Hotel Finial BW Premier Collection Oxford - Anniston

Loved the mansion. Breakfast was great. Happy there was a bar on property. One of the employees (house manager) went out of his way to tell us about the house. House (which was the entire reason we stayed), was beautiful.

The pool is saltwater, which is always lovely. The breezeways and balcony areas were clean and well kept. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious, hot, well made, well seasoned, and well maintained EVEN THOUGH we came on a weekend when there was a large wedding party. The staff stayed very cool, collected, friendly, and helpful during what must have been an incredibly overwhelming weekend. I didn't get the names of everyone working in the kitchen for breakfast, and I wasn't about to stop them and ask for their names in the midst of the buzz of breakfast time, but they were wonderful. I'm sure they didn't get half of the thanks or credit that they certainly deserved. As for the front desk and bar, I DID get their names as my husband and I were celebrating his birthday before the wedding party moved over to the bar. Chelsea, Megan, and Alicia were absolutely wonderful, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant. They helped with information on check in, drink selection later in the night, and helped us avoid the crowd by telling us when the wedding was ending. (We wanted to be out of the way by then so the wedding crowd could have their space). Upon check out April was sweet as honey, and wished us safe travels. All in all this stay was beyond expectations in every way imaginable. Thank you!

Our room was in the main building so we were set back in time by this elegant, historical building. Every floor has been meticulously renovated and restored. Our room was tastefully decorated and quite large. The bed was also very comfortable. The setting of this buidling is within a nicely gated property that is very well maintained. An absolute plus are the staff at reception. We were looking for a restaurant in the old downtown and they gave us some excellent recommendations – not too expensive, something with a bit of history and something that would serve the local cuisine.

I can hardly say enough good things about the place. The atmosphere was very pleasant. The room comfortable. The staff was just wonderful. We loved having breakfast in one of the numerous dining rooms at the main house. It’s just a wonderful place to stay.

Homemade breakfast is 8/10 compared to most area hotels. The owner is the best cook but the other cooks are good too. But he makes the best eggs, bacon, and potatoes.
