I had the honour and privelage to visit this facility today. Although the main floor was the only floor accessible, it’s still powerful to see Dr. King’s words along with a few exhibits.

I also had the joy of speaking with Ken the staff member who was there today. He was very informative and an absolute joy to talk with.

I have wanted to come to Selma for a number of years and I am very glad I did.
So the reason for me to give this hotel a two star rating is as follows:
1. There was no indication there is significant construction going on around the hotel. This creates confusion getting to the hotel, difficulty for dropping off passengers, terrible room views (unless of course you like the view of a construction site). No one gave any indication this was the case, however we were still charged full room pricing.
2. The front desk staff was rude and condescending to not only us, but we saw them also talk amongst themselves about German guests who just left the counter and how they were astounding those guests didn't speak Dutch. Fine, talk about your guests, but not in front of other guests. Poor choice for a highly sought out hotel.
3. We have stayed at the NH numerous times. When we checked in, we were in two separate rooms (which we did ask for). They were however on separate floors. We asked the person at the front desk if we could be put on the same floor. She (I believe was training), she didn't think that would be a problem, but needed to check with her supervisor. Her supervisor was short and abrupt and said it could be done with an addition $12,50 Euro charge per night.
4. When we tried to check in early, or at least see if we could check in early by one hour, the person attending to us wouldn't even check if there was any possibility, they just immediately responded with an abrupt no.

On a good note, the buffet breakfast was lovely and the fellow in the bar/lounge was very good to deal with.

If you are looking to book here, ask about all of the construction before paying top dollar to deal with all of that.
