While we usually don’t feature chain hotels, the Marriott Shoals Hotel and Spa in Florence , Alabama, is unlike any other from the brand. Located next to the dams of the Tennessee River, the hotel is inspired by the music and people of Muscle Shoals.
The contemporary design has the best of everything, from the restaurant to the spa and outdoor pool facility. The hotel also has easy access to nearby golf courses on the Robert Trent Golf Trail.
