We learned that one should request a room on the quiet side of the building or get a room on the 6th or 7th floor because of noise from the very busy street---the 1br were only avail on the street side and having a room on the higher floor didn't really help...pretty noisy. Being on the 6th floor....water temp and pressure were issues. Lastly, as a diamond member you are supposed to get a $10 credit for yourself and one other registered guest in your room --in my case, my wife. Just reviewed our bill and noticed we only got one credit each day even with receipts that clearly indicated 2 people....and yes, rechecked to make sure my wife's name was on the reservation and it was. So....couple things they need to work on.

I stayed at this hotel recently for a weekend-long event, and I enjoyed my time here. Our…read moreaccommodations for the convention worked out well, and we even have room to grow. The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food for the meals we got for our event were very good, delivered on time, and the staff were very professional. The layout is a bit nonstandard in that the floors below the third are labeled (in descending order) as L (Lobby), BL (Ballroom level, which is where you enter), and ML (I don't remember what that stood for, we never went on that floor). Check-in was a breeze, and coffee is provided in the morning in the lobby. Meeting/function space is available on all the "L" levels. The hotel has a dining area. Breakfast is available a la carte or as a buffet for $12.50, which was a very reasonable price for what was provided. My room, a suite, had a view of Troy to the west and south. The shades made the room VERY dark at night (a plus), but since the hotel is along Route 7, you could hear traffic, particularly motorcycles and sirens, at night (a minus). The hotel is "slightly" older (I heard it's 15 years old), and it reflects that in some ways, including a traditional shower, and key-into-slot access instead of proximity/tap keys. One quirk about my room is that the bathroom door swung out and actually overlapped with the space for the door into the room, meaning if the bathroom door was open, you couldn't open the other door easily - rather poor planning on whoever designed this. There were a couple of very small glitches with my room, but they were easily and quickly fixed by the staff. This hotel is a good choice for a stay in Troy. It's not adjacent to either downtown or RPI, but it's reasonably close.

From the street and the upper parking lot this hotel looks closed but drive around to the main entrance and everything starts to take shape, The front steps lead up to a very cozy lobby with a fire in the fireplace and beside that is the front desk. The staff at the front desk were very efficient and friendly with getting us checked in. The whole decor is colonial in style without being stuffy. The room was different in style than the front lobby. The room was extremely comfortable and cozy which was needed after a long night of travel and the first college tour. From the desk and headboards the style was a bit more modern with the bathroom door being a barn door style . The room was very quiet and the view was serene. In the morning the complimentary breakfast was a little above average with a couple unique items like fresh scones. This is a place that I would book again if I needed to stay in the area.

I booked the hotel through Chase. Travel I was originally going to stay here on a Friday night, as…read moreI was flying out of Albany on Saturday. I had to fly home a day early, I called Chase, Travel, who checked with the hotel, and they were, no problem at all. They were very flexible. It's a great location, right next to the freeway, but far enough back that you don't hear any noise , and only about 10 minutes or so from Albany airport. I checked in, and everything in the hotel was clean, bright, and modern. The gentleman who checked me in was very friendly, very personable, continuously called me by name, and he got me checked in. Because I'm a higher level with IHG, I got a little "goodie bag" with snacks. I thought that was nice. The hotel also has a little "snack shop" with sundries and food that you can buy. Prices are a little bit higher, but that's expected because you were buying them directly at the hotel. The room itself was modern and spotless, it was a decent sized room. The TV got a great picture, it had a Keurig available, and there was also a fridge and microwave. There was a desk to eat or work at, and plenty of places to charge my gear. The Wi-Fi was fast enough to stream video. The bathroom was also spotless. This is very minor, but the bathtub did not have any type of bathmat or anything like that to stand on. There was a grab bar to grab in case one slipped, but it would be nice to have a bath mat. The bed was comfortable, and I slept like a baby. The hotel has an indoor pool and a hot tub, and a fitness center, of which I did not use. They also have a free laundry for guests, and that came in very handy. I'm glad I didn't have to fly home with dirty laundry. The breakfast in the morning was excellent, hot and cold choices, including cinnamon rolls, pancakes, eggs, proteins, juice, hot and cold cereal, cocoa, and coffee. A very nice stay that definitely lives up to the IHG brand. Thank you for a great night.

At the beginning of February, my family and I--including my wife and two young children--stayed at…read morethis hotel and were placed in an extremely uncomfortable environment due to a swingers convention being hosted on-site. At no point during booking or check-in were we informed that an adult-themed event of this nature would be taking place. While I respect that consenting adults may attend such events, the lack of transparency and failure to separate this type of gathering from families created an environment that was entirely inappropriate for children. To make matters worse, as shown in the attached photo, how nice is it to step off the elevator with your family and be greeted by a sign promoting this kind of event? It really set the tone for what was supposed to be a relaxing, family-friendly stay. As a result, we avoided using amenities such as the pool and gym, and even breakfast the following morning was tense and uncomfortable. This was not the experience we expected when booking with a brand like IHG. What is even more frustrating is that the manager at the hotel acknowledged the situation and offered to refund my stay and provide a complimentary night. However, after reaching out to the property multiple times, I have never received this compensation or any follow-up communication. This lack of accountability and failure to honor what was promised has been extremely disappointing.

The room was very clean, cozy and cold. The perfect way you want it! The blackout curtains kept all the light out and during the day it had some amazing natural light coming in. The lobby area is perfectly equipped with lots of TVs, booths, seating areas for business meetings or just getting some work done and hanging out. Overall, great place to stay at if you're in the area. There's so much to do in Troy and so many fun local businesses to visit!

The hotel is super clean and looks and feels like recently built. Mattress was comfortable, the curtains provided full darkness, the climate unit worked smoothly, and the bathroom was excellent and clean. Location is very convenient, close to highway exit. That would be a perfect stay, but unfortunately there was a serious problem with noise coming from the highway and Hudson bridge next to the hotel. Buses, trucks, motorcycles, crazy road racers, etc. - we heard all of them, especially as the morning was approaching. The noise was heard even with earplugs, though this way it was tolerable. Hotel in such location must have sound proof windows. We've been to many hotels next to highways but never had a problem with noise. Had to read other people's reviews. We can recommend this hotel for those for whom heavy road noise is not an issue.
