    friendly staff
    great location
    comfortable rooms
    squeaky bathroom door

    Had an amazing time with friends! This hotel was a great base for exploring the area, especially Kohl Memorial Park and Spring Gate Vineyard. We enjoyed outlet shopping and even some golfing nearby. The staff was really friendly and helpful, making our stay even better. I'd recommend checking out the restaurant too!

    One downside was that the bathroom door in our room was super squeaky, which was a bit annoying in the middle of the night.

    pool view room
    ice cream social
    outdated gym equipment

    We had a pool view room that was recently remodeled and opened right into the pool area, which was perfect for the kids. The indoor pool and the ice cream social in the lobby were fantastic ways to unwind after a long day. The only thing was the gym had a few machines that were a bit outdated, but it didn't really take away from our awesome stay! 😊

    large pool
    friendly staff
    great for kids
    limited kids' food options

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel, especially enjoying the large pool area that was great for the kids. We spent a fun afternoon at Kohl Memorial Park nearby, making this hotel a perfect base for exploring Harrisburg's attractions. The staff was friendly and made us feel at home, which was a standout for us.

    In my wife’s opinion, it would be great to have more options for kids' food at the restaurant.

    mouthwatering dinner
    helpful staff
    friendly atmosphere
    outdated decor
    damaged equipment

    The salmon dinner at O'Reilly's was to-die-for, and the burger really hit the spot! Yul's local tips kept our vibe high, guiding us to a hidden shortcut to Hershey Park. And can we talk about those super friendly housekeepers who made our mornings brighter?

    While the old carpet vibe was kinda retro, it also felt a bit outdated for the price. The gym's equipment had seen better days. I mean, can we get some TLC here?

    helpful staff

    Perfect for families seeking fun

    Had a great experience at this hotel. Staff were really helpful, especially when they made sure my kids got to enjoy the heated pool after a long day. Plus, the happy hour with popcorn and ice cream was a nice surprise.

    It wasn’t cheap, but it was worth it.
