    We chose to stay here because it was a more affordable option, especially since we only needed the hotel for eating and showering. Most of our activities were already planned for our short weekend trip to Hershey. While the hotel could use some updates in terms of décor, the customer service was outstanding. They accommodated our request for a late checkout without hesitation and happily provided extra towels and key cards. There was plenty of parking, tons of hot water, and a super friendly front desk staff--huge shoutout to Jazmina! Jose, who worked both at breakfast and the bar, was fantastic. He's from Puerto Rico, which I had visited just three weeks ago, so we had a great conversation. He was incredibly friendly and patient, even when figuring out how to make a Moscow Mule. Ida, the kitchen supervisor, went above and beyond to make my friend's breakfast burrito just right. The beds were clean, though the mattresses could use an update. Overall, I'd definitely stay here again--the staff alone was a 10 out of 10!

    I decided to go with the omelette this morning

    Clean comfortable room. Great water, pressure. And a nice breakfast options in the morning. Plus free coffee.

    A Side salad.

    The hotel could use some updates, mainly carpet. The staff are exceptional. stayed a total of 4weeks with them and the food at the restaurant was great. They have special almost every night and make a great burger. Also bartenders make great drinks and make fun non-alcoholic drinks. My room was clean and even the stair wells were kept clean. The pool was chilly for me, the weight room had a good amount of weight. I would highly recommend this hotel.

    Tv stand in room

    The entry was beautiful and that's where it ended. The room was large, but dirty. Very run down and dated. Furniture was scratched. Overall from the elevator to the hallway nothing was overly nice or clean. The bed was not comfortable; overly firm. Bedding and towels felt "stiff", hard and dry like no fabric softeners were used. No usb-c charger port plug ins in lamps or stands. Stand had to physically be moved to access beside outlets. For a "Hilton" brand, I would have expected much better quality.

    Bedroom bedsheet flipped inside out

    The rooms are old school traditional styling. There were no usb ports near the bed, but there was one in the room. Outlets to charge required me to move the nightstand to plug in. The bed was a disaster. The blanket was likely reused from previous guest and there were small blood stains on the underside. The bedsheet was flipped inside out, which makes me wonder if that is also reused. I let the manager know and he offered me free breakfast. The hotel also changed the sheets and blankets. Although it was resolved, it should not have happened. Free breakfast was also a cheap response.

    Rubber trim along the bottom of the door for safety

    We arrived without a reservation since we were going to the Chocolate World tomorrow..Faith greeted us nicely and got us a room. The room wasn't too bad. I did find a hair under the toilet seat lid, and the shower stale needs to be remodeled. The place is needed for a remodel, but with the government mandated shutdowns over the past 2 years, i can see them not doing any remodeling. But it's over and time for a face-lift. They have breakfast, but its not free with the room like the Holiday Inn..$119 for a twin queen room. I did notice some safety features like peep hole covers and rubber trim along the bottom of the door. The heater worked well, and it has a wall thermostat. A large flat-screen TV about 55" was nice. A small refrigerator and microwave but no freezer . A couple of other pros. At home, we have an $8000 Select Cimfort bed. So, sleeping on any other bed is never comfortable. We slept so well . The bed was comfortable and the pillows were just the right height. I usually sleep until 4am. I woke up at 6:30. Crazy,right?

    Just finished a six night stay…read more We stayed in large room. It had two queens and a pullout. There was a desk area. Also had a small microwave and small fridge. The room felt dark-with decor in particular. Breakfast every morning. Had your typical breakfast- waffle maker waffles, cereal, bagels, eggs, a breakfast meat, yogurt, fruit, juices. They also had coffee that was out 24/7. Has a small indoor pool and a nice exercise room. Hershey Park during summer months have concerts that you can hear from the sound from your room. So if you go to bed early this may be an important factor. Rooms didn't really have a refresh. I was lucky if trash was taken out and we got new towels without asking. Not a bed made once. I miss those days of coming back to a nicely made bed. I guess those days are long gone? Also, the week we were there lots of kids which were running around the lobby like it was a playground. Overall my stay was okay. I might book here again if I was in the area but I would also consider a different spot as well.

    I would like to preface this review with the fact that I have been in service my entire life,…read moreincluding managing a hotel myself. I currently work for American Airlines at the Charlotte Douglas Airport. The front desk agent Matt - caused me to walk away from a prepaid reservation and pay to stay at the Hilton Hershey property instead. Which was amazing, by the way! I had a reservation for 6/15, and had called the week before to reconfirm an early check in. After working my 8-9-hour shift, I drove over 7 hours straight to Hershey PA to take my elderly mother to a concert at Hershey Stadium. Once arriving at the Fairfield, Matt brusquely replied that I did not have a reservation. I explained to him that a Marriott Vacation Club Member had gifted me the room and it was registered in my name as well as theirs. He then "found it" and told me there would be no early check in although I had confirmed, and I would have to wait until after 4pm. Mind you it is 11am, and at this point I have been awake well over 24 hours and am feeling faint. He was so nasty, I took a step back to take a calming breath. He was then so rude to the next lady (in front of her children as well) that she exclaimed "is this how you treat Marriott Bonvoy Members? WOW!" I knew I was unable to reason with this individual, and I was too exhausted to escalate the issue. So, I simply left and took my business elsewhere. I called today after some thought on the matter, hoping to give grace, and it was Matt who answered the phone. He was disdainful, snide, would not provide me with the GM's name or email and disconnected the call. I called Marriott Bonvoy myself and got the information I needed. Matt is ABSOLUTELY NOT the person Guests should EVER see and interact with upon entering a Marriott property. A welcoming smile and spirit of kindness is necessary in our industry. Matt has none of these qualities. Like I relayed to Corporate, Matt is most definitely a cause of loss of revenue for this location. On a more positive note, Zira and Melisa at The Hampton Inn Hershey saved the day! Highly recommend!!!

I think they could upgrade their pool. It was very slippery. I mean, part of it was the other family there was running around and not really paying attention to how much water they were leaving, but they really should probably have a better surface for an indoor pool. I also saw some rusting in the pool area. The breakfast wasn't great. The hot food could definitely be improved. We didn't have much other than yogurt. Honestly, they probably could update with some different yogurt and granola or something. The coffee ran out and it wasn't refilled that quickly. So overall, just an OK stay.

With the exception of someone I spoke to on the phone who was incredibly rude, the morning before we checked in when I called to make sure we could stay in the same room for both of our nights (split reservation)... the entire staff was pleasant and helpful. But I really have to give major kudos and credit to the breakfast staff! Suffice it to say, breakfast time gets BUSY around 8:00/9:00 on a weekend morning. They were on top of keeping everything stocked and navigating around lines of people (seriously the waffle line was like 10 people deep). One gentleman in particular (and I wish I had gotten his name) was super helpful after a kid stuck his whole hand into a bowl of chocolate chips so we needed to ask for a replacement. The hotel shows signs of age and nothing is perfect (the shower head was SO HIGH I had to stand on tiptoes to just adjust the stream) but overall it was a good stay. The bed was comfortable... maybe a little firm... but I was THRILLED to find they do do use the crappy down pillows that every other Hilton Brand seems to use. The ones that support your head for about 30 seconds. So this made for a much more restful night of sleep. And of course it is pet friendly with a convenient doggie station on a decent size grassy area that spans the back of the hotel. I WOULD recommend that housekeeping pay a bit more attention to what toiletries they hang in the shower (LOVE LOVE the full size ones that not only cut down on waste but also mean our whole family of four isn't trying to make one tiny bottle of Neutrogena last). The reason I say that is because we didn't have shampoo in our shower. We had shower gel, conditioner, and LOTION. Haha. We're Diamond members so have stayed in a few Hilton properties. And many of them Hamptons. I was not disappointed with this stay. With its proximity to the park (easy in and out), it's a good deal.

The rooms were older but plenty comfortable and the overall hotel experience was satisfactory. A big minus was the shower/ although the water pressure was fine there was no way to have a stream that actually hit your body without it hitting the back of the shower and onto the floor in the bathroom. Made for spartan and less than stellar showers. Other than that the rooms were quiet enough and the restaurants were very good. Be careful though- signs are crazy non existent when you need them. You'll come up to an intersection and be left with a 50/50 guess which way to go. The elevator and the pool are probably only 100' apart but you need to go to the second floor and then forever and back to get to the water park. On the plus side, the restaurants had great food and the bartenders were friendly and hospitable. We were shocked how reasonable the prices were compared to home and served to remind us how much things ought to cost. Because it's part of the Hersheypark world, there is a shuttle that starts at 8am and goes through 9pm each day. Free of charge, it is a great savings over the daily parking fee you'd otherwise incur at the park. Staying at the lodge you'll get an early admission to the park as well- getting those roller coasters out of the way that normally get a big line. Super plus. Yes, for sure we'd come back or try one of the other affiliated hotels in the area.

Needless to say, Hershey was quite crowded and I can only imagine how it would have been during a weekend. The grounds are well-manicured, the indoors clean with numerous conveniently located restrooms. It paarars to me that the entire complex is handicap friendly. The staff all seemed friendly and security had a presence. The light breakdast and lunch buffets were quite tasty, and there was plenty of coffee and other beverages available. I thought it nice that each table had a small assortment of Hershey chocolates. My meeting was only one day, thus overnight accommodations were unnecessary, however my recollection is that the prices are rather steep. Overall, it was a pleasant meeting location and dining experience!

If you are searching through Hershey for a traveler motel that won't fill you with despair and disgust you've found it. For the price, this is a five star hotel. Reader, if you are looking for a better experience at this price point, you are not going to find it in any popular town in the U.S. I've spent the last few years of my career checking many of them. I have to assume the poor reviews predate a renovation and/or management change, or that some people's expectations for a ~$100 motel in a tourist town are way too high. I have stayed in a lot of travel motels like this for work, and there are cheap bad hotels and cheap good hotels - I would say this is a good one. The beds were well made and clean, the mattresses pass the flip test, and the bathroom was very clean as well. The carpets in the room were properly vacuumed. No dust bunnies in the corners. There is some highway traffic noise beginning around 6am, but this motel is next to the highway. If you're staying anywhere like this you should bring earplugs anyway. The shower is hot and the water pressure is strong. Lots of these budget places have stopped cleaning rooms nightly during a stay, but this one does. The tub in my room could use to be refinished. I don't think anything else here is in real need of a renovation. And, the people working here are really, genuinely nice. I did not expect the doorman at midnight on a weekday to be so friendly as I checked in and that is really appreciated after a long day of travel. Thanks a lot dude, I literally drafted this review the night I came in for that. Everyone I saw here from the desk staff to the housekeepers were so friendly. Really, thanks so much. It makes traveling for work so much nicer. There is a really sparse fitness center but I appreciate having one at all at a motel like this. Good if you want to get a run or a quick workout in while you're traveling, but don't expect much equipment. Walking distance to some bars and restaurants including a 24 hour diner. Right across from the conference center. There's even some cute themed decorations and paintings around the place.
