We always stay here when we're in Troy. Staff are outstanding! Plus great breakfast, and location. Right across the street from our favorite restaurant - Emery's.
Vincent, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

i was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It was very clean and quiet. The hospitality staff were very friendly. The room was in great condition and the bathroom was plenty roomy. The fitness center was sparse, but the treadmill worked and I appreciated that they kept the temperature down so you weren't dying from the heat.

Breakfast was one of the better free hotel breakfasts I’ve had!
Mary E, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice hotel with modern, cozy lobby and dining area. The breakfast spread was notably good. Solid customer service. The only quirks were the sink design (low height and tended to spray) and loud AC unit. Great location near the river, RPI, and downtown retail and restaurants. Highly recommended overall!
Lori, 3-night trip

The hotel was clean and inviting from the moment we stepped inside. We were greeted kindly by the front desk staff and found our room was clean as was the bathroom. The breakfast was good as well. I would easily stay here again.
Troy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location to everything you’d want in TROY. Steps away from the Riverwalk with access to several waterfront restaurants. Bus stop right outside property. Location, location, location. Large assortment for breakfast (included). Fruit, oatmeal, yogurt, pancakes, burritos, eggs, bacon, links, potatoes, bagels, toast, cereal, coffee, juice, all the toppings you could think of. Top notch. Great for hotel quality. Only thing I didn’t like was no coffee pot in room, but so many shops nearby.
Michael, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay super convenient location in Troy. Very clean rooms.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pros: Easy parking, easy to locate and get to, clean presentation. Cons: Can be pricey during peak season because there arent many other modern hotels around. The area around is great on the river side, and suspicious a few blocks over.

Troy - A hidden gem

Loved the city of Troy. First overnight there. Great BBQ place right next door on the Hudson River. AMAZING farmers market filled numerous city blocks on Saturday. Will be back!
