Eden Brae — Hotel in Birmingham

BEWARE. Disorganized booking process. My family booked Eden Brae in early 2020 for our May 2021 wedding. We planned to host our family flying in from Denver and enjoy the ability to have shared common spaces on the grounds while still having separate quarters for privacy. After a year-plus of planning our stay at Eden Brae (and subsequently being charged for it), with itineraries printed, bus routes mapped and rooms assigned, it came to light FOUR days before we were to check-in that they had double booked us with another group. It took us reaching out for check-in instructions to discover that this was the case. While apologetic, the owner opted to honor the other reservation despite the fact that ours was the earlier booking. I believe this was due to the fact that it was another wedding party that had been in contact with the owner and therefore unfortunately we were more of the faceless names on paper. Accidents happen sure, but this was the accident of accidents and derailed my family's lodging plans for my wedding. Just a heads up to CONFIRM your booking directly with the owner.

Stayed at Eden Brae and had such a memorable time there. 4 women traveling alone we felt very safe. Even the people walking by would stop and talk with us.

The kitchen was great in fact the whole house was amazing and had everything and way more then we needed. This host is amazing and she knows what she is doing. You won’t want for anything in any of her spaces. I am planing another trip up there in June and I will be staying here again. I come up a few times a year to see my specialists at the hospital. I am able to relax in this space and not stress a...

My husband and I have stayed at Eden Brae several times and are already looking forward to our next stay. Emma anticipates everything to make it the most comfortable and enjoyable stay (down to ear plugs and eye mask for having a late sleep in!).

It was easy to find and the check in process is super smooth. The peaceful view of trees, birds, and squirrels from Apt. 5 is the best. There is a full kitchen and fantastic grocery 5 minutes away making it easy to have a lovely meal at our home away from home.

It seems like everything we wanted to do was 5 minutes away making this centrally located gem the best and the neighborhood is quiet and lovely to walk around.

All the best until our next...
