Top Penn State Altoona Hotel Reviews

Comfort Suites Altoona North

8/10 Good

"The hotel is fine. The coffee tasted like the machine was dirty inside. It was terrible. The young lady at the front desk, whom I believe is Cassie, was an absolute delight. She was very. Professional and seemed to actually care about our stay. That young lady is an asset do your hotel. The room was nice and claim. Although both the toilet handle and the bathroom sink faucet handle were loose, and I was afraid they were going to fall off. They did not, but room 212 needs a little bit of care. All it all our stay was just fine."

WYE Motor Lodge Duncansville - Altoona

10/10 Excellent

"When you booking the room, keep in mind that you will get what you paid for! For the purpose of having a bed and shower, this is the most affordable hotel in the area, and it did exactly that. Easy check in and out. We stayed as a family with a toddler and there was plenty of space to rest. Location is very good to get to a lot of good destinations and right on a highway, If I had too, I would book again,"

Altoona Grand Hotel & Conference Center

8/10 Good

"The bedroom was clean, spacious and the bed was so comfortable and cozy. Nice and peaceful. This is a pleasant hotel - it has some vintage to it, but is well presented and offered good value. There’s maybe scope to make breakfast a little better, but overall we enjoyed our stay. Thank you."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Altoona

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible property, will be back!"

Horseshoe Curve Lodge

8/10 Good

"This lodge, while obviously a dated property, was well-maintained, clean, with comfy bed and pillows, and a refrigerator better than most motels I’ve been to. It was very adequate for our one-night stay, and the price absolutely cannot be beaten. It was good value for what we paid and we would consider staying there again when in that area. It’s in a nice location for restaurants and/or shopping. The ac/heat unit worked well."

Wingate by Wyndham Altoona Downtown/Medical Center

10/10 Excellent

"The team did a great job especially the man running the breakfast area."

Comfort Inn Duncansville - Altoona

10/10 Excellent

"The desk attendants were very pleasant. The room was very clean. Parking was great."

Rodeway Inn Altoona Orchard Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"This room had everything we needed for a one-night stay. It was clean and quiet, easy to locate off the main road, and very reasonably priced. The bed was comfortable and the room was on the ground floor with parking right in front of the door. The lighting was adequate for our needs and the only amenity that was missing was a coffee pot in the room. The color scheme was soothing and recently painted. Whenever we find ourselves in Hollidaysburg we would not hesitate to stay at the Rodeway."

Sleep Inn & Suites Altoona North
