“Surprisingly great experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 December 2010
3
people found this review helpful

Deciding late to attend the "Big 12 Cross Country Championship," I was faced with few available rooms in Stillwater for that weekend. I booked a room at the Atherton and from the moment I checked in until checkout, it was a surprisingly pleasant and rewarding experience! The room was clean, quaint and comfortable, the lobby warm and inviting and the whole place reflected an historic presence at OSU. My biggest surprise came with the continental breakfast (free with the room). Expecting bagels and cold cereal, at best, it had a great buffet of REAL scrambled eggs (not from a carton), breakfast meats, fruit, bread/bagels/muffins, juices and great coffee that was far better than I've ever gotten at SBs, much less another hotel!! And hats off to the college training staff that were always friendly, helpful and eager. Good job!

“OSU Parents on a weekend visit”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 April 2010

My husband and I came to visit our son over Easter weekend. We stayed at the Atherton. The hotel is located with the historic OSU Student Union. It is a very nice, quiet hotel with all the basic amenities. The bed was comfy with lots of pilllows. It is staffed by students from OSU. It is very convenient for business or pleasure dealing with the university. A full hot breakfast was served the next day.

“Beautiful hotel, great staff!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 April 2008

This historic hotel is located in the Student Union at Oklahoma State University. The rooms are beautifully decorated - you feel like you are at home, and not in a hotel. The beds are the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in at a hotel, even the roll-away bed was amazingly comfortable! The staff consists mainly of students in the Hotel and Restaurant Management program, and went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant. They even greeted us by name as we came and went. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and offered hot as well as cold choices. Highly recommend this hotel.

  • Liked — The staff and the comfortable beds.
  • Disliked — Loved everything about this hotel!

“Great Place to Stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 February 2008

Recently stayed at the Atherton for a weekend while my daughter attended an OSU event. The hotel is great! The room was wonderful. They even brought in a roll away bed for my daughter and the mattress was comfy and thick, unlike most roll aways. The mattress on my bed was excellent. Nice and soft. The complimentary breakfast that was served each morning was great. Not just muffins and coffee, but eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy along with the wonderful breads, bagels, and muffins. The hotel is conveniently located right on campus and I would recommend it to anyone who is staying in Stillwater. Also, make a reservation at the Ranchers Club. The steaks are wonderful!

  • Liked — Great staff and rooms!
  • Disliked — Small bathroom and no pool.
