These are two of the best Rens in the entire chain, and they are a block from one another. Hard to believe there are two such great choices in Mobile.

If you have never been to the Battle House before, stay there. The hotel is beautiful. Plan to stay in the lobby for at least an hour, staring at the dome. There is so much to digest in the dome's interior painting. The rooms are swank, the CL top notch and the service pitch perfect.

With that said, I actually like the set up in the more modern "Other Ren" a little bit better. The views are cool, there are more dining choices in the hotel and the rooms are a little quieter.

Again, you won't go wrong with either hotel. At this point, I go with whichever is less expensive for the night needed.
