BHM for work. Westin, Sheraton, Elyton, or Bohemian? Nice rooms and proximity to food/drink.

Elyton. I’ve stayed at all but the Sheraton. The Elyton is walkable to a number of good restaurants/bars. BHM is surprisingly foodie so you will have a lot of good options. Bohemian is nice but not very walkable and it is new so is actually less “Bohemian” than the Elyton. The Westin is a conference center hotel and I didn’t particularly care for it.

BHM = Booty Hole Meat?

Places to check out: Bistro Two Eighteen, Brick & Tin, Cafe Dupont (I’ve heard it’s not as good as it used to be), Collins Bar, El Barrio, Roots & Revelry

The Yard House in the hotel is actually pretty good as well. The rooftop bar has been a mess every time that I’ve ventured up that way.

Good People Brewing, Saws BBQ, Ghost Train Brewing, Fancy’s on Fifth, Melt, Bottega Cafe

Birmingham

I stayed at the Elyton once, it was new and nice.

Good People, Carrigans. For lunch hit up Johns City Diner

How many points? Caribbean Marriott Cat 3 property, 5 nights. They have an issue with the boiler so no hot water and shower stops in between. Ice cold showers for 4 days in a row 🥶. Hotel phones don’t work because network is down and only local channels work on tv. Last night they had a huge leak in the lobby. They kept knocking stuff all night to fix it and then left a large floor fan running. I understand it’s tough reopening so don’t want to push, plus they upgraded our room at check in.
