So you've found yourself in Montgomery, Alabama. There is much to be said about this lovely town, for one, it's the capital of Alabama. This city has quite a history in the south. It was first incorporated in 1819, and the city was named for General Richard Montgomery, who died in the American Revolutionary War. A little trivia for you reader, the city of Montgomery was the FIFTH capital of Alabama, now that's some history. However, it was the first capital of the Confederate States of America, but, that didn't seem to go over very well. But, most likely, the number one historical moment that pops into many individuals minds is the story of Rosa Parks. It was on December 1, 1955 that this civil rights heroine refused to give up her bus seat to a white man. Also, a little more than a ten years of the aboved date, Dr. Martin L. King nationally-publicized march for justice was conducted from Selma to Montgomery. So, it is very easy to say that this city has quite a history, and wherever there is history, there is going to be visitors. And thus, many hotels. Well, I have researched and reviewed the top three hotels in this Civil Rights town for your consideration.

The first hotel in which I reviewed is Montgomery Marriott Prattville. Although this hotel isn't quite in Montgomery, the hotel is located only two miles from the historic Prattville, and only ten miles from the Montgomery Zoo. Need transportation to and from the airport? No problem, for a small surcharge the hotel provides airport transportation for all of its guests. This wonderful hotel has 84 guestrooms and 6 suites, all of which include one king bed or two double beds. Need to check your e-mail? No problem, all guestrooms as the Montgomery Marriott Prattville provide their guests with high-speed Internet access. Other room amenities include premium bedding, pay movies, voice mail, complimentary toiletries, separate bathtub and shower, and Bathrobes.
