Above average!

Very nice hosts, and great breakfast. The room was nice but tight. I can't remember if the pool is featured on the marketing material, but the pool is tiny and there's no poolside chairs or tables. This place is fine as long as you don't mind drives in thick traffic with lots of stop lights to the beach. Take the scenic route 90 into Fairhope -- that's excellent.

My wife and I stayed here on a whim and this was a great choice! No kids or pets allowed, bed and breakfast hotel, walkable to all the things downtown Foley. It is very old, and my wife really enjoyed the history. Food was amazing. We had an amazing quick trip and will plan to stay here again.

Nice place for a weekend getaway.

The staff are incredibly friendly. The location is wonderful (VERY safe) and I could talk all day about how good the breakfast was. The rooms were private and each had its own bathroom, which is unusual for a B&B. We stayed in the Azalea room. It was small (probably 10x10) but quaint. My biggest complaints were we had no control over the temperature in the room other than a fan supplied in the room and there was a light right outside of the room that was super bright. The clawfoot tub in the bathroom was nice but if you are not used to them, they have their drawbacks when using them as a shower. I would for sure stay here again, but would splurge for a larger room.

Just what expected in terms of bed and breakfast type stay. Staff was super friendly (which we experienced in general everywhere when in Baldwin county Alabama. The hotel is a 1908 gem with a Victorian feel.

We would love to thank the owner and staff for a memorable and fantastic weekend. My wife and I celebrated our 38 wedding anniversary with a trip to Foley, Alabama at The Hotel Magnolia. Everyone gave us the feeling that we were visiting family. Looking forward to visiting again. Thank you again, The Church’s.
