One of the best hotel stays I’ve had, and by far the best in Birmingham. Fair prices, great amenities, and the staff is some of the friendliest I have ever interacted with. Room was clean and absolutely adorable, I will be staying here every time I stay in Birmingham from now on.

The man at the front desk (and his dog, Sub!) were very kind and helpful and the hotel itself was beautiful, extremely clean, and quiet. We were only there for one night but wish we could’ve stayed longer! We will definitely be staying again the next time we’re back in Birmingham.

It is it used to be a brothel, so be prepared for the Staff to help you with your luggage up the staircase. Overall peace and quiet is what you will get at this hotel. There are several restaurants and cafés within walking distance from the Hotel. Highly recommended!

It was peaceful and quiet. They upgraded me to a king size bed for free and the room was pink, my favorite color. Also, my original room was on the 3rd floor, the new one was on thw 2nd which was a plus due to them only having stairs.
Keyless entry which was good since I was all over the place and didn't need to worry about a key.

What a lovely little boutique hotel, new to Birmingham! Was a wonderful stay, perfectly walkable to all the fun downtown restaurants and bars. The one thing that came by surprise was the fact that there was no elevator & our room was on the third floor. While not a huge deal, it would be worth noting in case others aren’t aware of that and are in need of that.

We had an amazing stay at The Painted lady. Jing was very communicative and helped with a number of recommendations. We were only staying as a brief getaway and found out Birmingham’s good scene is pretty awesome. I’d stay at this clean, artsy, quirky, cool hotel a million times more!

The king suite room was beautifully appointed, very clean and comfortable. The staff was nice and helpful. The location felt random when we first got to town, but after driving around the next day, I realized it’s super close to lots of restaurants and shopping. We had no issue with street parking. The entryway felt very awkward. Maybe some background music would help the space feel more welcoming and less weird? The walls are also very thin. We had a very loud neighbor and couldn’t sleep. You also hear everything out in the hall. If it weren’t for the noise, I would have no hesitation in recommending this place.

This was the cutest hotel. It was the only affordable hotel during my stay for the Chris Brown concert. I slept so well in my room. The parking was convenient and the staff gave detailed instructions on how to check in. They kept in contact throughout the day and were very helpful after I expressed concerns about a late check in. I was able to check in around midnight with no issues. There is a flight of stairs to take (they make you aware immediately after booking). The room was so beautiful and the walk in shower was very easy to enter. I will be staying here again soon in the near future!

Nice quiet hotel

We loved this hotel. It was quaint and comfortable. The shower was amazing. The only thing I wish it would’ve had is a mini fridge to keep drinks in and maybe a coffee maker. But otherwise it was perfect.

LOVED it!

We LOVED the Painted Lady. Our concierge and his pup “Sub” were the highlight of our stay in Birmingham. The room and bed were so cozy, it was hard to want to leave. They took such great care of us and we loved the history of the building. Will recommend to anyone we know who is coming thru the area.

My welcome was fantastic! Great communication ahead of my stay and on the day of my arrival, excellent directions and advise on parking. I parked on the street within 200 feet from the entrance, easy walk. My room was on the 3rd floor - i liked going up the stairs, liked the eclectic decor of the lobby, colors of the stairs, the bannisters. The hotel is spotless, my room was sparkling clean, bedding, pillows - so luxuriously comfortable - very good quality linens. The coffee/tea/refrigerator are community-style - served on each floor kitchen station with nice selection of teas and coffee. Hotel is very quiet, feels private and secure. Within walking distance from multiple amazing restaurants and bars. Will definitely stay again!!! my only tiny comment is that it was a bit on cold side of comfortable (i do like my room warm, but it's just a personal preference). Again - i was looking for a differen sort of hotel - not a chain and The Painted Lady DEFINITELY fit the brief! Would recommend!
