Top Lawrence Hotel Reviews

Tru by Hilton Lawrence

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is so kind here. Felt so comfortable here. Thank you!"

TownePlace Suites Lawrence Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Really impressed with my last stay. The hotel main lobby and rooms were extremely clean. Breakfast variety has improved! It was lightly rainy and the umbrella was zip stripped shut. The other one was missing. The main fireplace was off too. If you like to sit outside this time of year you don’t have many options. Ordered food from downstairs since the fridge said room delivery and instead of bringing it up they had a delivery service bring it upstairs. Be aware it may take two hours or more! It was election night. The front desk was snippy about my food inquiry. Said no one can deliver food to the rooms.Might be a good idea to remove the flyer from the fridge then. In the middle of the results coming in my room channel went blank. I called downstairs and they were no help. MSNow would not even let me click on the channel and it suddenly showed that the channel was blank. Next day it worked. I was very disappointed in the lady with the reddish hair running the desk. She was rude and laughed and offered me zero solutions. What the heck happened to a major news channel that I was blocked out halfway through until the next day? I went to stay and relax and watch the results alone.. This time there was no relaxation due to the lack of help from the staff."
