The hotel is in a prime location with many restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues within walking distance. The staff is generally friendly and helpful. However, there are consistent complaints about the lack of on-site parking and issues with room cleanliness and maintenance.

    Nice room, clean, convenient location to why we were in town. However the recommended parking was off-site and about 2 blocks away. Having to walk that multiple times was a bit annoying.

    Zero parking which was a huge expense we did not plan for. Their Breakfast was very basic and was not that great...milk was. The room etc was beautiful but the carpet was sticky socks or no socks.....really grossed me out. Absolute perfect location for shea's, plenty of places to eat but hang on to your wallet most are $20-$30 per person.

    The Holiday inn downtown Buffalo is a lovely location it is centrally located near a couple restaurants near a open air cement event area where they have immense outside in the summer and the rooms are very nice and spacious the staff was helpful and the breakfast was absolutely delicious I would definitely recommend

    No on-site parking available - had to park at a public parking lot at an additional cost. Room was ok, but we didn’t have enough towels and the phones in the room didn’t work properly, unable to contact housekeeping or guest services. The sofa bed was uneven, with the feet portion being higher than the head section and the mattress was too soft. Huge plus was the continental breakfast available in the morning.

    They don’t have onsite parking but they provide great directions to a parking garage close by, we paid 20.00 to park overnight. Lastly, it’s very close to the trolley so you’ll hear it but it does stop between midnight and six a.m.Overall a good stay but some tiny nuances that might be helpful to know ahead of time. Enjoy your travels!

    The hotel is a bit worn, staff was very pleasant. Pressure vessel in the toilet was not working, sink tap kept running and the AC sounded like a gurgle jug of water. The air in the hallways was very stale in the morning - no fresh air movement. Overall give it a pass.

    Great hotel right in the entertainment district. Found street parking very close by and it was free on the weekend! Staff was very welcoming. A little bit pricey, especially with exchange rate to CAD. However, for the closeness to the venue and lack of stress it was worth it.

    On a business trip. Hotel was clean, comfortable and close to restaurants. there is an upscale Indian restaurant attached to the hotel. I did not try it, but it will be on my list for my next visit. The hotel is near hospitals and the Roswell Cancer Center which was an easy, safe and pleasant 20 minute walk. Definitely will stay here again. Thank you to all the staff for making my visit comfortable and pleasant.

    When we talked with the staff, they were kind and helpful but the error occurred on the side of the hotel as two groups of people were checked into the same room.

    The biggest issue was the parking. The hotel description stated there was paid parking on-site, but there wasn't. When we arrived, the staff directed us to a lot that turned out to be completely closed. We ended up having to find a different garage, pay $22 USD, and walk 15 minutes back to the hotel pushing a baby stroller with all of our luggage. It was an incredibly stressful start to the trip adding to that it started to rain while we were half way there. Check-in was also handled poorly. The receptionist charged my card on file without even asking me first, completely ruining my plans to use a different card for the stay. The room itself was a nice suite, and the breakfast was decent. However, the bed was far too soft for my liking. Furthermore, because it was the weekend, the noise from a nearby club combined with the constant sound of the metro rail kept me awake most of the night (even though Buffalo itself seemed pretty quiet).

On the weekend one of the streets has free parking if you can find a spot. As for the weekdays you would have to park in a parking garage.

    Very convenient to the theater that was the best part. The hotel needs a make over like yesterday. Most things were out dated in the rooms. Toilet so low to the floor felt like a toddler. The track for the shower door was stuck I had to get a way in and out. Too many people loitering in the lobby just chilling like its the hang out spot. Didn't like that. Not enough parking or designated handicapped or street parking

Nothing too fancy, but it was perfect for attending a concert around the corner at Electric City. You need to park offsite but that two is a very easy walk and parking is super cheap. I would definitely stay here again.

    Our room was prepaid through Expedia. Upon checking in, the hotel required a credit card on file and charged $112.79. They said the charge was for “incidentals” and would release the funds upon checkout. Well… that didn’t happen. They took the full amount and it has posted to my account. I’ve reached out to the hotel and keep getting the run around. AVOID THIS HOTEL (unless you want to pay double for a room).

    There is no on site parking. But weekends there are two side streets right at the hotel free parking on the street. We got a spot close to the front door. There are garage parking options close by. Rooms are spacious well kept and clean. Breakfast was good but since they make a bunch of food it does sit a while so pretty hard to make it all fresh. They had two different omelets. Cereals yogurt sausages and turkey sausage. Fresh cinnamon buns. Bread, muffins. Tea and coffee and white milk as well as chocolate. Plus orange and cranberry juice. So a good cariety

    When we got to that hotel, they apologized and said they told your hotel that they had called them six hours beforehand saying they had no rooms and they couldn’t walk people to their hotel This is absolutely ridiculous considering I’ve already been charged and I’m gonna pay for two hotel rooms that I couldn’t possibly get into Instead of just taking my feedback and discussing it at some meeting, can you please rectify this and give me my money back for Christ sakes

    We got to the hotel about an hour before check-in because we were heading to a football game. The woman behind the front desk told us we’d have to wait the hour, which I understood, but when I asked to use the bathroom to get changed, her attitude was rude and dismissive. She spoke under her breath about me, and when I asked what she said, she got defensive and told me she “wasn’t talking to me.” She also told me they “don’t check bags,” but I could “just leave them there,” which didn’t feel secure or professional. She wasn’t in uniform or wearing a name tag and seemed more like she was hanging out than working. Thankfully, we never saw her again, and everyone else at the hotel was wonderful. Still, that first encounter really set a bad tone for the start of our trip.

    Hotel canceled our reservations at 6 pm the night of which left us with no downtown options in Buffalo. They were overbooked. They moved 14 guests to a location outside of downtown which moved all of our plans. Hotel office blamed us for not getting there at 3 pm to confirm room. We had our bags in their office at 1 pm. It was the craziest experience. Hotel didn’t seem to be in great condition and would never trust myself to stay there again knowing what they did to multiple guest who all felt stranded and confused how they would let this happened sold out or not.

    Very close to metro station to travel (free) down to KeyBank Arena for Sabres games. Complimentary breakfast is fine for what it is. There is a good coffee place (over winter coffee) around the block for those who are after a real coffee. Staff are friendly and rooms very clean with daily service. Rooms are a good size with separate bedroom. If traveling as family with kids, would consider Niagara Falls as a more suitable location vs. Downtown if you are only visiting for Bills game.

    The room was next to the train, next to a road, and near the airport and there was nothing soundproofed, so it was loud for a lot of the evening. When I checked out, I was not asked a single question about our stay. Frankly, I felt completely dismissed. Normally this chain is really good, but our stay at this location is one that I will never do again.

    I was disappointed on my floor the hallway smelt bad. The front desk staff was not friendly or greeting. Breakfast was disappointing as well. The pancake machine was down. The man doing breakfast I asked for not French Vanilla creamer he states they were out until their delivery comes on Monday. They were out of cream cheese so he said, they had no yogurt. I went back down when breakfast was over to get a cup of coffee and there was a nice full bottle of French Vanilla Creamer. Breakfast is one of the highlights for me when I choose hotels so I was very disappointed to say the least. Other than that my stay was good.

    My one huge complaint about my stay is that there was not any parking available for our stay. We had to park down the street in a parking garage and walk a couple blocks to the hotel and the parking cost us $20 to stay for the day and over night. There should be some paid for parking available or at least have our parking validated.

    Every thing was good except for the fact there was not an onsite restaurant. You had to order from a restaurant and have food delivered to the hotel except for breakfast. Also, we were told that the shuttle does not transport customers to the airport. However the morning I left (4:30 am) I was asked by a shuttle driver, if I was going to the airport & was told the shuttle could take me. But, it was too late bc I had ordered an Uber. I had to use Uber bc since the driver was there waiting, I would have been charged for it even if I decided to ride the shuttle. Disappointed that I had been given conflicting messages regarding the shuttle. As I could have saved some money.

The breakfast is great but the person in charge of cleaning the area uses windex to spray the tables. That is not a great smell as you try and eat your breakfast. Soap and water would work just as easily. The rooms are very comfortable. There is no on site parking and the parking garage is a few blocks away.
