Top Downtown Harrisburg Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Harrisburg - Hershey by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful, only thing that would be even better is if breakfast or at least coffee bar was included."

SureStay Plus by Best Western Elizabethtown Lancaster

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. Pool and hot tub were excellent. The hotel was very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was awesome and had a lot of options including hot food. We brought our dog along and there was a nice grass area with a picnic table at the side of the parking lot also a big grassy open area at the back of the parking lot as well. Highly recommended!!"
