Relaxed Comfort Near Birmingham's Biggest Stages
Modern and unfussy,
TownePlace Suites by Marriott Birmingham South offers a laid-back stay just outside downtown Birmingham. Located in a conveniently quiet area about 7 miles from top venues like BJCC and Legion Field, this 2-star all-suite hotel gives you space to unwind without breaking the bank.
Why Concert-goers love it
It’s all about balance here — close enough to the music action, but far enough to retreat and recharge. With
easy highway access and only a 10-mile ride from Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport, getting around is hassle-free. The
3:00 PM check-in gives you time to settle in before evening shows, and the
11:00 AM checkout means you don’t need to rush out the door after a late night. Plus, the area is known for its calm vibe, so noise won’t keep you up after the encore.
Who this Hotel is great for
- Groups of friends looking for an affordable base with room to spread out
- Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list performance
- Couples planning a music-filled weekend escape
- Fans who want a peaceful space to crash post-show
- Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise comfort
Food and Drink Options
While there’s no full restaurant on-site, the hotel features a
snack bar for quick bites and late-night cravings. Guests often praise the
complimentary breakfast, especially for those who stayed out late and want a no-fuss morning meal. Plus, you're just a short drive from multiple casual dining options in the Homewood area.
Nightlife Options
While the hotel itself is more about rest than revelry, its location means you’re just a
quick ride-share away from Birmingham’s downtown nightlife. Whether it's a bar crawl after the show or a quiet cocktail in a nearby lounge, the city’s evening scene is within easy reach.
What People Say
Guests love the
clean, spacious rooms and
friendly staff. Many mention the convenience of its location — not directly in the hustle of downtown, but still
easy to access major venues. Free parking and quiet surroundings are also frequent highlights, making it a favorite for repeat visits.
Areas for Improvement
While the hotel is great for the basics, don’t expect luxury amenities or a full-service restaurant. Some guests noted that
breakfast options could be more varied, and the snack bar doesn’t always satisfy bigger appetites late at night.
The Bottom Line
For concert-goers seeking an affordable, quiet, and convenient stay with easy access to Birmingham’s top music venues,
TownePlace Suites by Marriott Birmingham South hits the right notes.
