunch; the dinner menu wasn't enticing at all.

“Great location, nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

The Marriott Huntsville sits adjacent to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center. My grandmother lives in a retirement community in Huntsville, and when we aren't visiting her, we can walk next door and visit the Space Center, or swim in the heated indoor/outdoor pool. No need to drive anywhere. But, if we do want to drive somewhere, downtown is 10 minutes away via I-565 and the Huntsville Botanical Gardens are less than 2 miles away. The hotel is at Exit 15 off I-565, an easy drive from Huntsville International Airport (Exit 8 off I-565). The hotel offers a complimentary airport shuttle, but you must put your name on the list to ensure there is space for you at your desired departure time.There is also a business center (almost hidden at the back of the lobby near the TV) where you can go online to check e-mail or print your boarding pass. The restaurant has a good breakfast buffet, but you must order/request your omlette or belgian waffle (included in the price) from the wait staff. Cereals, fruit, eggs, bacon, fried potatoes, oatmeal, biscuits and gravy, muffins, toast, yogurt, bagels are all out and available. There is also a sports bar, open 4:30 pm-12:30 am.

Room Tip: Ask for a high floor room overlooking the Space Center (west facing rooms). The other side of the ho...

“Good service, easy access - they aim to please”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2011

I stayed here for 2 nights recently. They were very accommodating and called my room about 10 minutes after check in to see if everything was good- did I want more pillows, more towels, how about a mini-fridge? The place is right next to the NASA science center so you can walk there.
