"All was good, clean and well kept."

Comfort Inn & Suites – Harrisburg Airport – Hershey South

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very clean and extremely convenient to Harrisburg Airport—less than a five-minute drive away. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. I had forgotten my razor at home, and they were kind enough to provide me with a disposable razor, which was a BIG help! Another great convenience is that a CVS, Wawa gas station, and McDonald’s are all located in the same immediate area, making them easily accessible on foot. My room was clean, comfortable, and, importantly for me, did not have the overpowering deodorizing smell that you sometimes encounter in hotels. I’m VERY sensitive to strong smells, so this was a definite plus. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would happily return. I definitely plan to stay here again on future trips to Harrisburg!"

Residence Inn by Marriott Harrisburg Hershey

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay! The room was very clean and the grounds of the hotel were pristine. Shanta working the front desk was incredibly friendly and sweet. She was so kind to me and really started off our weekend getaway on a high note. Thanks Shanta! Our daughter goes to college close, so we will be back!"

Scottish Inns - Middletown

10/10 Excellent

"Great WIFI. Clean rooms. Quiet! Staff was ok. Air conditioning was great. We slept comfortably. It was almost rural and we were next to a corn field and in front of a farm so there were many flies but it was a great stay."
