“The need for upscale hotels that cater to guests staying consecutive nights in the Birmingham-Troy area greatly exceeds the available supply,” said Melissa Whitcomb, hotel general manager. “Our new facility has been created specifically to meet the needs of travelers who stay at the hotel for an extended amount of time and who may require specialized services and amenities, such as an executive business center and complimentary grocery shopping service(a) by the hotel.

“Homewood Suites by Hilton hotels have a home-like atmosphere that appeals to business travelers who stay for more than a few nights, as well as families vacationing with children and weekend travelers seeking a get-away retreat,” said Whitcomb.

The four-story Homewood Suites by Hilton Birmingham Troy hotel offers residential-style one-and-two bedroom suites with fully equipped kitchens and spacious sleeping and living areas that are large enough for work, study, entertaining or relaxing.

Attractive guest amenities include a complimentary breakfast buffet in the hotel`s hospitality center—called the “Lodge,” an evening manager`s reception Monday through Thursday with a complimentary light meal and beverages(b), a 24-hour executive business center, exercise facilities and a 24-hour Suite Shop(R) convenience store.
