I travel almost every month on Government business & have been doing so for 5-1/2 years. The Edison Walthall is one of my fondest memories, it was recommended to me by a coworker who worked in our Jackson office prior to transferring 3 years ago. I arrived on a Wednesday morning & stayed 2 nights. A new Chrysler 300 with... More

I had to stay here because I am a flight attendant and this is where our company lays us over. We absolutely can not stand this hotel --it is the worst one we have. It is so dirty --the wallpaper is peeling, the paint is coming off the wall, and the carpet is so, so stained. We are the only... More

I just got back from a conference at the hotel. Overall, it was an OK stay but there were some issues. First thing we noticed was the very tiny parking spaces. We were in a minivan and had a hard time fitting. Every third space had a pillar in the space and every level had at least 2 reserved parking... More

As I write this, I am sitting in my hotel room here at the Edison Walthall that has no air conditioning or heating. My room smells of mildew and old musty furniture and carpet. There are 2 lamps in my room that have no light bulbs. I have opened the windows so that I can breathe. There is no phone... More

Poor maintenance plagues the hotel. Checked in late at hotel to what looked like an almost empty hotel (2-3 cars in parking lot). Put in room in corner of hotel with window facing a wall, drapes held up by coat hangers, bathroom lights didn't work, shower curtain moldy, thermostat broken (couldn't adjust temp - so room was friged - opened...

Upon walking into the lobby, I was impressed with the decor and thought this might be a nice place to stay. Once we reached our room in the tower, it smelled of wet dog. I figured it was because the a/c had not been turned on. We turned on the a/c and then left the room only to return to... More

The Edison Walthall is an old hotel with a beautiful lobby. Dark wood paneling and reproduction furniture appropriate for the time period add a dimension of elegance not found in modern hotels. We were quite impressed with the lobby, dining area, and bar/lounge. Now for the problems. I had trouble reconciling all of the reviews that I had read because... More

Someone else made the reservation for me at this hotel and I had to stay there. When I read the reviews I was really worried. The place was fine. It is not a 5 star resort but a downtown hotel. The lobby was very nice. I ate at the restaurant and the food was fine. (I only had a salad.)... More

I had a wonderful time staying at this hotel. The airport shuttle was on time to pick me up, and the driver was really nice. I'm glad, as I was tired and worn out from a layover in Atlanta which kept on going, and going, and going. The workers were all very friendly, my room was very clean, although the... More

We went to Jackson on October 14,2006 for college football game. We booked it in advance but forgot to look here for comments. We were so puzzled prior to booking as to why this was the only hotel available in Jackson this particular weekend. When we arrived the parking garage was big enough to fit golf carts and motor cycles.... More
