The National 9 Inn was a 5-story, 120 room motel located at 2224 5th Avenue North in downtown Birmingham. It was constructed before 1963 as the Downtowner Motor Inn.

On October 31, 1995, the body of Michael Propes, 45, was found in one of the units by a maid. This was later ruled as Birmingham's 109th homicide of that year.

The building was demolished in 2004 to make way for a parking lot.
