Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Harrisburg - Hershey West, PA

8/10 Good

"The room was nice. We have 3 kids, so the pull out sofa really helped. The pool was also a nice inclusion, and two of the kids swam in the morning (good to have a 12pm checkout!). I would have given four stars but the breakfast wasn't great. Waffles and tater tots were good, but the eggs were blah as was the sausage."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Harrisburg Airport Hershey

10/10 Excellent

"I’ll be booking La Quintas from now on! This property was wonderful! Easy check in, transparent fees, and very friendly staff! The bed was so comfortable, I didn’t ache like I usually do staying away from home. The breakfast was delicious and having access to coffee and hot water all day was a real treat! The only thing I didn’t like was the water pressure; I have thick hair and it seemed to take a long time to rinse since the pressure wasn’t there. It’s safe to say that is a usual problem at a hotel for me but nothing I would give this fine establishment a poor rating on. Everyone was pleasant and made sure my husband and I were comfortable. Thank you so much for a very pleasant stay!"
