The only property that offers brekkie certs to both Gold & Plats is the Mobile Marriott, which sounds like it's out near the airport.
The Ren Riverview Plaza is attached to the convention center by a skywalk. According to the website:
The Renaissance Mobile Riverview Plaza Hotel is a AAA, Four Diamond hotel ideally suited for business, conventions, stylish social gatherings or weekend escapes. Step into a fresh space of contemporary design and experience world-class amenities unrivaled by other Gulf Coast hotels. Featuring 363 hotel rooms and 10 suites, 2 Concierge Levels and 44,000 sq. ft., of meeting space, this premier convention hotel in downtown Mobile is connected to the Arthur Outlaw Convention Center via a skywalk.
If it was me & it was a vacation vs. business I'd pick the historic property over a convention property in a heartbeat. In 2009 Travel&Leisure magazine rated The Battle House "One of the Top 500 Hotels in the World".
Cheers.
