“Kind staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2010

The staff made all the difference at this hotel; front desk personnel, housekeeping and food service.Two weekends in January 2010 we were asked to come to Tupelo on business. This hotel was booked for us and we were pleasantly suprised. The first night we arrived was during the first week of dinner being available. The food was good. We had a meeting while we ate and the server was kind and not intrusive. The rooms were clean both times and we stayed on the side that is the "new area". We would chose this hotel again; especially because of the front desk ladies showing us how to get around Tupelo and their pleasant smiles.

“Wonderful Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2009

This hotel sits directly behind a Travelodge so from the highway it looks less than wonderful. However when you drive past the the other hotel to the Summit in the back, you find a nice well kept building. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast included waffles which was perfect for our teens. We had a wonderful stay.

“Be sure to ask for NEW section of Summit Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I have to admit that when I first saw the hotel, I was quite worried because it appeared to be nothing at all like I saw on their website. Apparently the Summit has taken over the old Ramada Inn (there are signs for both). Behind the old Ramada is a new section (where you will check in). When you book, be sure to ask if you are booking in the new section where the office is located (this is a hotel with room doors inside). The old Ramada rooms are motel rooms (2 story with doors/windows facing out toward parking lot). All, if not most all, photos seem to be of the new section of the hotel rather than the old motel rooms.

The room we stayed in the newer section was fine. The bed was very comfy, clean (no presence of bed bugs....pulled back sheets to check) and there was a refrigerator and microwave; however, the bathroom is tiny (not bad for an overnight stay, but could be bothersome after several days). There was not much sink space for toiletries (some toiletries provided by hotel), but the mirror did contain a medicine cabinent for storage. The room had a shower only and my only complaint with that was the really flimsy (and cracked) soap dish that was suctioned to the wall and mediocre water pressure. The shower was actually a pretty good size and wasn't cramped. Bathroom linens were ample and clean. Bed linens stamped "Ramada Inn" on edges, but clean.

Although I didn't partake, some continental breakfast items were available (muffins, coffee, juice, etc.) in the lobby area downstairs.

The manager/owner was pleasant and he locks the front doors to the hotel in the evenings (we went out and came back a little before 9 p.m. and had to knock on the glass doors to be let in because your room key won't open these doors).

  • Liked — comfortable, firm bed
  • Disliked — tiny bathroom

“Nice hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2007

person found this review helpful

I stayed at the Summit due to a conference. The Summit is a nice hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean. There were plenty of linens and towels. The rooms were also well insulated from outdoor noises. There are two buildings with the main building having inside rooms. The other biuilding has outdoor entrances to the rooms. My room was an inside room and I felt very secure. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful from the time I made the reservation until I checked out. There is a nice continental breakfast that included fruit, danishes, bagels, cereals and waffles.

“Wot a nice place”

I stayed at The Summit for 3 days with The Elvis Presley Fan Club of Great Britain,as we were visiting the Birthplace etc. The hotel was a nice place with a big air conditioned room. We also had the pleasure of using the conference room & eating a meal there. The free breakfast was lovely & you could have as much as you like to eat. Would recommend staying at this hotel.
