Buffalo Airport Hotel
We were super appreciative of the shuttle driver or passenger that returned a camera and case to the front desk after we left in shuttle late night. Life saver.

M Hotel Buffalo
Everything was beautiful. Staff very kind and friendly. They are renovating rooms so bathroom was in need of repair but all fixtures working and we would stay again. I love this hotel and location was fantastic . Right off I90 and huge mall right beside hotel. Restaurants right across the road.

The room was great, but the staff could not have been more helpful. My son and I got stranded in Buffalo due to weather and everyone at the Hyatt Regency Buffalo took wonderful care of us.
