Top Harrisburg Hotel Reviews

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

8/10 Good

"Clean room and well kept property with a breakfast better than most. I would recommend and would stay again if in the area. My only complaint was the temp control in the room. The A/C had no temp control, it either froze you out regardless of what temp you had it set at, or you had to shut it off."

"This is a remarkably good budget hotel. Great for a road trip traveler. Our room was really large, And we were able to do our laundry which helped a lot! In general, the physical plant could use some upgrades and particular attention to plumbing details. However, any deficiencies were far over overcome by the incredible help fullness of the staff. Call out to Regine at the front desk. If we ever pass through again we’ll be back."
