Comfort Inn Livingston, the in-town answer
The Comfort Inn sits at 141 Truckers Blvd off I-59, minutes from the University of West Alabama campus. Its 50 rooms carry fridges, microwaves, and 50-inch TVs, with free WiFi, included breakfast, and a pool. Guests score it 7.6/10, praising clean rooms and staff, with thin walls as the recurring gripe. Rates start around $113, and the official Comfort Inn page posts current numbers.
Book it for UWA events first. Graduation, move-in, and home football weekends absorb all 50 rooms fast, and there is no second hotel in town to catch the overflow.
The Demopolis upgrade
Best Western Plus Two Rivers Hotel & Suites in Demopolis is the area’s ratings leader, 9.2/10 across 467 reviews, at 662 Highway 80 W about 25 minutes from Livingston. Free breakfast, fast WiFi, jetted-tub suites, and pet rooms cover the range, and the service scores drive the number. The Best Western site holds current rooms. When the Comfort Inn is full or the trip deserves better, this is the answer.
Meridian, the big-town fallback
| Hotel | Distance from Livingston | Starting rate |
|---|---|---|
| TRU by Hilton Meridian | 45 minutes | $100+ |
| Sleep Inn Meridian | 45 minutes | $90+ |
| Hilton Garden Inn Meridian | 45 minutes | $120+ |
Meridian, Mississippi sits 45 minutes down I-59/20 with a full chain lineup when both closer options fail. That drive only makes sense for multi-night trips anchored west of Livingston.
What brings people to Livingston
The university drives most bookings, and the town rewards the stay with a few genuine sights. The Alamuchee-Bellamy Covered Bridge, an 1861 span moved onto the UWA campus, is the photo stop. The town square and its spring-fed lake round out a walk, with the full list on Livingston’s places-of-interest page and Alabama Travel’s Livingston guide.
