Top Dayton Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Dayton South - I-675 by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hotel was okay. Pull and hot tub were a little outdated, and breakfast was okay. Hotel. Could use some updates but was clean"

Drury Inn & Suites Dayton North

10/10 Excellent

"Too many dogs. Not everyone likes dogs and some people even have a phobia of them. Separate entrances and rooms/floors would allow guest to choose if they want to interact with animals…not be forced to do so"

The Hope Hotel and Richard C. Holbrooke Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"I was only there a short time, but it was my birthday, so if something had not gone well, it would have been magnified. This place was easy to find, just off base (for those visiting family in the military). My first impression was the place was warm and inviting. Check-in was easy and quick. We were told where the restaurant was, that they had breakfast and dinner there, plus Happy Hour. Of course, I expect the room to be clean (it was). And every staff member was so very helpful. We enjoyed our dinner; restaurant had a great vibe; and our server (Caitlin?) was fun and on the ball. Brought me a 2nd beer quickly when I asked, and she reminded me it was happy hour. Good experience all around. I literally found only one flaw during my stay. The office style chair in the room felt like it was coming apart. I went and sat in a different chair. Highly recommend this property, and when we're back in the Dayton area again, this is where we'll stay."
