Top Empire State Plaza Convention Center Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Albany-Downtown

8/10 Good

"What I liked was the needed key access for elevator making you feel safe. The Bfast only had pork options, and possible cross contamination for those who don’t nuts. Parking didn’t sound like it was an option on arrival, the lots seemed secure however it’s posted not responsible for articles left in vehicle, or not responsible for the vehicle at all. After paying parking, there were spots on the street with the same security"

Hilton Albany

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great"

Albany Plaza Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and employee were very helpful"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Albany Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Affordable and clean, good location."

The Morgan State House

10/10 Excellent

"The Morgan State house is a combination of rooms in the main brownstone or in the building two buildings down (where we stayed). The main building is a beauty and open to all guests and serves a complementary breakfast every morning. In addition the lovely rear garden is also available. The other building is a lovely pre-war former apartment building with all the period features that you would expect along with convenient upgrades. The bed, linens and pillows were probably the best hotel sleeping experience I have ever had. The Morgan State House is in a great location and walking distance to fun restaurants. The staff was A+."
