I and my family have stayed here 3 times. We love Branson during Christmas, but have also visited in the fall.

This hotel features one & two bedroom suites, more like a small apartment. I am a Marriott Platinum member and travel a lot for business (usually 100+ nights a year at Marriott nationally) and I would rate this as average, but not bad.

The last stay the rooms were showing a little ear and tear, but I am sure we are getting close to the typical nationwide renovation that Marriott requires.

The staff are friendly and breakfast is typical. Centrally located and easy access to all of the shows.

This hotel was so clean and helpful. The staff were all so nice and just an overall experience. Great breakfast burritos in the mornings. The fireplace was a great bonus and so was the outside fire-pit (it is on a timer which is by the door).

I had read some less-than-flattering reviews re: Residence Inn-Branson. We had an excellent experience!! We traveled to Branson, celebrating 35th Wedding Anniversary. I had planned this trip for at least 6 months, & everything had to be perfect. Our 2nd floor, 1 bedroom suite was immaculate & spacious. Bed was great,shower was heavenly, and dressing area was roomy, and breakfast was very good(I had 3 different hot breakfasts during our stay. Personnel throughout the hotel were attentive, pleasant, and dedicated to serving all guests. We saw or experienced NOTHING anyone could consider negative. IT WAS GREAT!!!

Residence Inn by Marriot claims to be non-smoking. But, when you come in the doors they leave the ash trays right outside and you get to move through three or four smokers and try to hold your breath while you get the card to open the door. Other than this problem I have with all Marriotts, the hotel was really clean, right off Route 76. Nice receptionist and easy check in and out. Bed was not very good and the fan in the bathroom was too loud.
