“Should have been better”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed at the Garden Inn this past weekend for 2 nights while visiting Hershey Park. We visit Hershey often, and planned this trip last minute. There weren't many options because most hotels were booked, but we were happy to find that there were rooms available here because the ratings made it seem like a great hotel. When we arrived, the hotel did seem great. The staff was very friendly and helpful and willing to accommodate our request for the type of room we wanted, but I guess others had requested the same type of room, because when we opened the door we were surprised to find someone was already occupying it. And I bet this woman was not so happy to have the door opened by a group of strangers while she was changing her clothes. We called down to the front desk and you'd think that they would have sent someone up to at least apologize to us and the poor woman we barged in on, but they had us come down to get a new key, like it really wasn't a big deal. And obviously privacy was not a big deal to them, because the lock on the bathroom door in our room was broken, which was more than annoying when you would like some privacy in the bathroom have two little ones running around. But, let me assure you, I made sure that the room door was bolted shut when were were in it for our entire stay! The beds were extremely uncomfortable, like a thin layer of foam placed on cement, although the sheets and bedding were clean and cozy. The coffee maker still had a used packet of coffee in it and the pot was dirty. Other than this, the room seemed clean, which is a huge factor for me, and it was very close to Hershey Park. The pool was nice, too, although there was so much chlorine in it that it bleached my daughter's hair. I will not stay here again, nor would I recommend this hotel. Not maintained well or staffed with competent management for the price.

Room Tip: Make sure they don't expect you to share a room with a stranger when you check in

“Hilton Garden Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

I recently stayed at this hotel in the Hershey area. the hotel was very nice, the rooms were clean and very comfortable, the staff went out of their way to accommodate you. I wish it had a restaurant in it but the area has a lot of nice places to eat. they do have a nice breakfast buffet in the morning on the week end. I would go back there and stay anytime I needed a room.

Room Tip: a good place you don't have to worry about checking out before you check in!!!!!!

“Courteous Staff, Clean/Comfortable Rooms, Good Cookies!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

We had a very nice stay at the Hilton while in town visiting family. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. By chance, we were assigned a handicap accesible room. Only complaint was that the floor in the shower is level with the floor in the bathroom, so we experienced the minor nuissance of water on the floor. Other than this, no complaints. Is very near to Hershey attractions. Night time cookies and morning Tazo tea are very nice touches. Nice stay!

“Good example of Hilton Garden Inns”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 December 2011

This hotel was very close to our main reason for our visit - Hershey Park! We checked in with no problem but unfortunately found that the room we were assigned was a little small to set up our pack & play, so I requested another room. We were given a handicap accessible room, which was perfect for us. It had a pullout couch for our sons, a king bed for us & the perfect spot in the corner for the pack & play.
The kids loved the pool - just big enough to splash around in & get tired out. We didn't eat the breakfast in the hotel, although it looked nice. It was a little pricey at $10.95/adult & $5.50/child. We grabbed some breakfast sandwiches, coffee & donuts from the Sheetz next door.
I would recommend this hotel, I would stay there again & the staff was very accomodating & nice.

Room Tip: Room 112 is right in a major traffic pattern towards the elevators, pool, fitness center. Room 338...

“Well worth the money to be this close to Hershey Park and attractions.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 November 2011 via mobile

Hi, I am currently poolside at the Garden Hilton in Hersey wle my daughter swims. While, yes, the pool and jacuzzi are small, the cleanliness and overall comfort and scenery make up for. It is glass enclosed with very pretty trees outside.

We arrived at 11:00 am on Thanksgiving day, not expecting the room to be ready, but when we went to check in, the said the room was ready and handed us the keys! The desk service was amazing and the room was very clean. We were able to take a swim before heading over to the Hershey Lodge for our Thanksgiving buffet. It was a short drive to Hershey Lodge.

I would highly recommend this hotel during off season.
