I love the Riverview Plaza because it is located in the heart of downtown Mobile Alabama! The best time to go is during Mardi Gras...Mobile is the ORIGINAL HOME OF MARDI GRAS, now we love New Orleans but Mobile is the "TRUE" home! The Riverview Plaza is right across the street from the IMAX theater and it's also across from the cruise terminal! It's 5 miles away from the shopp... [more]ing malls and its about 30 mins from Fairhope Beach! The service is great, the rooms are clean and the price to stay is very reasonable! If you are ever in Mobile please go to the riverview plaza!!! You'll Love it!!! [less]

By Hidden Vacations User from New Orleans • Average Hotel with Dated Features

Overall Rating: 6   Location [8] • Room [6] • Service [8] • Value [6]

I've stayed at this hotel several time mainly because of it's attachment to the convention center. The rooms are spacious enough but a little dated. Also, no internet connection is available unless you have a phone dialup connection. You have to pay for internet connection through your television but this is clumsy and hard to work with. The food is average and the staff there is always fr... [more]iendly particulary the bellhops and parking attendants. Since this hotel caters to business traveler, they should have business facilities and accommodations in the room. Hopefully the presently under construction new Battle hotel will have all these feature and I will be staying there. [less]

Overall Rating: 6   

It's located downtown where nearly everything of any historic value in Mobile is located. In fact, it is built right on the site of an antebellum hotel that was the biggest, costliest and grandest hotel in the 1830s, according to the history books. Of course, this hotel looks NOTHING like the historic hotel (which is a great pity), nor do they (like the city itself) even attempt to convey th... [more]e feel of the original historic city of Mobile. But it's a pleasant enough hotel, in spite of being overly modern (i.e., quickly outdated looking). They need refrigerators in the rooms and free internet connection and it would be fine. But when the nearby Battle House Hotel reopens, that would be my first choice for accomodations. [less]
