What a wonderful stay, we will surely come again. This is not your typical hotel with the typical amenities such as mini-fridge/coffee-maker in-room. However, there’s a shared space with all of the amenities on a much nicer scale than what would be available in-room (complimentary k-cups, individual snacks, well-stocked with dishware/silverware, etc.). No in-room service, either, but there’s so much delicious dining just steps away. We thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful king-sized bed with high-end sheets and the BEST shower we have ever experienced (and we’ve traveled quite a bit). The shower was large and spacious, completely tiled, glass on 2 sides, and the water pressure and showerhead felt like a massaging waterfall. The staff was wonderful — helpful and welcoming and made us feel like we were at home.

The room was great. This isn't like a normal hotel... it is some suites that are in an office building. Checkin was done at the security office and you have access to the club on floor 20. No complaints at all, a very nice place and great facilities, but if you are expecting a normal hotel with restaurants and people everywhere, this isn't like that.

The rooms and other appointments at the hotel were outstanding. The only concern was the early check out, which was 10:00 am. That meant for us we paid for a whole day and didn’t get 24 hours. We did ask for a late check out because I have a work call at 10;00 am, but was denied.

Best hotel in Birmingham in my opinion. There are only about a half dozen rooms so it's very quiet. The rooms are great, with plenty of space. The common area with the kitchen and indoor and outdoor sitting areas is very nice, and again, due to the small size it's always quiet. The location is also incredible, as your within walking distance to multiple nice restaurants, and anything beyond that is a quick Uber/Lyft. My wife and I have stayed multiple times, and will definitely be back again in the future.

Can't say enough good things

I'm inclined to try and keep this place a secret so it's available still and at a reasonable price next time we are in Birmingham but this little gem deserves the good review.
There was not much information online about this \"hotel\" but the photos and reviews I did find gave me enough confidence to book and boy was it worth it.
This hotel is actually just seven (I believe) suites located on one floor of the historic John Hand building. We stayed in the Cobblestone suite which I felt had the best set up and was the only room with access to the shared balcony (shared from the common area)
Upon arrival and checking in you'll be given key card access to the elevators to the 7th floor.
The common area and hotel floor is stunning. Marble floors and high end lights and fixtures. There is a small kitchen area with snacks and coffee. There was a mini fridge where we kept our leftover pizza after dinner.
The rooms were all booked for the evening but we only saw one other couple. There was no noise inside the hotel and very little road noise in the Cobblestone room. The other rooms might have more noise as they are on the main street.
Guests of the hotel have access to the rooftop lounge and bar which made for a nice time before heading out to our Valentines dinner and concert.
Parking was easy.

When we arrived around 10 pm there was only a security guard to give us our key. We had two large suites, but when we went on the elevator to our rooms there was only one large suite and a smaller room. Surprised, I went downstairs to get a key for our room that we had already paid for, a large suite. The security guard didn’t know anything, and there was no other staff.to their credit, the security personnel called the manager and inquired about our room. That was when we were told our original room had a water leak, and they had given us a smaller room instead. I understand the swapping of rooms, but not telling us in advance was not great concerning the price we paid for the full suite. I had to ask for a reduced rate, it was not offered. In my smaller suite, the bathroom faucets would spin when tried to turn them on. I had to hold the base in order to get them to turn on, and when I opened the hot water there was no actual hot water. For this price point the overall experience and maintenance of the rooms are definitely not up to par. We will stay elsewhere next time.

Check-in was difficult. Hotels.com sent us a non-functional door code and security wasn’t at the front desk. No one answered the phone numbers listed on the door to call. Brisk walk through the rain to parking deck next block over to get security to answer phone to let us in the door. Living room in the Heaviest Corner suite strongly smelled of marijuana and lots of street noise hindered sleep somewhat. Otherwise, room was clean and appeared well kept. The bed was comfortable and shower was beautiful and refreshing with great water pressure.

Stay here in BHM-amazing property

Beautiful property! Hidden gem! 10/10.

The only complaint I have is that the bar/restaurant is closed on Sunday at 4 pm which is the check-in time. It would have been nice to lounge up there and enjoy the view with a drink. It doesn’t open until later in the evening on Monday either. So, of all nights-Sunday is best to be avoided if this is important to you. Stayed in the Sloss room that was auto-picked for me. Probably the smallest and worst view of all 6/7 rooms, but it steps directly into the private living (lounge) area that is so beautiful, quiet and peaceful! The hotel is clean, smells great and beds are super comfortable! I’m a travel and expense manager and I feel happy recommending this to anyone coming to BHM. I am a local and gifted this night to a family member and brought them some snacks and drinks to help enjoy their stay.

This is an amazing property!

We stayed in the cobblestone suite. It had a separate seating area, access to a wonderful balcony, a walk-in shower, and a comfortable king size bed. They also provided extra linen/blankets in the closet.

It can be a little confusing on how to access the security desk where you check in and then the hotel but if you follow the very detailed instructions that they send to you and use Google maps to locate the areas you will be fine.

You have to first park in the visiting parking lot located at morris and 20th avenue. Then walk a few feet to the double doors of the John hand building. They will have your key card already set. When you go back to your car if you look directly across the street (still on Morris) you will see a parking deck entrance. There will even be a sign (John Hand club parking). Use your key card to access both parts of the perking deck. One you park where the security directs you to park there are two double doors.. you enter and take the elevator to the designated floor and find your suite from there

There are only 6 suites I believe. Each one with a different name.

There is a community kitchen that the staff hand stocked with beverages, fruit and for breakfast- bagels, fruit bars, yogurt.

The hotel is located downtown Birmingham and there are several shops and restaurants within walking distance.

This was an amazing stay and I will always stay at John Hand Club whenever I am in Birmingham.

We recently stayed at the John Hand Club Hotel on a quick trip to Birmingham. I must say, its a unique set-up, and not your typical hotel, with an obvious lobby and check-in desk. But we were well taken care of by the Gentleman who greeted us as we drove in and explained how to get to the parking area, quickly checked us in, and miraculously showed up when we forgot the last part of our instructions, to help us get to where we needed to be! It was clean, well appointed and quiet, and easy to get in and out. We will be back!

Early 1900s romance and customer service

This was a step back in time to early 1900s romance and customer service. The staff was exceptional the room beautiful and our stay very enjoyable. So thankful for the suggestions from staff on places to eat!

Loved the room but no on-site amenities like restaurant/bar, lobby was not ideal. No valet parking or room service.

Cool boutique hotel in downtown Birmingham, stayed in the Vulcan suite. The room was as spacious and well-appointed. The location is good, with several restaurants and bars as well as the Alabama Theater and Lyric a few blocks away. Was disappointed there was no coffee maker or mini-fridge. It is a small hotel (less than 10 rooms I believe) so check-in is with the building manager (very easy) but only self-parking is available in a deck next door, which was included in the room cost.

The Vulcan Suite was wonderful. Clean, quiet, and the most comfortable bed ever. We'd definitely stay there again.

Very accommodating to myself and my daughter. She spent her wedding night their and they let me have someone bring their luggage and check them in for me earlier before the wedding and they secured her wedding dress and his tux until I could pick it up the next morning.

What a hidden gem, I actually don’t want to make a big deal about it because I don’t want others to find it. In all seriousness, a very classy, comfortable, and enjoyable place. A classic building with a bit of a modern flare. When we checked in, the customer service representative was absolutely wonderful. She was genuine and helpful, and even walked us to the elevator and held it for us. We will be staying here from now on when we are doing anything inside the city limits of Birmingham.
