History in the making Every inch bespeaks the life-altering history of this hotel and its nearby environs, including the famed bridge where the march to freedom broke down barriers and continues to beam hope for a future of union an peace among us all. A spectacularly scenic spot on the river that invites charming birds and offers respite from troubles and toils. The corner unit we had with a giant balcony made for a memory-making stay.

My booked room was unavailable. I called the morning of my stay to confirm my reservation. When I arrived, I was told the hotel was all booked up. It took more than one hour for a room to be found. The registration clerk was not present at the desk for periods of time. If I left the room, I could not use the key card to get back in the room. This room was damp and not fully equipped with a shower curtain, microwave or fridge as the room. This room caused my husband to sneeze constantly and become stuffed up nasally. We were finally moved to a better room at 8 pm that had a microwave, fridge, and nicely appointed sink and separate toilet room with shower. The lighting was poor in the toilet/ shower room. This caused us to miss the start of the event we were in town for that began at 7 pm. The clerk apologized and did give us a discount on the hotel room price. Also, the breakfast which is an additional cost was very disappointing consisting only of a packaged muffin, Greek yogurt with tiny cups of granola and cranberry; and small cup of blueberries with one sliced strawberry. The listed rating of Excellent (8.2) is not true at all!!

The room was nice, 👍 no hangers in the closet. When we arrived the room wasn’t ready, so we were told it would take about 25 minutes to complete, then we waited about 15 minutes, then someone else arrived and told us that we could’ve had another room instead of waiting. The view from the room was 👍. Since we had the wait, we did ask about a free lunch, was told no. It was still a nice place. 😊

Do not stay here.
I could not check-in. The hotel system was down, and they didn't know which rooms were clean. Clean? Aren't ALL rooms supposed to be clean? There were three other couples there for a 6 pm wedding; this happened at 5 pm, and all the staff could do was shrug it off. Other people at the wedding said they didn't have air conditioning, one room had no power, and one had a very leaky AC unit—just a horribly run hotel. The bridesmaid's sister worked there, said they have serious staff issues, people would leave and not return during shifts, quit, fired for theft and other nefarious activities, As nice as it may seem, it should not hold a HIlton branding. Top it off with the surroundings, not safe.

Originally, our room door would not lock. The staff was able to resolve the issue. There is a water leak outside I. The courtyard that needs to be addressed. I room had a mildew spell. I asked for a new room and was told there were no other rooms available. There was no remote control or iron in the room, the carpet was dirty and needs to be replaced. The windows need to be cleaned. The staff at the front desk was very responsive to our concerns. I did share that the stay was not what I expected from the Hilton.

Smoky…could barely walk in the front door to check in due to the smell. There was no soap in the shower dispenser. Asked for late check out and was declined…first time ever as a Hilton member. On a positive note, the lady who checked us in was pleasant, the bed was comfortable, and the water pressure was good.

There was no lighting in the room other than bedside lamps. The staff was not very friendly. There was no seating in the room other than a desk chair, therefore there was no where for 2 people to sit and watch television or have a snack.

Our bed spread was clean but stained ...looked kind of sketchy...the nightstand was not clean down the side next to the bed, the floor looked like it was not thoroughly vacuumed....it could have been a LOT cleaner. Old, historic, area could have been nice if it was CLEAN.

The St. James is a lovely historical hotel with a friendly staff. If you stay, reserve a room on the river with a view of the bridge. Be sure to visit the Voting Rights Museum and the park/shop at the base of the bridge. We are so glad we visited the city. We just wish Selma could be revitalized because it deserves that. It’s sad to see that so many beautiful buildings have become run-down.
