Looking for the best hotels in Huntsville? The largest city in Alabama has multiple options. According to USNews and World Report, “Huntsville, nicknamed the Rocket City for its historical ties to the space industry, has seen rapid growth over the last ten years partly fueled by the tech and manufacturing sectors. The population of the city has jumped by 19% since 2010.”
With rapid growth like this, we are bound to have a huge influx of traveling professionals. Let’s look at some of the best hotels in Huntsville, Alabama for traveling professionals.
First, let’s look at some downtown hotel options.

106 Jefferson Huntsville
Aptly named after the street where it resides, 106 Jefferson is Huntsville’s first boutique, lifestyle hotel and we are loving its vibe.
Not only is it in the heart of downtown, walking distance from restaurants, night-life, and entertainment, but it also boasts its own restaurant and rooftop bar to make the hotel a fully immersive experience without ever leaving.
The restaurant, Revivalist, is ‘a throwback to a historic Huntsville tavern that once occupied this location and embodied the parlor culture of the era.’ Baker and Able is a rooftop bar whose name pays homage to the first two primates in space to survive spaceflight, a nod to Huntsville’s rich space history, and is the perfect place to have a cocktail while taking in the views of our beloved Rocket City.
106 Jefferson Huntsville has 115 rooms, free Wi-Fi, a fitness center, meeting rooms, and a business center. This hotel is a smoke- and pet-free environment.
