Top Downtown Hotel Reviews

The Hotel Saratoga, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"Shout out to the shuttle driver. When out of his way to provide transportation for us in a time of need."

Saratoga Casino Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was very nice but the shower had mold all around the bottom. The bathroom had motion sensor switches and the lights went off when I was showering. This is dangerous! They have a wonderful restaurant in the hotel but there is no place for a good cup of coffee. We love the Saratoga area and will be back."

Travelodge Inn & Suites by Wyndham Albany

8/10 Good

"I stayed here 2 weekends ago. The Manager and staff were very sweet and friendly. The bed was comfortable. But where it really failed was that people were smoking in their rooms and my room stank of smoke the whole weekend and the staff said they couldn't ask people to stop smoking. I find this unacceptable. I had to stay again this last weekznd and my room didn't reek. It made all the difference."

The Century House Latham - North Albany, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"The motel was not well lit and hard to find after dark. The check-in is easiest from the back, so it looked like the place was deserted, which it wasn’t. Better lighting could help a lot with that. Staff was friendly, especially Linda at breakfast. Breakfast was very good. The room was clean except for right by the entry. The mini fridge had a cup with juice in it and it looked like something was spilled on the counter just above that fridge, which was a little disconcerting, but the rest of the room was very clean, so maybe this was an oversight. 8/10 overall."
