Top Downtown Harrisburg Hotel Reviews

Days Inn by Wyndham Hershey

10/10 Excellent

"The entire facility was immaculate and the pool/hot tub were excellent.. breakfast had waffles, multiple cereals and varied breads and rolls. The only possible criticism is that there wasn't enough parking and I had to park on the street."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Harrisburg West Mechanicsburg

10/10 Excellent

"First of all, I had a card from my grandson from Hotels.com called them to plan our trip wanted two queen size beds, They only got us one king size bed and tried numerous times to change it, but they always had an excuse. The room was very clean, The Continental breakfast was good. The only thing that I thought they should have had was an extra blanket for the bed. I do not like covering with sheets so I take my own woolly. Staff was really nice, Room to park in handicap close to door. I would definitely recommend this motel."

Crowne Plaza Harrisburg-Hershey by IHG

8/10 Good

"I always wipe the bathroom down at the very least when I get into a room and when I did it here there was nothing coming up! Clean from the toilet to the tub. Wiped the room down and it was the same. Pretty small room. Didn’t go to the restaurant. But liked the location as well. I normally catch the train in so now I know this place is right around the corner (5 minute walk). Paid for parking beforehand and it was the best decision they have a valet service. Checked out the concessions they had didn’t look interesting to me looked cold and unappealing, but there were many ppl buying food and coffee they serve Starbucks coffee (just the coffee, none of their food items). There is a fridge in the room and a microwave in the lobby."
