I was visiting family in NE Ohio for the holidays and thought I'd make a 'mattress run' to a Sarwood Property to pick up some points near years' end. The best deal I could find was Sheraton Suites in Cuyahoga Falls, which was pretty close. Since it's an all suite hotel I invited my sister and BIL to join me and they readily agreed.

The suite was a master BR, LR with a pullout bed, mini fridge and micro wave and one Bath. My sister and BIL used the master bedroom and I slept on the fold out couch. It's probably the first time I've ever slept on a fold out couch at a Starwood property but, actually, it was pretty comfortable. Both of the rooms had their own TV's so that worked well. My sister and BIL went 'antiqueing' (is that actually a word) while I stayed at the hotel and watched some football. It was a cold, rainy night and by the time they got back from their shopping they both hopped into the shower to warm up.

We went to dinner less than a 1/2 mile away (seperate review under restaurants on this page) and it was very good. My sister and BIL both commented that, in nice weather, it's about a 10 minute walk along the river and the falls and I can see how that would be very appealing in the summertime.

The hotel itself is nicely laid out. We were given a room with a river view that was very nice and the mini-fridge was handy for chilling a bottle of wine and storing the leftovers from dinner. Plenty of free parking which is not something you see in Southern Califrnia very often. LOL

Of course, being the 'holiday season' the hotel was very busy yet check in was quick and efficient. We had planned to have breakfast in their restaurant the next morning but the line was so long that we decided to drive 'home' and have breakfast there.

There is a nice bank of computers for guests to use if they like although I think that they also have wi-fi in their lobby.

Two complaints: some of the carpet needs to be cleaned.

Bigger complaint: took a walk on path above the river and it was littered with broken beer bottles and cigarette butts---not pretty. I blame the guests for this but still, it's up to the hotel to get this junk out of there promptly.

Would I stay there again? Yes.

Stayed here for 1 night in January.

The rooms are great! Huge, actually. Instead of an Embassy Suites type layout, the living room and the bedroom both have a large window to the outside (instead of the living room having a window to the hotel hallway).

The suite had 2 flatscreens, queen size pull out sofa, leather club chair and ottoman, large desk and chair, wet bar with frige and micro, king bed. There are pocket/sliding doors to separate the living room from the bedroom.

The gym is great as well: LifeFitness machines (treads, elipticals, bike) and free weights.

They have a LARGE pool with lap lane markings! (not sure if its 25 yards/meters, etc), but it is WAY bigger than the standard hotel pool... also hot tub and sauna.

I didn't eat at the restaurant/bar, but both are almost cantilevered over the water falls that run along side the property. It looked great.

Staff: I had minimal interactions, but all were fine. I called down for a comforter for the pull out, and they were prompt in bringing it up.

Location: within a 5 minute walk are about 3-4 restaurants, and 3 bars. It was a little deserted (being winter and all) but felt totally safe, and was clean. We had a fantastic dinner at Samiras. Theres an outdoor amphitheater, and skating rink.

If you're looking for a hotel in the akron area, I'd highly recommend this one!

We hosted our company holiday party early in January and were very pleased with the hotel rooms, the meeting room and the food catered. The only drawback I can think of was that there is no way to have cable tv in the meeting rooms. We usually stay after the dinner to play games, etc and some of our guests like to watch tv instead. Otherwise, we enjoyed. The Sunday Brunch is outstanding!

Great get away at the Sheraton Suites in Cuyahoga Falls. The service was top notch!! The people were very helpful and pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable. The bed and bedding was wonderful!! I realized I need new bedding at home after this trip.We enjoyed the area also. We went ice skating, went to Cuyahoga Falls National Park, went to many metro parks and wineries. If you bike or run this area is for you!! The lounge at the hotel was very nice, service was excellent and the entertainment was nice also.We had a great time and will be back to explore more of area maybe make it to the Cleveland. Oh yeah, two musts! You have to eat at Luigi's. We waited outside in line for about an hour but it was worth the wait. Great pizza and the salad, hope you like cheese!! Also for lunch check out Sarah's vineyard. Wonderful!!!! Great setting and great lunch!
