Top Spencer Hotel Reviews

Lake Okoboji Resort & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best breakfast around. Quiet rooms."

Bridges Bay Resort

8/10 Good

"Stones have fallen the outside of the building not been replace and some siding was missing. The waterfront restaurant refused to seat us near the water because some tables were not bused and they didn't have staff to clean them was their answer, even though employees were standing around, 14 tables were empty. so much for the waterfront. Would have been a great sunset."

AmericInn by Wyndham Spencer

8/10 Good

"My stay was good, bed comfortable, clean, nice staff. My only suggestion is to improve breakfast experience. The coffee was very bad. I love my coffee, but I couldn't even drink theirs. No juice available both days, it said it was out. The sausage is extremely salty. But there was awesome waffles, Danish, biscuits and gravy, hard boiled eggs. So no shortage of other options. I would definitely stay there again. I"
