I stay here frequently and it is the finest hotel in the state! The river views are breath taking. Not directly in the hustle and bustle of the city but easy distance to anything you could want in Florence. The staff has always been outstanding and the rooms are large and beautiful. I wish every hotel was like this one.

After driving up the Natzhes Trace Parkway, which was most beautiful, we ended up in Florence, Alabama and a night at the Marriott Shoals Hotel & Spa. Our room was most comfortable and the staff was very helpful. We had a great view of the Tennessee River and the surrounding countryside. It was a long drive, so we headed to... More

All of the rooms in this Marriott have small balconies overlooking the grounds of the hotel with a wonderful view of the Tennessee River and Wilson Dam in the background. The staff was excellent and we particularly enjoyed a gourmet dinner in the revolving restaurant that allowed one to view the entire area. An added bonus was that it is... More

Visited this hotel with Epicchurch.tv for a marriage retreat. I had a great experience at this hotel. I was very satisfied with the price versus amenities available. The location and the sprawling grounds this hotel covers made for a trip that felt like we were truly away from the bustle of the city. Room Pros: - nice comfy inviting beds... More

This is certainly the best place to stay in the Shoals area. It is a little pricey compared against some of the chain hotels, but the service is excellent. The restaurants are good, parking plentiful, the pool is beautiful. The free coffee available in the lobby is some of the best you'll find (Royal Cup I believe). Only negative would... More

Every one working at this hotel should get a raise! I did not have a single rough spot throughout the entire stay. Check in was a breeze; the rooms were clean, comfortable and fantastic; the balconies were spacious; the restaurant and bar were delicious; the pools and hot tubs were fun.fun.fun! When our littlest one got sick, the staff at... More

I just returned from the Marriott Shoals Hotel & Spa on Saturday April 20th. I am a travel agent and couldn't have had a better experience. The staff (particularly Kendall) were absolutely wonderful! Kendall was working the front desk when I arrived. She was super friendly and very accommodating. Other staff members were also friendly and quick to respond when... More

I stayed with husband for two nights while he's traveling for business. Very relaxing stay, for me anyway. I think it's worth it to book a concierge room with a river view. A very nice lady helped me in the lounge this morning for breakfast. The lounge is open for breakfast and then for the evening. It's also open in... More

This is such a beautiful facility. It is a shame that it probably is underutilized. It is right next to the local convention center, which, despite having stayed here many times in the past 6 months, I have never seen being used. The lobby is grand, with soaring ceilings and balconies, a water feature and many window. The bar has... More
