"We loved our stay at Shepherd’s Retreat! We had a group of 6 women come to town for a girls’ weekend, and we had a GREAT time! The host was super responsive to all of our questions, the pool was so clean and relaxing, the kitchen was fully stocked, and we got to feed and pet the donkey and all of the sheep!We will keep it in mind for future weekend getaways!

This is an amazing property!
We stayed in the cobblestone suite. It had a separate seating area, access to a wonderful balcony, a walk-in shower, and a comfortable king size bed. They also provided extra linen/blankets in the closet.
It can be a little confusing on how to access the security desk where you check in and then the hotel but if you follow the very detailed instructions that they send to you and use Google maps to locate the areas you will be fine.

Absolutely charming Victorian B&B in a very quiet neighborhood, but within walking distance of the Five Points South area. Tree House is quiet and inviting, with coffee, fruit and bagels available all day.

When we arrived at 5:00 pm, the front desk told us they didnt have our room ready yet and that was totally unacceptable. We had to wait a few minutes for the room to be ready

A great addition to Birmingham! Some start-up kinks like condensation noise from the refridgerators and slow service in the restaurant. However we will be back!

Nice hotel located in a nice area. The hotel itself is tucked away in a secluded location but is still very close to every shop you might need. Hotel staff is very polite and helpful. Typical amenities that you expect. A free hot breakfast in the morning. We stayed here as a resting point on our way to Florida because our normal hotel (Drury Inn - the highly rated one) was full. We liked this hotel so much that we decided to book it for the return trip (Expedia was $17 cheaper than the...

Great place. Great breakfast. Only complaint: you have to pay a parking fee that’s not included in the advertised price of stay. I like to know the true total cost of stay when choosing a hotel.

Great property and staff, only downsides are pay parking, lack of free coffee stand in lobby because there is a Starbucks counter instead, and the streets around the hotel have some of the most aggressive panhandlers I have seen even compared to San Fransisco or other large cities.
