Top Amherst Hotel Reviews

M Hotel Buffalo

M Hotel Buffalo

10/10 Excellent
"There was a large group while we were there, and kids were running around quite a bit. (Nothing against kids) We noticed food and wrappers around the hotel that went unchecked by the group (come on people, do better), but unfortunately were also not taken care of in a timely manner by hotel staff. (For example: things we noticed laying out in the morning along the path/route to the pool, were still not taken care of in the evening. (dropped food, wrappers, empty bottles, etc.) That being said, I am still leaving an overall 5 star review because your staff was very pleasant during our stay. Also, the rest of the hotel areas were very clean, and the direct pool yard was clean. It was the courtyard surrounding the pool that could have used a bit better monitoring and clean-up during the weekend we stayed. Breakfast was great! We would have loved the addition of waffles or pancakes, but in general it was a very nice spread. :) We would definitely consider staying again if we are in that area. Please consider adding a hot tub. That would be amazing!"

"The hotel grounds and common areas like entrance and foyer where in good condition and looked really nice. I’ll be at the motive was a bit outdated. But the room themselves were pretty low quality. They upgraded us to a larger room, which was nice, but the furniture is seating, bed, chairs, or all very old and uncomfortable. The hotel needs a lot of renovation. However, the price was fair given those issues."

"The vanity area is way too small for 2 or more people. The lighting is dim and it could use a small table and mirror near an outlet would be helpful. Otherwise it was a very good stay. Kudos to your breakfast staff. They go above and beyond to be helpful and very polite. Would definitely recommend."

"We enjoyed our overnight stay at the hotel. It was our first time to stay in Buffalo USA and at this specific location. The experience was excellent. All staff were friendly and very accommodating. It is an upscale hotel for sure. One big complaint we have though is that we were put on the same floor with unconsiderate people. Teenagers were none stop banging on doors, in and out of their hotel rooms, constant noise, yelling, laughing, moving of things and at one point a small understanding between a parent and a son. This went on until 2:30am. I supposed there were drunk adults too."
