Came to a concert at Hershey and chose this location primarily for its pet policy, location and photos. Pet policy was accurate, location was perfect and photos were pretty spot on. The front desk clerk, Jose, was super welcoming and inviting. Enjoyed O'Reillys Tap Room next door as well as the amazing pool which was large and went from shallow to 7 feet deep. Overall great stay. Only mention and this is not directly the fault of the hotel but unsupervised children running a muck shouldnt be tolerated in halls or other common areas. This is parental problem. However, this should be enforced by the hotel.

The hotel is very clean and the staff is very friendly. They made sure our request for cribs was taken care of at check in. The indoor pool is very nice. We had a great dinner at the Irish pub attached as well. Very close to Hershey, and a great stopover for us as we headed home to NJ from visiting family in Pittsburgh.

The property was very nice. The staff was super friendly. The room was great but the toilet handle was not properly installed so it was difficult flushing the toilet but we didn't complain because we were only staying 2 nights. There were kids running around outside our room for hours but we didn't report.

My children and I had the best experience here when traveling through on a road trip. From the moment we stepped into the hotel we felt so welcomed. It was incredibly clean and I am a stickler for that. The kids were given an ice cream chip and it made their whole day. We all enjoyed the walkout door to the pool for convience with the kiddos. We also enjoyed the gym and and arcade! We didn't want to leave and will definitely stop here each time we do the trip from SC to Connecticut.

This hotel was excellent. We used it for our trip to Hershey Park. We stayed in a family room and it was all we thought it could be. Kids got their own beds and we got our own room! The pool is huge. Downside, no hot tub. Also no continental breakfast, but those usually are crap anyways. However, the restaurant attached to the hotel is excellent. Had breakfast and dinner here and the food was amazing. The hotel is gorgeous and the staff are lovely. I may never stay anywhere but a Best Western now!
